Answer:
y = -2x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope: (4-2)/5-1) = 2/4 = 1/2
Slope of the perpendicular line: -2
y-intercept: 2 - (-2)(1) = 4
Side 1 = short side = 2x-3
side 2 = longer side = (short side) + 6 = (2x-3)+6 = 2x+3
side 3 = side 2 = 2x+3
Side 2 and side 3 are the longer two congruent sides
Add up the three sides and set them equal to the given perimeter of 33. Solve for x
(side1)+(side2)+(side3) = perimeter
(2x-3)+(2x+3)+(2x+3) = 33
(2x+2x+2x) + (-3+3+3) = 33
6x+3 = 33
6x+3-3 = 33-3
6x = 30
6x/6 = 30/6
x = 5
If x = 5, then the longer sides are 2*x+3 = 2*5+3 = 10+3 = 13 inches each
(note: the short side is 2*x-3=2*5-3=10-3 = 7 inches)
Answer: 13 inches
Answer: The length of the rectangle is 35 in.
The width of the rectangle is 28 in.

Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
The formula for the area, "A", of a rectangle:
Area (A) = length (L) * width (w) ;
that is: " A = L * w " ;
A = 980 in² (given);
ratio of the length to the width is: " 5 : 4 " (given);
→ Find the length (L) and the width (w).
_________________________________________________________
→ 980 in² = (5x) * (4x) ;
in which: " 980 in² " is the area of the triangle;
" 5x" = the length (L) of the rectangle, for which we shall solve;
" 4x" = the width (w) of the rectangle, for which we shall solve.
_______________________________________________________
If we find solve for "x" ; we can solve for "5x" and "4x" (the "length" and the "width", respectively); by plugging in the solved value for "x" ;
_______________________________________________________
→ 980 in² = (5x) * (4x) ;
↔ (5x) * (4x) = 980 in² ;
→ (5x) * (4x) = (5) * (4) * (x) * (x) = 20 * x² = 20x² ;
→ 20x² = 980 ;
Divide each side by "10" ; by canceling out a "0" on each side of the equation:
→ 2x² = 98 ;
Now, divide each side of the equation by "2" ;
→ 2x² / 2 = 98 / 2 ;
to get:
→ x² = 49 ;
Now, take the "positive square root" of each side of the equation; (since a "length or width" cannot be a "negative value") ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
→ ⁺√(x²) = √49 ;
to get:
→ x = 7 ;
______________________________________________________
Now, we can solve for the "length" and the "width" ;
→ The length is: "5x" ;
5x = 5(7) = " 35 in " ;
______________________________________________________
→ The width is: "4x" ;
4x = 4(7) = "28 in."
______________________________________________________
Let us check our answer:
→ A = L * w ;
→ 980 in² = ? 35 in. * 28 in. ?? ;
Using a calculator: "35 * 28 = 980" . Yes! ;
____________________________________________________
{ Also note: " in * in = in² " ? Yes! } .

Answer:
Her statement is not correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is not correct because if you simplify 10/4 it comes out to 5/2 therefore 5/2=5/2.
Beth and May run the same amount.
