Answer:

Perimeter at the big rectangle is 156 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see how to calculate it.

1. First of all you know that perimeter in the blue one is 20cm, so imagine this:

L (long side); S (short side)

2L + 2S =20

and we consider that L = 4S

So, solving the equation:

2.4S + 2S =20

10S=20

S=20/10

S=2

L=8

2. Side at the gold square is 8, the same at the long side in the blue rectangle. So, if you see on the right side in the big one, we got 2 + 8 + 8 + (?). Take a look to the green. Green square is the gold + a short piece and you can understand the short piece as 2 short sides from the blue. If we give numbers we have 8 + 2 + 2, 12.

Now, 2+8+8+12 = 30cm

3. Let's go to the long side in the big one.

We have long side from blue (8) and as you see, side at the orange square must be side at the yellow + short at the blue, so 8+2 =10. We have four oranges square so 10+10+10+10=40, and +8 =48

4. Now that we have the two sides in the big one, let's find the perimeter with the rectangle formula:

2L + 2S =P

2.48 + 2.30 = 156 cm.

Carlos takes classes at both Westside Community College and Pinewood Community College. At Westside, class fees are $ 98 per cre

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

x + y = 13

98x + 115y = z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the time spent taking class in Westside community college

Let y represent the time spent taking class in Pinewood community college

Let z represent the combined total amount paid for the class fees.

The total combined time for the two school is given as:

x + y = 13.

For the combined total amount; we multiply the price for each school with the time spent on the school and sum them together.

Westside: $98 * x = 98x$

Pinewood: $115 * y = 115y$

The combined total amount represented as z is given as:

z = 98x + 115y

How are the graphs of the reciprocal functions related to their corresponding original functions? What happens to the graphs of

sdas [7]

Answer:

We have in general that when a function has a high value, its reciprocal has a high value and vice-versa. That is the correlation between the function. When the function goes close to zero, it all depends on the sign. If the graph approaches 0 from positive values (for example sinx for small positive x), then we get that the reciprocal function is approaching infinity, namely high values of y. If this happens with negative values, we get that the y-values of the function approach minus infinity, namely they have very low y values. 1/sinx has such a point around x=0; for positive x it has very high values and for negative x it has very low values. It is breaking down at x=0 and it is not continuous.

Now, regarding how to teach it. The visual way is easy; one has to just find a simulation that makes the emphasis as the x value changes and shows us also what happens if we have a coefficient 7sinx and 1/(7sinx). If they have a more verbal approach to learning, it would make sense to focus on the inverse relationship between a function and its reciprocal... and also put emphasis on the importance of the sign of the function when the function is near 0. Logical mathematical approach: try to make calculations for large values of x and small values of x, introduce the concept of a limit of a function (Where its values tend to) or a function being continuous (smooth).
