Answer:

Let width of rectangle be x cm.

3x+x+3x+x=39

8x=39

x=39÷8

=39/8

=4/7/8

3x=39/8×3

=117/8

=14/5/8

Hence, length=14/5/8cm while width=4/7/8cm.

Rewrite this radicand as two factors, one of which is a perfect square.

seropon [69]

Answer:

$2 \sqrt{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) rewrite 60 as it's prime factors.

$\sqrt{2 \times 2 \times 3 \times } 5$

2) group the smae prime factors into pairs.

$\sqrt{(2 \times 2)} \times 3 \times 5$

3) Rewrite each pair in exponent form.

$\sqrt{ {2}^{2} \times 3 \times 5 }$

4) use this role:

$\sqrt{ {x}^{2} } = x$

$2 \sqrt{3 \times 5}$

5) Simplify.

$4 \sqrt{15}$

So, therefor, the answer is option 1.

A line has a slope of -4 and passes through the point (2,-5) which is the equation of the line

dimulka [17.4K]

We will be using the Point Slope formula which is $y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )$

The information we are given is that m = -4 and the point is (2,-5), so we can input it into the equation.

$y- (-5) = -4(x-2)$

This simplifies into $y+5 = -4x +8$

Then we can subtract 5 from each side to get the answer:

$y = 4x+3$
