If the length= v
Then the width=v-2

Area= length x width
48= v(v-2)
48= v^2 -2v
v^2 -2v -48=0
(v-8)(v+6)=0
then v= 8 and v=-6
Since length cannot be negative so v=8
And width=v-2
= 8-2=6

So length= 8 m
Width= 6 m

Find the slope, or rate of change, from the graph.
TEA [102]

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is rise over run

or y change divided by x change

to find the slope you need to find points on the graph that meet exact points on the graph

i see (0,1) and (2,0)

to find slope without graph it would be (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

in this case (0-1)/(2-0)

=-1/2

with graph you can count that it goes down -1 squares and to the right 2 squares

hope this helps

Are the ratios 3:5 and 2:4 equivalent?<br> yes or no
jeyben [28]

Answer:

No, they are not.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio can be written as a fraction. So 3:5 is the same as 3/5 and 2:4 is the same as 2/4.

3/5 = 2/4

0.6 = 0.5 INCORRECT

As you can see, the both don't equal the same numbers, so they aren't equivalent.

Please help me solve for angle B!!
Vaselesa [24]

I believe it is 50 degrees

Explanation:

180-115 = 65 degrees

Since the base angles of of an isosceles triangle are equal,

Angle C =angle A= 65 degrees

65 times 2 = 130

180-130=50

50 degrees=measure of angle B

Hope this helps
