The perimeter of a triangular window is the sum of its side lengths

The side lengths of the window are 33 inches, and 54 inches

<h3>How to determine the side lengths?</h3>

The ratio is given as:

Ratio = 11: 18 : 18

Rewrite as:

Ratio = 11x: 18x : 18x

Express as sum

Sum = 11x + 18x + 18x

Sum = 47x

The perimeter is 141 inches.

So, we have:

47x = 141

Divide both sides by 47

x = 3

Recall that:

Ratio = 11x: 18x : 18x

So, we have:

Ratio = 11*3: 18*3 : 18* 3

Ratio = 33: 54 : 54

Hence, the side lengths of the window are 33 inches, and 54 inches

HELPP!!! BRAINLYESTTTTT!!!!!!<br><br><br> GRAPH THE FUNCTION:

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function f(x) = -3/4(x) +6.

We know that the slope intercept form of a line is y = mx + b

Here, the slope m = -3/4.

The y-coordinate of the y intercept is b = 6 so the y-intercept is at the point (0,6) [x is always 0 at the y-intercept]

If you have to points you can graph the line, we only have the point (0,6).

To find the second point we use the slope.

We add the bottom point of the slope to the x coordinate of the y-intercept and we add the top part of the slope to the y coordinate of the y-intercept, so our second point is (0 + 4, 6 +(-3)) = (4, 3).

You then plot the points we have: (0,6) and (4,3) and draw the line through them.

Transform the given quadratic function into vertex form f(x) = quadratic function into vertex form f(x) = quadratic function int

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

$f(x) = 3(x -\frac{2}{3})^2 -\frac{22}{3}$

The vertex is $(\frac{2}{3}, -\frac{22}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

For a general quadratic function the form is:

$ax ^ 2 + bx + c$

For the function

$f(x) = 3x ^ 2 -4x -6$

Take common factor 3.

$f(x) = 3(x ^ 2 -\frac{4}{3}x - 2)$

The values of the coefficients for the function within the parenthesis are the following: $a = 1$ , $b = -\frac{4}{3}$ , $c = -2$

Take the value of b and divide it by 2. Then, the result obtained squares it.

$\frac{b}{2}= -\frac{2}{3}$

$(\frac{b}{2})^2=\frac{4}{9}$

Add and subtract $\frac{4}{9}$

$f(x) = 3([x ^ 2 -\frac{4}{3}x +\frac{4}{9}]- 2-\frac{4}{9})$

Write the expression of the form

$f(x) = (x-\frac{b}{2})^2 +k$

$f(x) = 3(x -\frac{2}{3})^2 -\frac{22}{3}$

The vertex is $(\frac{2}{3}, -\frac{22}{3})$

what is the sum of a 7-term geometric series if the first term is negative 11 the last turn is -45056 and the common ratio is -4

patriot [66]

For a geometric sequence with common ratio $r$ , we have

$a_n=a_{n-1}r$

that is, the $n$ -th term in the sequence is the product of the previous term and the common ratio $r$ . So

$a_n=a_{n-1}r=a_{n-2}r^2=\cdots=a_1r^{n-1}$

Then the sum of the first 7 terms is

$S_7=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^7a_n=a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_7$
$\implies S_7=a_1+a_1r+\cdots+a_1r^6$

Notice that

$S_7r=a_1r+a_1r^2+\cdots+a_1r^7$

so we can subtract this modified sum from $S_7$ to get

$S_7-S_7r=S_7(1-r)=a_1-a_1r^7\implies S_7=a_1\dfrac{1-r^7}{1-r}$

We're told that $a_1=-11$ and $r=-4$ , so the sum of the first 7 terms is

$S_7=(-11)\dfrac{1-(-4)^7}{1-(-4)}=144,188$

What is 5.6 equalivent to

Sloan [31]

(this is for fractions!!!!!!!!!!!!) 28/5 or 5 3/5

i think u just make it into 5.6/1 multiply by 10 which gets 56/10 and wala
but it's not simplified. 56 and 10 is divisible by 2 so u get 28/5 which is actually 5 3/5 (which is 5.6!!)
