The length of a rectangle is 4 inches more than its width, and its perimeter is 34 inches. Find the length and width of the rectangle. If w= the width of the rectangle, then the length equals OW-4 OW-4 401​

L = 4 + w

A = 2P - 4

lw = 2(2l +2w) - 4

lw = 4(l + w) - 4

(w+4)w = 4 ( w+4+w) -4

(w +4)w = 4(2w + 4) - 4

w^2 + 4w = 8w + 16 - 4

w^2 + 4w = 8w + 12

w^2 - 4w - 12 = 0

( w - 6 )( w + 2 ) = 0

w - 6 = 0 > w = 6 > L=10 ---> P = 32 and A = 60

w + 2 = 0 ---> w = -2 <--- width cannot be negative; disqualified/rejected

Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
