Answer:

108 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle, A = length, l × width, w

Perimeter of a rectangle = (2 × length) + (2 × width)

42 cm = 2l + 2w

<em>but</em><em> </em>length = w + 3cm

42 cm = 2(w + 3cm) + 2w

42 cm = 2w + 6cm + 2w

42 cm = 6cm + 4w

4w = (42 - 6) cm

4w = 36 cm

》w = 9cm

》l = w + 3cm = 9cm + 3cm

l = 12 cm

Area = 12 × 9 = 108 cm²

What is the equation of a line parallel to y=1/2×+6 that passes through (-4,1)

IgorC [24]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

$y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{1}{2}}x+6\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/2 and passes through (-4 , 1)

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m} ~=~ \cfrac{1}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{ \cfrac{1}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-4)}) \\\\\\ y-1=\cfrac{1}{2}(x+4)\implies y-1=\cfrac{1}{2}x+2\implies y=\cfrac{1}{2}x+3$
