Answer:

The dimensions of rectangle are:

Width = 15 inches

Length = 82 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle = 1944 inches

Let

Width of rectangle = w

Length of rectangle = w+67

We need to find the dimensions (length and width) of the carpet

The formula used will be: Perimeter\:of\:rectangle=2(Length+Width)

Putting values and finding dimensions

Perimeter\:of\:rectangle=2(Length+Width)\\194=2(w+67+w)\\194=2(2w+67)\\194=4w+134\\Swirching\:sides\\4w+134=197\\Subtracting\:134\:on\:both\:sides\\4w+134-134=194-134\\4w = 60\\Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:4\\\frac{4w}{4}=\frac{60}{4}\\w=15

So, we get w = 15

Now, finding length : w+67 = 15+67 = 82

Therefore the dimensions of rectangle are:

Width = 15 inches

Length = 82 inches

Marina spent $13.50 at the grocery store. She bought pears, kiwis, and pineapples. Pears cost $0.50 each, pineapples cost $1.50
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Number of pineapples = 10

Number of pears = 10 + 9 = 19

Number of kiwis = 10 - 2 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Money = $ 13.5

Cost of a pear = $ 0.5

Cost of a pineapple = $ 1.5

Cost of a kiwi = $ 0.3

let the number of pineapple = p  

Number of pears = p + 9

Number of kiwis = p - 2

Cost is

0.5 (p + 9) + 0.15 p + 0.3 (p - 2) = 13.5

0.5 p + 4.5 + 0.15 p + 0.3 p - 0.6 = 13.5  

0.95 p = 9.6

p = 10

So, number of pineapples = 10

Number of pears = 10 + 9 = 19

Number of kiwis = 10 - 2 = 8

a line passes through point (-2,5) and has a slope of 2/3 points a (x,3) and b ( -2, y) lie on the line what is the value of y a
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The value of y is 5 , and The value of x is - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The line passes through point ( - 2, 5)

The slope of line is m =  \frac{2}{3}

Equation of line is written as

y - y_1 = m × (x - x_1)

Since line passes through line ( - 2 , 5 ) and have slope \frac{2}{3}

So, y - 5 =   \frac{2}{3}  × (x + 2)

Or, 3 × ( y - 5 ) = 2 × ( x + 2 )

Or, 3 y - 15 = 2 x + 4

Or, 3 y - 2 x - 19 = 0 is the equation of line

Now points ( x , 3 ) lies on the line 3 y - 2 x - 19 = 0

So, 3 × 3 - 2 x - 19 = 0

or, 9 - 2 x - 19 = 0

or, 2 x = - 10

∴  x = - \frac{10}{2}

I.e x = - 5

Again points ( - 2 , y )  lies on the line 3 y - 2 x - 19 = 0

So, 3 × y + 2 × 2 - 19 = 0

Or,  3 × y + 4 -19 = 0

or, 3 y = 15

∴  y = \frac{15}{3}

I.e y = 5

Hence The value of y is 5 , and The value of x is - 5   .  Answer
