Answer:

48 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, make an equation for the perimeter. W is the width and since the length is three times the width it is 3W. W+3W+W+3W=32. Add like terms and you get 8W=32. 32 divided by 8 is 4 so the width is four. 4x3 is 12 so the length is 12. you get area by multiply length and width so 12x4 is 48.

The variable y varies jointly with x and w when y = - 42, x = 2, and w = -3.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

k = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

given y varies jointly with x and w then the equation relating them is

y = kxw ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition when y = - 42, x = 2 and w = - 3 , then

- 42 = k × 2 × - 3

- 42 = - 6k ( divide both sides by - 6 )

7 = k

constant of variation is k = 7

Answer: $\bold{\sqrt{2}-15\sqrt{3}}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$.\quad \sqrt{128}-5\sqrt{27}+2\sqrt{32}-3\sqrt{75}\\\\=\sqrt{\underline{2\cdot 2}\cdot \underline{2\cdot 2}\cdot \underline{2\cdot 2}\cdot 2}-5\sqrt{\underline{3\cdot 3}\cdot 3}+2\sqrt{\underline{2\cdot 2}\cdot \underline{2\cdot 2}\cdot 2}-3\sqrt{2\cdot \underline{5\cdot 5}}\\\\=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\sqrt{2}-3\cdot 5\sqrt{3}+2\cdot 2\cdot 2\sqrt{2}-5\cdot 3\sqrt{2}\\\\=8\sqrt{2}-15\sqrt{3}+8\sqrt{2}-15\sqrt{2}\\\\=\sqrt{2}-15\sqrt{3}$
