The width would be 1 inch.

Given: L = length = 5W; P = perimeter = 2(L+W) = 12 inches
Required: W = width; 
Formula: P=2(L+W) 
Solution:
              12 in = 2 (L + W)
              6 in = L + W
              6 in = 5W + W
              6 in = 6W
              1 in = W
Cross check:
              P = 2(L + W)
              12 in = 2(5 in + 1 in)
              12 in = 2(6 in)
              12 in = 12 in

Which inequality is true?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

C. 5\pi > 15

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given series of inequalities, the inequality sign determines the final outcome.

A. 4\pi - 2 < 10

4\pi < 12

\pi < 3

Since \pi < 3, then the inequality is false

B. \pi + 9 < 12

\pi < 3

Since \pi < 3, then the inequality is false

c. 5\pi > 15

\pi > 3

Since \pi > 3, then the inequality is true

D. 6 > 2\pi

3 > \pi

Since \pi < 3, then the inequality is false

Thus, the only inequality that is true is option C.

Given f(x) = x^2+4, does there exist an x-intercept between [-2, 3]. Why or why not. Be sure to include in your discussion the I
Anna35 [415]
The x-intercepts are the values of x for which f(x) = 0.
x^2 + 4 = 0
x^2 = -4
x= ±√(-4), which are not real numbers. f(x) does not have an x-intercept.

The circumference of a circle is 62.8 inches.Using pi as 3.14,what is the radius.PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK!!!!
mamaluj [8]
The circumference of a circle - C=2 \pi r

C=62.8 \\ \\&#10;62.8=2 \times 3.14 \times r \\&#10;62.8=6.28r \\ \frac{62.8}{6.28}=r \\ r=10

The radius is 10 in.

PLEASE HELP HYPERBOLAS What is the length of the transverse axis ?<br> (x-1)^2/25-(y+3)^2/9=1
Sav [38]

Given equation of hyperbola is

\frac{(x-1)^{2}}{25}-\frac{(y+3)^{2}}{9}=1

Given hyperbola is the horizontal hyperbola

The standard form of the horizontal hyperbola is

\frac{(x-h)^{2}}{a^{2}}-\frac{(y-k)^{2}}{b^{2}}=1

When we compare these two equations, we get

h = 1, a = 5 , k = -3 and b = 3

Length of the transverse axis = 2a

Plug in the value of 'a' as 5

So,Length of the transverse axis = 2(5) = 10
