Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a rectangle, so both sides are equal. Thus 2x+6=5x-9
SOLVE, SUBTRACT 2x
6=3x-9 THEN ADD 9
15=3x THEN divide by 3
5=x
Plug in x to either side 2(5)+6, to get side length of 16
Then area of a rectangle is lengthxwidth=AREA
substitute what you know 16(y)=48
Divide by 16, thus y=3
N + 1 = 4(n – 8)
Use distributive property for this part: 4(n – 8) ----> 4n - 32
n + 1 = 4n - 32
Get the variable on one side:
n + 1 = 4n - 32
-n -n
1= 3n - 32
Get the variable on its own:
1= 3n - 32
+32 +32
33 = 3n
Divide by 3 on both sides:
33/3 = 3n/3
n = 11
Answer:
y = -1/2x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x-1
This equation is in slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope
m=2
A line perpendicular will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal
m = -1/2
Using the slope intercept form
y = mx+b
y = -1/2x+b
and the point given (2,3)
3 = -1/2(2)+b
3 = -1+b
4 =b
y = -1/2x+4 is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the original line and contains (2,3)
Since 5 + 9 is 14 you can use ANY expression that has the same final value/ sum
