Answer:

Let the length of the rectangle be 'l'

We have,

Perimeter of rectangle, P = 42mm.

$or, 2(l+b) = 42\\or, l +b = \frac{42}{2} = 21\\or, l + 20 = 21\\or, l = 1mm\\$

Area of rectangle = $lb = 1(20) = 20mm^{2}$

Answer:

20mm

Step-by-step explanation:

base=20mm

base x 2 because there are two long lines

20 x 2 = 40

42-40=2

amount needed on either side to balance

height=1mm

20 x 1 = 20mm

area = 20mm

Find each unit rate <br> 1)78mi on 3gal<br> 2)$52.50 in 7 hours<br> 3)416 mi in 8 hours

Andreas93 [3]

1) Unit Rate = 26:1
We already know that for every 3 gallons, you can travel 78 miles. Divide 78 by 3 to get 26. The 26 stands for how many miles you can travel on one gallon.

2) Unit Rate = $7.50:1
Since we already know that for every 7 hours, you earn $52.50, divide 52.50 by 7 to get 7.50. The 7.50 represents how much money you earn in 1 hour.

3) Unit Rate = 52:1
Since you can travel 416 miles in 8 hours, divide 416 by 8 to get 52. The 52 represents how many mile you can travel in 1 hour alone.

Here's a little hint too: (If I remember correctly) For unit rates, it's always going to be *any number* to 1. So even if it's a decimal or a negative, the other side of the rate always has to be 1 :)

Segment PH is graphed on the coordinate grid where P is (-31,8) and H is (29,-10). Point E is the midpoint of segment PH. If poi

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The coordinates of point A are (-11 , 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

- The coordinates of point P are (-31 , 8)

- The coordinates of point H are (29 , -10)

- Point E is the mid-point of segment PH

- The coordinates of the the mid-point are:

→ $x=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}$ and $y=\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}$
