The length of a rectangle is three times its width If the perimeter of the rectangle is 48?

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to 2*length + 2* width. In this case, we will say 2x + 2y = p = 48. Since the length is equal to 3 times the width, the equation now becomes p = 6*y + 2*y, or just p = 8y. Now since p =48, y must equal 6. And since the length is three times the width (y), the length is 18.


If you have a graph on which forearm length and height are on the Y and X axis which variable should go on which axis?

== == It depends actually. If you were given a value that is a height and want to find the forearm length from that then the forearm length would go on the Y axis (because it is dependant on the height) and the height on the X-axis. If you are given a value that is the forearm length and you want to know the height then you will put height on the Y-axis and the forearm length on the X-axis.


What is the area and perimeter of a rectangle?

The perimeter is the sum of its 4 sides and its area is length times width


What is the length of one side of this square 4x2 - 4xy plus y2?

4x2 - 4xy + y2 = (2x - y)2 so the length of the side of the square must be 2x-y.
