The answer is 3 and you get that by using the formula for the area of rectangle, p=2L+2W
44=2(4+5w) + 2w
44=8+10w + 2w
44=8+12w
44-8=8+12w-8
36=12w
36/12=12w/12
3=w
If you plug 3 back into the original formula then you see that it is equal to the perimeter of 44
P=2(4+5w) + 2w
P=2(4+5•3) + 2(3)
P=2(19) +6
P=38+6
P=44
This is the answer and the steps for doing it
<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
<u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
- The equation in slope intercept form .
<u>Answer</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
From the given graph , we can see that the line passes through y axis at (0,5) . So the y intercept is 5 . And the slope of the line is 5/2 = 2.5 . So ,
y intercept = 5 .
slope = 5/2 .
Now here we can use the slope intercept form as ,
y = mx + c
y = 5/2x + 5
<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> required</u><u> answer</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>y </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>5</u><u>/</u><u>2</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>5</u><u>.</u>
