Width of rectangle = x
Length =3x+7
Perimeter of rectangle = 158cm
2(l+w)=158
2(3x+7+x)=158
2(4x+7)=158
8x+14=158
8x=158-14
x=144/8
x=18
Therefore the width of the rectangle is 18cm
Length=3x+18+7
54+7=61cm
Area=lxw
=61x18
=1098^2

What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, for the line that passes through the point (2, −3) and is perpendicular to the li
diamong [38]

Answer:

The equation is;

y = (-x-23)/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be given as y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

for y = 25x + 4

m is 25

Now, we need the slope of a line perpendicular to this,

If two lines are perpendicular, the result of the product of their slopes is -1

m1 * m2 = -1

25 * m2 = -1

m2 = -1/25

Mathematically, we have the slope in the point slope form as ;

y+3 = -1/25 (x - 2)

y = -x/25 + 2/25

y = -x/25 + 2/25 - 3

y = -x/25 -73/25

The length of a rectangle is the width minus 8 units. The area of the rectangle is 9 units. What is the length, in units, of the
frez [133]

Length of rectangle is 1 unit  

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that  

Length of a rectangle is width minus 8 units.

Area of rectangle = 9 square units

Need to calculate the length of rectangle.

Let us assume width of rectangle = x

As Length is width minus 8,  

Length of the rectangle = x – 8

\text{ Area of rectangle }=\text{ width of rectangle }\times \text{ Length of the rectangle }

\text{ Area of rectangle }= x\times (x-8)

\text { Area of rectangle }=\left(x^{2}-8 x\right)

As given that area of rectangle = 9 square units

\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow x^{2}-8 x=9} \\\\ {\Rightarrow x^{2}-8 x-9=0}\end{array}

On solving above quadratic equation for x, we get

\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow x^{2}-9 x+x-9=0} \\\\ {\Rightarrow x(x-9)+1(x-9)=0} \\\\ {\Rightarrow (x-9)(x+1)=0}\end{array}

When x-9 =9, x = 9

When x + 1 = 0, x = -1

As width cannot be negative, so considering x = 9  

\text{ Length of rectangle }= x-8 = 9-8 = 1 \text{ unit }

Hence, Length of rectangle is 1 unit.
