Answer:

Step (2) is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by :

A = length × width

Area = 8+12x

Width = 4

Step 1: 8 + 12x  

Step 2: 4(2) + 4(3x)  

Step 3: 4(2 + 3x)  

Step 4: Dimensions of the rectangle are 4 and 2 + 3x.

It means he has done a mistake in step (2). The correct step should be 4(2) + 4(3x).

A 160lb person has 4.6 quarts of blood what is the direct variation
zhenek [66]
So weight=x
blood=y

we got that when
y=kx
when y=4.6, then x=160
4.6=160k
divide both sides by 160
0.02875=k

the direct variation is
y=0.02875x

so plug in x and get y

the answers in (x,y) form is
(0,0)
(50,1.4375)
(75,2.15625)
(100,2.875)
(125,3.59375)

A line passes through the points (3, −1) and (−5, 3) . What is the point-slope form of the line
aleksandrvk [35]
Hello here is a solution:
equation for the line is :   y = ax+b    a : slope
let A(3;-1)   B(-5;3)
a= ((3)-(-1))/(-5)-(3))
a= 4/-8
a=-1/2
y=(-1/2) x+b
- 1 = (-1/2)(3)+b
b= 1/2
