Answer:

Dimensions of rectangle = <u>23 cm x 5 cm</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations we can form</u>

  • Perimeter of 56 cm

⇒ 2L + 2W = 56

⇒ L + W = 28

  • Length is 8 more than 3 times its width

⇒ L = 3W + 8

<u>Substitute in previous equation</u>

⇒ 3W + 8 + W = 28

⇒ 4W = 20

⇒ W = <u>5 cm</u>

<u></u>

⇒ L = 28 - 5 = <u>23 cm</u>

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (3,-2) and (3, 4).The answer is x = 3. I'm just wondering how my textbo
Leviafan [203]

Given two points. we can find the equation of a line passing through the points

The formula to be used is:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_!}=\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_!}

where

x_1=3,y_!=-2,x_2=3,y_2=4\frac{4-(-2)}{3-3}=\frac{y-(-2)}{x-3}

=>

\frac{6}{0}=\frac{y+2}{x-3}

The next step is to cross multiply

6(x-3)=0(y+2)

=>

6(x-3)=0

Divide both sides by 6 and make x the subject

x=3
