Answer:

x = 2

UV = 9 ft

VW = 6 ft

WU = 5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a figure can be represented as the sum of lengths of all of its sides. In this case we can write:

P = UV + VW + WU

Now, we can substitute the values which we have:

20 = 4x + 1 + 8 - x + 2x + 1

We can combine like terms...

20 = 5x + 10

5x = 10

x = 2

Since UV is represented by 4x + 1, we can substitute in x to find its length.

UV = 4x + 1

UV = 4(2) + 1

UV = 6 + 1

UV = 9

We can do the same for the other two sides:

VW = 8 - x

VW = 8 - 2

VW = 6

WU = 2x + 1

WU = 2(2) + 1

WU = 4 + 1

WU = 5

The graph shows the number of laps that Jan runs as her coach times her.
andriy [413]
Slope formula : (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
(5,10)...x2 = 5 and y2 = 10
now we sub and solve
slope = (10 - 4) / (5 - 2) = 6/3 = 2

The slope of the line is 2....and this is basically saying that Jan runs 2 laps every minute
