translate each statement into mathematical language

 

length is nine inches less than twice width.    L = 2W - 9

perimeter is 84 inches                                   2L +2W = 84

 

Substitute the expression for L (2W-9) for L in the second equation resulting in the follwing

 

2(2W-9) + 2W = 84

 

4W - 18 + 2W = 84

 

(4W+2W) = 84+18  

6W =  102

W = 102/6 = 51/3

 

L = 2(51/3) - 9

= L= 17-9

L=6

What is the equation of the midline for the function f(x) ?
Inessa05 [86]

let's recall the graph of sin(x), is simply a sinusoidal line waving about, but its midline is at the x-axis, namely y = 0.

this equation is simply a transformation of it, the 1/2 changes the amplitude by half, midline stays the same though, the +3, moves the whole thing upwards, a vertical shift of 3, meaning the midline went from 0 to 3, y = 3.

The mean age of swimers for all of these teams is 10. what does a large mad tell you.eade help​
aev [14]
Answer: Larger the MAD tells us that the ages of swimmer are far from the mean age. Thus means is not a relevant indicator for the data.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the mean absolute deviation (MAD) helps to know whether the mean of a data is a worthy indicator for the data values .
The larger the MAD tells us the values are spread out far from the mean .
Also, larger the MAD makes the mean less worthy as an indicator of the data elements within the data set.
