Answer:

the length and width . Round to the nearest tenth are 8.8 inches and 3.8 inches respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area A of a rectangle is the product of the length L and width W. This may be expressed mathematically as

A = L * W

As such, given that the length is 5 inches more than the width,

L = W + 5

33 = W(W + 5)

W² + 5W  - 33 = 0

Using the formula method which states that

s = -b±√(b²-4ac)/2a

W = -5 ± √5² - 4(1)(-33)/2

= -5 ± 12.53/2

= 7.53/2 (since length cannot be negative)

= 3.755 inches

L = 3.755 + 5

= 8.755 inches

The division of that leads to 0.1715 that the next person will have high blood pressure. That number is roughly (very roughly) 1 person in 6. So if 6 people come in 1 will have high blood presure.

Does this table represent a function? Why or why not?<br><br> Answers above
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

No, because a x-value repeats.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function has x-values that correspond to exactly one y-value. In the given table, <u>the number '5' appears twice as an x-value</u>. This means that the relation is not a function, "because one x-value corresponds to two different y-values."
