Mathematics

Katen [24]3 years ago

Answer:

<u>The width is 1.67 or 1 2/3 feet approximately</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the dog pen = 14 1/5  = 14.2 square feet

Length of the pen = 8 1/2 = 8.5 feet

Width of the pen = x

Let's recall that the formula of the area of a rectangle is:

Area = Length * Width

Replacing with the values we know:

14 1/5 = 8 1/2 * Width

14.2 = 8.5 * Width

Width = 14.2/8.5

Width = 1.67 feet (rounding to the next hundredth)

1.67 ≅ 1 2/3

<u>The width is 1.67 or 1 2/3 feet approximately</u>

If g (x) = 1/x then [g (x+h) - g (x)] /h
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

\dfrac{-1}{x(x+h)}, h\ne 0

Step-by-step explanation:

If g(x) = \dfrac{1}{x}, then g(x+h) = \dfrac{1}{x+h}. It follows that

  \begin{aligned} \\\frac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h} &= \frac{1}{h} \cdot [g(x+h) - g(x)] \\&= \frac{1}{h} \left( \frac{1}{x+h} - \frac{1}{x} \right)\end{aligned}

Technically we are done, but some more simplification can be made. We can get a common denominator between 1/(x+h) and 1/x.

  \begin{aligned} \\\frac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h} &= \frac{1}{h} \left( \frac{1}{x+h} - \frac{1}{x} \right)\\&=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{x}{x(x+h)} - \frac{x+h}{x(x+h)} \right) \\ &=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{x-(x+h)}{x(x+h)}\right) \\ &=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{x-x-h}{x(x+h)}\right) \\ &=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{-h}{x(x+h)}\right) \end{aligned}

Now we can cancel the h in the numerator and denominator under the assumption that h is not 0.

  = \dfrac{-1}{x(x+h)}, h\ne 0

Step-by-step explanation: A line, ray, or line segment (referred to as segment) that is perpendicular to a given segment at its midpoint is called a perpendicular bisector. ... In the diagram above, RS is the perpendicular bisector of PQ, since RS is perpendicular to PQ and PS≅QS. Additionally, since PS≅QS, point S is the midpoint of PQ.
