A farmer wants to use 200 feet of fencing for a chicken pen. He wants the width of the pen to be 20 feet. What is the length of

the pen?

The length should be 80 feet.

This is because the width is 20, since there are two sides for the width in a pen, we have to add 20+20. This would equal 40. Then we need to subtract 40 from 200. 200-40 would be 160. Then since there are two sides for the length, we need to split that in half. 160÷2 would be 80. To double check, you can do 80+80 and that would still be 160. So the length of one side would be 80. But of course, this whole thing would only be right if the pen has four sides(but since i have seen many chicken pens, there were all rectangular). I hope this helped! :)

working together it takes two computers 10 minutes to send out a company's email. If it takes the slower computer 30 minutes to
allochka39001 [22]

Answer: it will take the faster computer 15 minutes to do the job on its own.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the number of minutes it will take the faster computer to do the job on its own. It means that the rate at which it does the job per minute is 1/t

If it takes the slower computer 30 minutes to do the job on its own. It means that the rate at which it does the job on its own per minute is 1/30

By working together, they would work simultaneously and their individual rates are additive. Working together it takes two computers 10 minutes to send out a company's email. It means that the rate at which both computers work together per minute is 1/10 Therefore,

1/t + 1/30 = 1/10

Cross multiplying by 30x, it becomes

3x = x + 30

3x - x = 30

2x = 30

x = 30/2

x = 15 minutes

Select "Yes" or "No" to indicate whether the ordered pair is on the graph of the function f(x)=−9^x+1 .
Vinil7 [7]
I'm assuming your function is f(x) = -9^(x+1)
So we just have to plug in and see if the function is true.

1) -9^(0+1) = -9^1 = -9
YES

2) -9^(1+1) = -9^2 = -81
NO

3) -9^(-1+1) = -9^0 = -1
YES

What is the value of x?
Talja [164]
Use the Pythagorean theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem uses the following formula:

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

Plug in the known values into the equation:

a = 6, c = 10

6^{2} + b^{2} = 10^{2}

36 + b^{2} = 100

Subtract both sides by 36.

b^{2} = 64

Square root both sides to get b by itself.

\sqrt{64} = 8

b = 8

The value of x is 8.
