Let x = width
<span>length is 8 cm more than three times it’s width so length = 3x + 8
</span>
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + W)
so
128 = 2(x + 3x + 8) solve for x (width)
128 = 2(4x + 8)
64 = 4x + 8
4x = 56
x = 14
width = 14 cm
length = 3(14) + 8 = 50 cm

Answer:
width = 14 cm
length = 50 cm

If f(x)=x^2-81 and g(x)=(x-9)^-1(x 9), find g(x) * f(x)

ycow [4]

Hello,

if x≠9 then

$f(x)=x^2-81\\\\
g(x)= \frac{x+9}{x-9} \\\\

g(x)*f(x)= \dfrac{(x-9)(x+9)(x+9)}{x-9} =(x+9)^2=x^2+18x+81$

The length of a rectangle is one inch less than three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 54 inches, find the

max2010maxim [7]

Answer: 20;

w - width

3w - 1 - length

54 in - perimeter

w + w + (3w - 1) + (3w - 1) = 8w - 2 - perimeter

The equation:

8w - 2 = 54 add 2 to both sides

8w = 56 divide both sides by 8

w = 7

3w - 1 = 3(7) - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20

Answer: The length = 20 in.
