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

What is the average rate of change of f over the interval -7 < or equal to x Give an exact number
Annette [7]

Answer:

\frac{4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change can be found by using the following formula

\frac{f(x_{2}) - f(x_{1}) }{x_{2} - x_{1}}

Since the interval goes from -7 to 2, we should find the y-values that correspond to x=-7 and x=2.

By inspection of the graph, we can clearly see that when x is -7, y is -7 as well and when x is 2, y is 5.

Now that we know this, we can simply plug these values into the formula!

\frac{f(2) - f(-7) }{2 - (-7)} = \frac{5 - (-7)}{2 - (-7)} = \frac{5 +7}{2+7} = \frac{12}{9} = \frac{4}{3}

Good luck!

Determine the value of K that would make this expression a perfect square
Mumz [18]

Answer: k=9/4

Step-by-step explanation: We can do this by finding a number that adds up to 3 when multiplied by 2. The best way to do this is to use ((b^2)/4) which can usually find you the number for a perfect square based on b, which we have. So, 3^2 / 4 =9/4, meaning k=9/4. We can check:

>x^2 +3x +9/4

> (x+3/2)(x+3/2)

Perfect square.

line k has a slope of -5. line j is perpendicular to line k and passes though the point (5,9) create the equation for line j
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

y = 1/5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you should know is that the slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal. So, the slope of line j is 1/5. This is your current equation: y=1/5x + b. Plug in your coordinate to the equation, it should look like this: 9=1/5(5)+ b. 1/5 times 5 equals 1, so this is what it should look like: 9=1 + b. Subtract 1 from both sides to get 8 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in 8 to b. This is your final equation: y = 1/5x + 8. Hope this helped!
