Answer:

Mark me as brainlist

Step-by-step explanation:

P = Perimeter            

L = Length          

W = Width

Perimeter of rectangle = L + L + W + W        

or P = 2L + 2W

You know:

P = 36 inches

L = 2W          [length is(=) 2 times it's width]

W = ?

P = 2L + 2W    

Substitute/plug in what you know, plug in 2W for L since L = 2W

36 = 2(2W) + 2W         Simplify

36 = 4W + 2W

36 = 6W        Divide 6 on both sides

6 = W              Now that you know the width, you can find the length:

L = 2W

L = 2(6)

L = 12

L = 12 in

W = 6 in

PROOF

P = 2(12) + 2(6)

P = 24 + 12

P = 36

A line passes through the point (6,-3) and has a slope of -3/2 write an equation in slope intercept form
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = - \frac{3}{2}, hence

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (6, - 3 ) into the partial equation

- 3 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 3 + 9 = 6

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + 6 ← equation in slope- intercept form
