Answer:

The side lengths of the tile are 8 Inches and 10.5 Inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a parallelogram = 2(a + b)

Let

a = shorter side

b = longer side

b = a + 2.5 inches

The perimeter of each tile is 37 inches

Perimeter of a parallelogram = 2(a + b)

37 = 2{a + (a + 2.5)}

37 = 2{a + a + 2.5}

37 = 2(2a + 2.5)

37 = 4a + 5

37 - 5 = 4a

32 = 4a

Divide both sides by 4

a = 32/4

= 8

a = 8 inches

b = a + 2.5 inches

= 8 + 2.5

= 10.5 inches

b = 10.5 inches

The side lengths of the tile are 8 Inches and 10.5 Inches.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The amount of change he should received is

$100 - $56.875

= $43.125

= $43.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of window trim = 32 and 1/2 ft

Cost per foot = $1.75

Amount paid = $100

Total cost of window trim = 32.5×1.75 = $56.875

The amount of change he should received is

$100 - $56.875

= $43.125

= $43.13

Line GH contains points G(–2, 6) and H(5, –3). What is the slope of ?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>-\frac{9}{7}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

G(–2, 6) and H(5, –3)

The slope is

m = -3 - 6 / 5 -- 2 = - 9 /7

Hope this helps you
