The length of a rectangular garden is 6 more than its width. If the perimeter is 32 feet, what is the width and the area of the

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

${\fbox{ \sf{Width \: of \: a \: rectangular \: garden \: = 5 \: feet}}}$

$\boxed{ \sf{ \: Area \: of \: a \: rectangular \: garden = 55 {ft}^{2}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\star$ Let the width of a rectangular garden be 'w'

$\star$ Length of a rectangular garden = 6 + w

$\star$ Perimeter of a rectangular garden = 32 feet

 $\longrightarrow$ Finding the width of a rectangular garden :

$\boxed{ \sf{ \: Perimeter \: of \: a \: rectangle \: = \: 2(length + width}}$

$\mapsto{ \text{32 = 2(6 + w + w)}}$

$\text{Step \: 1 \: : Collect \: like \: terms}$

Like terms are those which have the same base

$\mapsto{ \text{32 = 2(6 + 2w) }}$

$\text{Step \: 2 \: : Distribute \: 2 \: through \: the \: parentheses}$

$\mapsto{ \text{32 = 12 + 4w}}$

$\text{Step \: 3 \: : Swap \: the \: sides \: of \: the \: equation}$

$\mapsto{ \text{4w + 12 = 32}}$

$\text{Step \: 4 \: : Move \: 12 \: to \: right \: hand \: side \: and \: change \: its \: sign}$

$\mapsto{ \text{4w = 32 - 12}}$

$\text{Step \: 5 \: : Subtract \: 12 \: from \: 32}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{4w = 20}}$

$\text{Step \: 6 \: : Divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 4}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \frac{4w}{4} = \frac{20}{4}}}$

$\text{Step \: 7 \: : Calculate}$

$\mapsto{ \text{w = 5}}$

Width of a rectangular garden = 5 feet

$\longrightarrow$ Substituting / Replacing the value of w in 6 + w in order to find the length of a rectangular garden

$\mapsto{ \sf{Length = 6 + w = 6 + 5 = \bold{11 \: feet} }}$

$\longrightarrow$ Finding the area of a rectangular garden having length of 11 feet and width of 5 feet :

$\boxed{ \sf{Area \: of \: a \: rectangle = length \:∗ \: width}}$

$\mapsto{ \text{Area \: = \: 11 \: ∗ \: 5}}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{Area \: = 55 \: {ft}^{2} }}$

Area of a rectangular garden = 55 ft²

Hope I helped!

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE WRITE A EQUATION OF THIS LINE!!

serious [3.7K]

Answer (assuming it can be in slope-intercept form):

y = -x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When knowing the slope of a line and its y-intercept, you can write an equation to represent it in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b format. Substitute the m and b for real values.

1) First, find the slope of the equation, or m. Pick any two points from the line and substitute their x and y values into the slope formula, $m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ . I chose the points (0, -1) and (-1, 0):

$m = \frac{(0)-(-1)}{(-1)-(0)} \\m = \frac{0+1}{-1-0} \\m = \frac{1}{-1} \\m = -1$

Thus, the slope is -1.

2) Now, find the y-intercept, or b. The y-intercept of a line is the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. By reading the graph, we can see that the line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,-1), therefore that must be the y-intercept.

3) Now, substitute the found values into the y = mx + b formula. Substitute -1 for m and -1 for b:

$y = -x -1$

According to the graph, what is the experimental probability of selecting the letter E?

Daniel [21]

The experimental probability of letter E is: 3/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given diagram is the number of outcomes for each letter is given

We have to find the total number of outcomes for finding the experimental probability of letter E

So,

Total outcomes = n(S) = 5+12+8+10+6+9 = 50

Number of outcomes for Letter E = n(E) = 6

So the experimental probability will be:

$P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}\\\\=\frac{6}{50}\\\\= \frac{3}{25}$

Hence,

The experimental probability of letter E is: 3/25
