Step-by-step explanation:

let the length and breadth's ratio be 4x and 3x

Given, 

area of rectangle = 192 in²

we know,

Area of rectangle = L × B/w 

after inserting the values in the formula we got,

→ 4x × 3x = 192 

→ 12x² = 192

→ x² = 192/12 = 16

→ x² = 16

→ x = √16 = 4

→ x = 4

therefore , length and breadth/width are,

length = 4x = 4×4 = 16

width = 3x = 3×4 = 12

hence length is 16 in. and width is 12in.

hope this answer helps you dear.....take care and may u have a great day ahead!

What is the equation of this line in standard form? 8x−7y=−25 8x−9y=23 8x−9y=−23 9x−8y=23 Number graph ranging from negative fiv

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The equation of line is:

$8x-9y=-23$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a graph is a that passes through two points:

$(-4,-1)$ and $(\dfrac{1}{2},3)$

We know that the equation of line passing through two points:

$(a,b)$ and $(c,d)$ is given by:

$y-b=\dfrac{d-b}{b-a}\times (x-a)$

Here we have:

$(a,b)=(-4,-1)$ and $(c,d)=(\dfrac{1}{2},3)$

Hence, the equation of line is:

$y-(-1)=\dfrac{3-(-1)}{\dfrac{1}{2}-(-4)}\times (x-(-4))\\\\y+1=\dfrac{3+1}{\dfrac{1}{2}+4}\times (x+4)\\\\y+1=\dfrac{4}{\dfrac{9}{2}}\times (x+4)\\\\y+1=\dfrac{4\times 2}{9}\times (x+4)\\\\y+1=\dfrac{8}{9}\times (x+4)\\\\9\times (y+1)=8\times (x+4)\\\\9y+9=8x+8\times 4\\\\9y+9=8x+32\\\\8x-9y=9-32\\\\8x-9y=-23$

Hence the equation of line is:

$8x-9y=-23$
