Y - 190 = 55(x - 2)....distribute thru the parenthesis
y - 190 = 55x - 110....now add 190 to both sides
y = 55x - 110 + 190..simplify
y = 55x + 80 <== slope intercept form (y = mx + b)
Answer:
Length = 12 inches
Width = 14 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is;
P = 2(L + W)
Where;
L is length
W is width
We are told that the length is 2 inches shorter than its width. Thus;
L = (W - 2)
Thus,perimeter is now;
P = 2(W - 2 + W)
P = 2(2W - 2)
P = 4W - 4
We are told that the perimeter is 52. Thus;
4W - 4 = 52
4W = 52 + 4
4W = 56
W = 56/4
W = 14 inches
From L = (W - 2) ;
L = 14 - 2
L = 12 inches
105/32
3 and 9/32
or 3+9/32
