The length of a rectangle are represented by consecutive even integers. If the perimeter is 60, find the dimensions

Answer:

Length = 24 and width = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

2L + 2W = 60 where L = length and W = width.

The length must be in the 20's to make a perimeter of 60, as there's no number in the 10's or 30's that has 2 consecutive even integers and 40 something is impossible.

The only length which fits the given conditions is 24.

Then the width would be (60 -  2(24)) / 2 =  (60 - 48) / 2

= 6.

That's the answer.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!! I CANNOT RETAKE THIS!!
alex41 [277]

the correct answer should be (b) 6 is extraneous.

If you look at the second row of the solution you see (x-6) as a factor in one of the denominators. That's a problem: if 6 were a solution this denominator would become 0. But denominators being 0 is bad (undefined), so while 6 comes out of the algebraic manipulation as a solution, it is invalid, or extraneous.

-3 is a fine solution.

Solve the equation using the quadratic formula.<br> y2-8y + 17 = 0<br> The solution set is
Slav-nsk [51]

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula is:

x=(-b±  √b^2-4ac)/2a

a= 1

b= -8

c= 17

x= (-(-8)±√64-4(1)(17))/2

x= (8±√-4)/2

now

x1= (8+√-4)/2

x2=(8-√-4)/2

Lines m and p are perpendicular. If the slope of line m is -3, what is the slope of line p?​
nika2105 [10]

Answer:      The slope of p is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:    

If the lines are perpendicular, this means they are opposite.

Thus, O is opposite P and since O = -3, P = 1/3
