We are given that the area of a rectangle is 42 square meters. The formula for the area of a rectangle is:

A=wl

Where "w" is the width and "l" is the length. We are also told that the width is 5 meters longer than one-third of the length, this can be written mathematically as:

w=\frac{1}{3}l+5

Replacing in the formula for the area:

A=(\frac{1}{3}l+5)l

Now we use the distributive property:

A=\frac{1}{3}l^2+5l

Now we replace the value of the area:

42=\frac{1}{3}l^2+5l

Now we subtract 42 to both sides:

\frac{1}{3}l^2+5l-42=0

Now we can multiply both sides by 3:

l^2+15l-126=0

Now we factor this equation, we need two numbers which sum is 15 and their product is 126, we get:

(l+21)(l-6)=0

Now we set each factor to zero:

\begin{gathered} l+21=0 \\ l=-21 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} l-6=0 \\ l=6 \end{gathered}

We take the positive value and therefore, the length of the rectangle is 6 meters.

To determine the width we use the relationship given by the problem:

w=\frac{1}{3}l+5

Replacing l = 6:

\begin{gathered} w=\frac{1}{3}(6)+5 \\ w=2+5 \\ w=7 \end{gathered}

The width is 7 meters.

(b)The graph of y = g(x) is shown. Draw the graph of g(2x). Will award 100 Brainly points
ivanzaharov [21]

Using the stated transformation, the graph of g(2x) is given at the end of the answer.

<h3>Horizontal stretch and compression</h3>

An horizontal stretch or an horizontal compression happens when a constant is multiplied at the domain of the function, as follows:

g(x) = f(ax).

The definition of stretch or compression depends on the value of the constant a, as follows:

  • If a > 1, it is a compression by a factor of 1/a.
  • If a < 1, it is a stretch by a factor of 1/a.

In this problem, the rule is:

f(x) = g(2x).

Meaning that f(x) is an horizontal compression by a factor of 1/2 of g(x), and then the vertices are given as follows:

  • (0,0).
  • (1,-4).
  • (2,-2).

That is, in each vertex, the x-coordinate was divided by 2, and thus the graph with these vertices is given at the end of the answer.

Which equation is correct using "is not equal to'' (≠)?
romanna [79]

65/5=13-3=10       27-17=10

72/6=12-1=11         54-43=11

88/8=11-2=9         27-18=9

90/3=30-8=22    34-10=24

So, that makes "90 ÷ 3 − 8 _____ 34 − 10" not equal.

Hope this helps! Stay Safe!

A = a+b+c / 3
IgorLugansk [536]
The equation given in the question is 

<span>A = a+b+c / 3
3A = a + b + c
3A - a - c = b

From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your desired help.</span>

A line passes through the point (-6, -8) and has a slope of 3/2
garri49 [273]

Answer:

y=3/2(x) -1, or y = 1.5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation in slope-intercept form, you have to determine the y-intercept for the line. Since you have the slope and at least one ordered pair, you can find this by substituting the points and slope into this formula:

y=mx+b.

For this particular line, you would write:

-8 = 3/2(-6)+b

-8 = -18/2 + b

-8 = -9 + b

add 9 to both sides to isolate the b

-1 = b.

Now that you have the answer for b (-1), you can write the equation as:

y=3/2(x) -1

PLEASE HELP ASAP THE DETAILS ARE BELOW.What is the value of x?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

x = 30°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dashes on the three lines indicate that the three lines are of equal lengths. The smaller triangle made out of the three lines (the one with two vertices on the circumference of the circle and one at the center of the circle) is an isosceles triangle. All three of the triangle's interior angles are 60° since it is isosceles.

The line (the one with arrows on its ends) touches the circle at only one point. That line is a tangent to the circle. That line is perpendicular to the segment that connects the center of the circle to the point of tangency. The angle between the two will be 90°.

The largest triangle includes three angles:

  • The angle with the center of the circle as its vertice: 60°;
  • The right angle due to the tangent to the circle: 90°;
  • The angle x°.

What is the value of x?

The three interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°. As a result,

60° + 90° + x° = 180°

x = 180 - 90 - 60 = 30.
