Answer:

2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient y²-y¹/x²-x¹=4-2/4-(-3)

=2/7

{Taking (x¹,y,¹)=(-3,2)

and(x²-y²)=(4,4)

Solve the system by the elimination method. <br> x + y - 6 = 0<br> x - y - 8 = 0
shepuryov [24]
X+y=6 --> Equation 1
x-y=8 --> Equation 2
Equation 1 - Equation 2 =
2y =-2
y = -1

x+y = 6 --> Plug y value into equation
x + (-1) = 6
x-1 = 6
x = 7

y = -1, x = 7

Answer:

The smallest possible perimeter of the triangle, rounded to the nearest tenth is 72.4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side

Let

x ------> the length of  the remaining side

Applying the triangle inequality theorem

1) x+x > 30

2x > 30

x > 15 in

The perimeter is equal to

P=30+2x

<em>Verify each case</em>

1) For P=41.0 in

substitute in the formula of perimeter and solve for x

41.0=30+2x

2x=41.0-30

x=5.5 in

Is not a solution because the value of x must be greater than 15 inches

2) For P=51.2 in

substitute in the formula of perimeter and solve for x

51.2=30+2x

2x=51.2-30

x=10.6 in

Is not a solution because the value of x must be greater than 15 inches

3) For P=72.4 in

substitute in the formula of perimeter and solve for x

72.4=30+2x

2x=72.4-30

x=21.2 in

Could be a solution because the value of x is greater than 15 inches

4) For P=81.2 in

substitute in the formula of perimeter and solve for x

81.2=30+2x

2x=81.2-30

x=25.6 in

Could be a solution because the value of x is greater than 15 inches

therefore

The smallest possible perimeter of the triangle, rounded to the nearest tenth is 72.4 in

The length of a rectangle exceeds its width by 3 inches. The area of the rectangle is 70
Semenov [28]

Answer:

70= (x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

the length of the rectangle  its width by 3 inches, if the width is x,the length will be x+3. so A=LW= 70

To find= 70= (x+3)x

x= 7 or -10
