Answer:

-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use rise/run. The rise (y values) goes from 5 to -3. You subtract 8 for this. The run (x values) goes from 2 to 8. You add 6 for this. the proportion is -8/6, which can be simplified to -4/3.

Therefore, the slope is -4/3!

A square patio has a perimeter of (8x + 48) feet. What is the length of the patio?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

2x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a square patio, then each side of the patio has the same lengt. As we know the perimeter of a square is the sum of all sides. Then to know the length of the patio we just need to divide by 4 the perimeter.

$\dfrac{(8x+48)}{4}=\dfrac{8x}{4}+\dfrac{48}{4}=2x+12$
