Mathematics

Answer:

Assuming the length to be x and the width to be y.

Since the area is 64cm, hence

x*y = 64 (equation 1)

Since the perimeter is 40cm, hence

x + x + y + y = 40

2x + 2y = 40

2(x + y) = 2(20)

x + y = 20 (equation 2)

Hence by using simultaneous equation,

x = 20 - y (equation 3)

Substituting equation 3 into equation 1, we get

(20-y)*y=64

20y-y^2=64

Tidying up the equation,

y^2 - 20y + 64 = 0

By using factorisation,

(y-16)(y-4)=0

y=16 or y=4

By substituting y=16 into equation 1,

x*16=64

x = 4

By substituting y = 4 into equation 1,

x*4=64

x=16

Therefore,

The length is 4 cm while the width is 16 cm.

OR

The length is 16 cm while the width is 4cm.

Hope this helps!!

ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIST !!!! What is the slope of this table?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer: Slope is m = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-You have exactly four points on a table:

(3,2) (6,4) (9,6) (12,8)

-Use the slope formula and use any two points from those four points in order to find the slope:

m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}

-The two points I use are  (3, 2)  and (6,4 ) for the equation:

m = \frac{4 - 2}{6-3}

m= \frac{2}{3}

So, the slope of the table is \frac{2}{3}.
