Answer:

$y = 4x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$x = 44$

$y = 176$

Required

Determine the relationship between x and y

First, we calculate the unit rate, using:

$y = kx$

Where k is the unit rate.

Substitute 176 for y and 44 for y

$176 = k * 44$

Divide both sides by 44

$\frac{176}{44} = \frac{44*k}{44}$

$\frac{176}{44} = k$

$4 = k$

$k = 4$

Substitute 4 for k in $y = kx$

$y = 4x$

Hence, the relationship between x and y is: $y = 4x$

Answer: Perimeter = 2(L + W) and

as a simplified expression is, 8x + 2

Step-by-step explanation: The length is represented by L and the width is represented by W in the expression above.

However, since we have been given the sides of the rectangle as x + 2 and 3x - 1, we shall substitute for the values of these in the expression representing the perimeter.

2(L + W) can now be written as

2( {x + 2} + {3x - 1} )

2(x + 2 + 3x - 1)

By collecting like terms, we now have

2(4x + 1)

8x + 2.

The expression can now be simplified as 8x + 2
