The length of a rectangle is 5 ft longer than its width.
if the perimeter of the rectangle is 30 ft, find its area.

50 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

If W is the width and L is the length, then:

L = W + 5

2L + 2W = 30

Solve the system of equations with substitution or elimination.  Using substitution:

2(W + 5) + 2W = 30

2W + 10 + 2W = 30

4W = 20

W = 5

L = 10

The area of the rectangle is:

A = LW

A = 50 ft²

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.

a.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1 distribute 2 to every term in the parentheses

step 2 add 10 on both sides of the equal sign
