Alex is making a rectangular garden and wants a fence around it. He wants the length of the garden to be 3 feet longer than the

width. 150 feet of fence is all he can afford. What is the greatest possible width he can have for his garden?

<span>Since it's rectangular, there is a length and width. Let the width be w, and the length is then w+3. The total length of the fence is the perimeter, so 150 = 2*w + 2*(w+3) = 4w+6. Solving for w, this becomes w=(150-6)/4 = 144/4 = 36 feet.</span>

Misty correctly determined the equation of the linear function represented by the table of values below to be y = negative 2 x +
olasank [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + c

m = (y2 - y1 )/ (x2 - x1)

using (1 , 7) & (2,5)

y2 = 5 y1 = 7 so y2 -y1 = -2

x2 = 2 x1 = 1 so x2 - x1 = 1

m - -2/1 = -2

y = -2x + c

when x =1 y = 7

so 7 = -2 + c

=> c =9

y = -2x + 9

if ordered pairs (2, 5) and (4, 1) used

m = (1-5)/(4-2)

=> m = -4/2

=> m = -2

y = -2x + c

for x =2 y =5

5 = -2*2 + c

=> c = 9

y = -2x + 9

she would have got same equation

The value of y varies jointly with x and z. If y = 7 when z = 196 and x = 2, find the value of y when x = 3 and z = 336. I will
eimsori [14]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

y∞ xz

y=kxz. Where k is constant

When z=196 and x= 2 then y= 7

7=(196)(2)k

7=392k

k=1/56

There fore y=(1/56)xz

When x=3 and z =336

y=(1/56)xz

y=(1/56)(336)(3)

y=18

What are the correct answers?
DochEvi [55]

Step-by-step Answer:

Situations with dot-products.

dot-product of vectors A<xa,ya>, B<xb,yb>

is defined as A.B=xa*xb + ya+yb

Note that the result is a scalar even though A and B are both vectors.

Q1 dot product is positive

Q2 dot product is negative

The dot product is also equal to the length of the projection of the unit vector of one onto the other, multiplied by the magnitudes.  This implies that the sign will be positive if the angle between the vectors is acute, and negative if the angle between them is obtuse.  That makes the first two proposed answers (A, B) correct.

Q3 dot product equals 0

Since the projection of any vector onto another perpendicular to it is zero, so the dot product of two perpendicular vectors always equal zero.  That makes the third proposed answer (E) correct.

Q4 dot product equals the product of the vectors' magnitudes.

The earlier statement

"The dot product is also equal to the length of the projection of the unit vector of one onto the other, multiplied by the magnitudes."

makes the fourth statement true if the unit vector projected onto the other remains a unit vector, i.e. when the two vectors are parallel (D)

Q5 dot product equals opposite of the product of the vectors.

To have the dot product's absolute value equal the product of the magnitudes, the vectors must be parallel.  If the dot product is positive, then the vectors are parallel and pointing in the same direction, as in Q4.

If the dot product is negative, meaning that is the opposite of the product of the magnitudes (themselves are always positive or zero), then the vectors are parallel, but in the opposing directions.

There is no correct answer for this case, which is definitely NOT "not possible".  The closest one is (D) vectors are parallel, but answer is incomplete.

Q6 dot product is greater than the product of the vectors' magnitudes.

I do not see a possible case for this to happen.

The cost for a pack of 18 pencils is $3.24. Find the unit price in dollars per pencil. If necessary, round your answer to the ne
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$0.18 per pencil.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Dollars per unit" means that you take the dollar amount and divide it by the amount of pencils, so you get 3.24/18, or .18.
