Answer:

y = 8/5x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-19 - 5) / (-10 - 5)

-24 / -15

= 8/5

Plug in the slope and a given point into y = mx + b, and solve for b

y = mx + b

5 = 8/5(5) + b

5 = 8 + b

-3 = b

Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b

y = 8/5x - 3

So, the equation is y = 8/5x - 3

Each side of a square is increased by 3 inches. The perimeter of the new square is 40 inches more than twice the length of the s
RUDIKE [14]

Length of side of new square is 17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Let the length of the side of the old square be x. Then length of side of new square = x + 3 and Perimeter of new square = 40 + 2x

Perimeter of a square = 4 × side

⇒ 4(x + 3) = 40 + 2x

⇒ 4x + 12 = 40 + 2x

⇒ 2x = 28

⇒ x = 14 inches

  • Step 2: Find length of side of the new square

⇒ x + 3 = 17 inches

A rectangle has perimeter 28cm. Its area is 42sq.cm. Determine the dimensions of the rectangle. Include a diagram in your soluti
yawa3891 [41]

The dimensions of the rectangle are: b=9.65 cm and h=4.35 cm or b=4.35 cm and h= 9.65 cm.

<h3>Quadrilaterals</h3>

There are different types of quadrilaterals, for example, square, rectangle, rhombus, trapezoid, and parallelogram.  Each type is defined accordingly to its length of sides and angles. For example, in a rectangle,  the opposite sides are equal and parallel and their interior angles are equal to 90°.

The area of a rectangle is equal to base x height (A=bh). The perimeter of a geometric figure is the sum of its sides. Thus, for a rectangle, the perimeter is 2b+2h.

<h3>System of Linear Equations</h3>

System of linear equations is the given term math for two or more equations with the same variables. The solution of these equations represents the point at which the lines intersect.

The question gives:

Perimeter=28cm

Area= 42 cm²

If the perimeter is the sum of all sides of the rectangle, you have:

Perimeter= 2b+2h=28

If the area of the rectangle is 42cm², you have:

Area=bh=42 cm²

You can write a system of linear equations.

2b+2h=28 (1)

bh=42 (2)

From equation 2, you have  b=\frac{42}{h}. Then, you can replace it in equation 1.

2*\frac{42}{h}+2h=28 \\ \\ 84+2h^2=28h\\ \\ 2h^2-28h+84=0 \; dividing\; by\; 2\\ \\ h^2-14h+42=0

Now, you should solve the quadratic equation.

h_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-14\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-14\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:42}}{2\cdot \:1}

h_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-14\right)\pm \:2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}

h_1=\frac{-\left(-14\right)+2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}=7+\sqrt{7}=9.65 cm

h_2=\frac{-\left(-14\right)-2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}=7-\sqrt{7}=4.35cm

If h1=9.65 cm, then b_1=\frac{42}{9.65} =4.35 cm, and if  h2=4.35 cm, then b_1=\frac{42}{4.35} =9.65 cm.

Question 1 :<br><br> what means to make a fraction as simple as possible? we also call it reducing.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
This means making the fraction reduced to its lowest term
example= 
make the fraction 18xz/4z simpler
the z cancels each other making it remaining 18x/4
2 can go in x as in 18
=9x/2
so the simpler form of the fraction 18xz/4z
=9x/2
