Answer:

  • Length = 17 inches

  • Width = 12 inches

⠀

Step-by-step explanation:

⠀

As it is given that, the length of a rectangle is 5 in longer than its width and the perimeter of the rectangle is 58 in and we are to find the length and width of the rectangle. So,

⠀

Let us assume the width of the rectangle as x inches and therefore, the length will be (x + 5) inches .

⠀

Now, <u>According to the Question :</u>

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad { \pmb{\frak {2 ( Length + Breadth )= Perimeter_{(Rectangle)} }}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{2 ( x + 5 + x )= 58 }}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{2 ( 2x + 5  )= 58 }}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{ 4x + 10= 58 }}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{ 4x = 58  - 10}}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{ 4x = 48}}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{ x =  \dfrac{48}{4} }}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad{ \underline{ \boxed { \pmb{\mathfrak {x = 12}} }}} }\:  \:  \bigstar

⠀

Therefore,

  • The width of the rectangle is 12 inches .

⠀

Now, We are to find the length of the rectangle:

{\longrightarrow \qquad{ { \frak{\pmb{Length = x + 5 }}}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad{ { \frak{\pmb{Length = 12 + 5 }}}}}

⠀

{\longrightarrow \qquad{ { \frak{\pmb{Length = 17}}}}}

⠀

Therefore,

  • The length of the rectangle is 17 inches .

Answer:

Length: 17 in, Width: 12 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l=length and w=width

l=w+5

2(w+5)+2w=58

4w=48

w=12, l=17

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (1, 1) and (7, -5)?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

y = -1x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,1)(7,-5)

y2-y1/x2-x1 = slope

-5-1/7-1 = -6/6= -1

y-y1 = slope(x-x1) // equation formula

y-1=-1(x-1)

y = -1x + 1 +1

y = -1x+2
