Answer:

Option D: 6x-14 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of the box = L = 2x-2

Width of the box = W = x-5

Perimeter is defined by the sum of length of all sides of the box.

Perimeter of the box = P = 2L + 2W

Perimeter of box = 2(2x-2) + 2(x-5)

Perimeter = 4x-4+2x-10

Perimeter = 6x-14

The perimeter of the box is 6x-14.

Hence,

Option D: 6x-14 is the correct answer.

The formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the point-slope form of the equation of a line where m is the slope of the line and (x, y) and

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The slope of a line that includes the points (4, -2) and (5, 0) is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the point-slope form of the equation of a line where m is the slope of a line.

The line must include the points (4, -2) and (5, 0). So, being:

(x,y)= (4,-2)
(x1,y1)= (5, 0)

and replacing in the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

-2-0=m(4-5)

You solve the equation for m and get:

-2=m*(-1)

$m=\frac{-2}{-1}$

m=2

The slope of a line that includes the points (4, -2) and (5, 0) is 2
