The function representing the height is y = 36 - \frac{3}{4} x.

<h3>What is function?</h3>

A formula, rule, or legislation that specifies how one variable (the independent variable) and another variable are related (the dependent variable). In mathematics, functions exist everywhere, and they are crucial for constructing physical links in the sciences.

<h3>What is fraction?</h3>

Any number of equal parts is represented by a fraction, which also represents a portion of a whole. A fraction, such as one-half, eight-fifths, or three-quarters, indicates how many components of a particular size there are when stated in ordinary English.

Given that,

Height of rails h is 36in.

The rate of decrement is 9 inches for every 12 horizontal inches,

We represent the rate (r) as a fraction.

r = -\frac{9}{12} (negative, because it decreases),

r = -\frac{3}{4},

So, the function is

Y = h + r × x

Where,

X is distance from top

So, y = 36 -\frac{3}{4}x

Find the value of X in the following rectangle if the area is 180 square inches
andrezito [222]
Hello!

You find the area of a rectangle by the equation A = lw

A is area
l is length
w is width

Put in the values you know

180 = 3x * 6

Now you solve it algebraically

Divide both sides by 6

30 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

10 = x

The answer is 10in

Hope this helps!

The measure of an angle is 60° less than nineteen times the measure of its supplement. what is the measure of the angle?
DerKrebs [107]
Two angles are supplementary when they <span>add up to 180 degrees.

x = angle
19x-60 = </span><span>supplement angle

x + 19x - 60 = 180
20x = 180 + 60
20x = 240
x = 240/20
x = 12</span>°  ← answer
