Answer:

72 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be equal to the width of the rectangle.

Let l be equal to the length of the rectangle.

\frac{1}{2}l=w

Plug in 12 inches as the length

\frac{1}{2}(12)=w\\6=w

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 6 inches.

A=lw

Plug in 12 inches as the length and 6 inches as the width.

A=(12)(6)\\A=72

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 72 inches².

I hope this helps!

Answer:

x=6/11

x≈0.545

Step-by-step explanation:

They are corresponding angles, so their measurements are congruent to each other. Therefore, you can set them equal to each other and solve for x:

19x+6=30x

6=11x

6/11=x

x=6/11

x≈0.545

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation 0=(x−4)(x+2)?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

x = 4,

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

( x - 4 ) ( x + 2 ) = 0

Find out when the equation is 0,

When x = 4,

substitute in 4 for x,

( 4 - 4 ) ( 4 + 2 ) = 0

(0) ( 6) = 0 (any number multiplied by 0 is 0).

When x = -2

Substitue in -2 for x,

( -2 - 4 ) ( -2 + 2 ) = 0

(-6) (0) = 0 (again, any number multiplied by 0 is 0).

write the slope- intercept form of the equation of the line parallel to - x+5y=25, passing through the point (-5,-5). simplify
Olenka [21]
To find the equation of a line that is parallel to your original equation and goes through a certain point on a graph, here's what you need to know:
First you need to find the slope of your original equation.
To do that, you need to convert it to slope intercept form (y = mx+b).
Add the x over, and then divide everything by 5 to get the y by itself.
Here's what that would look like (without the small steps that I mentioned):
-x + 5y = 25
5y = x + 25
y = 1/5x + 5

That's the original equation rewritten in slope intercept form.
The m represents the slope, so this equation's slope is 1/5.

Because you are given a point, and now you have a slope, the best and easiest route is using point slope form.
I've seen different versions of the equation base but I prefer y - y(sub1) = m(x - x(sub1))
But since I can't use subscripts in this, I'll use the one with h and k. The h is the x value of the point, and the k is the y value.
(h,k)
Then just substitute the values in and solve for y.
y - k = m(x - h)
y + 5 = 1/5(x + 5)
y + 5 = 1/5x + 1
y = 1/5x - 4

Your final answer is
y = 1/5x - 4
You can double check by using a graph. If the slopes are the same, the lines should be parallel.

I hope that helps. If anything didn't make sense, feel free to ask me.
