Step-by-step explanation:

Let w=width

And let l=length

Perimeter is the distance all the way around the outside of the shape. Add up all the sides to find it.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width of the rectangle=x

the length=x+2.3

Since perimeter=28.6

We know that perimeter of a rectangle is given by

P=2(l+w)

28.6=2(x+2.3+x)

28.6=2(2x+2.3)

28.6=4x+4.6

28.6-4.6=4x

4x=24

x=24/4=6

Therefore width is 6inches and length is 8.3inches

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that goes through (12, 4) and (20,8).

spayn [35]

Answer:

Equation in slope-intercept form that goes through (12, 4) and (20,8) is: $y = \frac{1}{2}x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points are:

$(x_1,y_1) = (12,4)\\(x_2,y_2) = (20,8)$

Slope intercept form of line is given as:

$y = mx+b$

Here m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Slope of a line is calculated by the formula:

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Putting the values

$m = \frac{8-4}{20-12}\\m = \frac{4}{8}\\m=\frac{1}{2}$

Putting the value of slope in slope-intercept form we get

$y = \frac{1}{2}x+b$

To find the value of b, any one point will be put in the equation

Putting the first point (12,4) in the equation

$4 = \frac{1}{2}(12) + b\\4 = 6+b\\b = 4-6\\b = -2$

Putting the value of b

$y = \frac{1}{2}x-2$

Hence,

Equation in slope-intercept form that goes through (12, 4) and (20,8) is: $y = \frac{1}{2}x-2$
