Given the perimeter of a rectangle and either the length or width, find the unknown measurement using the appropriate formula. The perimeter is 94ft and the length is 27ft

The measurement of the width is 20 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The perimeter is 94 ft and the length is 27 ft.

Now, to find the unknown measurement.

Perimeter = 94 ft.

Length = 27 ft.

Let the width of the rectangle be

So, to get the width we put formula of perimeter:

Subtracting both sides by 54 we get:

Dividing both sides by 2 we get:

Therefore, the measurement of the width is 20 ft.

step-by-step explanation:

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
