Answer:

<h2>length = 14 cm</h2><h2>width = 3 cm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where

l is the length

w is the width

From the question

Perimeter = 34 cm

The statement

The length of a rectangle is 8 cm longer than twice the width is written as

l = 8 + 2w

Substitute this expression into the above formula and solve for the width

That's

34 = 2( 8 + 2w) + 2w

34 = 16 + 4w + 2w

6w = 18

Divide both sides by 6

w = 3

Substitute this value into l = 8 + 2w

That's

l = 8 + 2(3)

= 8 + 6

l = 14

The dimensions are

length = 14 cm

width = 3 cm

Hope this helps you

Given: f(x)=x^(2)-3 and g(x)=x+1 the composite function g*f is
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

<h2>x³ + x² - 3x - 3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming g*f means g times f,  so you want to multiply the two functions together.  

(x² - 3)(x + 1)                 Since the product is 2 binomials, use FOIL

                      =  x²(x) + x²(1) - 3(x) - 3(1)

which simplifies to

<h2>x³ + x² - 3x - 3</h2>
