Answer:

The picture frame is 0.50 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the image below.

The inner rectangle represents the image of Jennifer's boyfriend.

And the outer rectangle represents the outside of the picture frame.

The width of the picture frame can be computed by subtracting the measures of the respective sides of the two rectangles.

Compute the width using the breadths of the two rectangles as follows:

Width = (Outer Breadth - Inner Breadth) ÷ 2

          = (5 inches - 4 inches) ÷ 2

          = 1 inch ÷ 2

          = 0.50 inches.

Compute the width using the length of the two rectangles as follows:

Width = (Outer Length - Inner Length) ÷ 2

          = (7 inches - 6 inches) ÷ 2

          = 1 inch ÷ 2

          = 0.50 inches.

Thus, the picture frame is 0.50 inches wide.

Which of the following is the solution set of -21xl <-8
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

x\:>\:4 or x\:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given absolute value inequality is -2|x|\:

Divide both sides of the inequality by -2 and reverse the inequality sign:

|x|\:>\:4

By the definition of the absolute value function;

Either x\:>\:4 or -x\:>\:4

Divide through the rightmost inequality by -1 and reverse the sign.

This implies that:

x\:>\:4 or x\:

Need help pls 8th math
finlep [7]

I am not completely sure but it's most likely the last option because congruent means equal and the two trapezoids can't be equal because of the different side lengths.

Consider the line <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20y%3D%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20x%2B1%20" id="TexFormula1" title=" y=\frac{2}
miv72 [106K]

we are given equation of line

y=\frac{2}{3} x+1

Equation of perpendicular line:

Firstly , we will find slope of line

y=\frac{2}{3} x+1

we can compare it with

y=mx+b

we get

m=\frac{2}{3}

we know that

slope of perpendicular line will be -1/m

so, slope is

\frac{-3}{2}

It passes through point (-4,5)

so, we can use point slope form of line

y-5=-\frac{3}{2}(x+4)

we get

y=-\frac{3}{2}x-1..........Answer

Equation of parallel line:

Firstly , we will find slope of line

y=\frac{2}{3} x+1

we can compare it with

y=mx+b

we get

m=\frac{2}{3}

we know that

slope of parallel line always equal

so, slope is

\frac{2}{3}

It passes through point (-4,-5)

so, we can use point slope form of line

y+5=\frac{2}{3}(x+4)

we get

y=\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{7}{3}............Answer
