Answer:

  • 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Perimeter formula:</u>

  • P = 2(l + w)

<u>Given:</u>

  • l = 3x - 2
  • w = 2x
  • P = 56

<u>Find the value of x:</u>

  • 2(3x - 2 + 2x) = 56
  • 5x - 2 = 28
  • 5x = 30
  • x = 6

<u>BC is parallel side to AD and is:</u>

  • BC = AD = 2*6 = 12

Which point is on the graph ofx=13(y−18)in the coordinate plane?
natulia [17]

The points on a graph are the points that lie on the graph

The ordered pair on the graph of \mathbf{x =\frac{1}{3}(y - \frac 18)} would be \mathbf{( \frac{5}8},2)

<em>The points are not given; so, I will give a general explanation</em>

The equation is given as:

\mathbf{x =\frac{1}{3}(y - \frac 18)}

Assume that the value of y, is 2

The equation becomes

\mathbf{x = \frac 13(2 - \frac 18)}

Take LCM

\mathbf{x = \frac 13(\frac{16-1}8)}

\mathbf{x = \frac 13(\frac{15}8)}

Divide

\mathbf{x = \frac{5}8}

So, the ordered pair would be \mathbf{( \frac{5}8},2)

The equations were multiplied by constants and added together to determine that the value of x in the system of equations is –20
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1. 1/5x - 1/3y = -1

2. -3/4x +1/3y = 12

Multiplying equation 1 by 15 and equation 2 by 12

3. 3x - 5y = -15

4. -9x + 4y = 144

and then Solving both equations simultaneously, since x = -20 as stated in the question and by confirmation,

Using equation 3 or 4 to solve for y,

3(-20) - 5y = -15

-5y = 60 - 15

y = 45/-5

= -9

y = -9

What is the slope and equation of a horizontal line ?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a horizontal line is y = b where b is the y-intercept. Since the slope of a horizontal line is 0, the general formula for the standard form equation, y = mx + b becomes y = 0x +b y = b. Also ,since the line is horizontal, every point on that line has the exact same y value. This y-value is therefore also the y-intercept.
