Answer:

Let x be the width of the rectangle.

Then according to problem, length=5x.

We know area of a rectangle=length*width =x*5x

Given: x*5x=125

=> 5x^2=125

=> x^2=> 125/5 =25

=>x=5

hence width is 5inches and length is 25inches

Write the equation of line in slope-intercept form :Line parallel to the y-axis that passes through the point (77,88) PLZ HELP

sammy [17]

A line parallel to the y-axis that passes through (77,88) is x = 77. There is no slope-intercept form of this equation if our coordinate system is based upon a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis.
