Let l and l-6 be the length and width, respectively, of the rectangle. Then:
l(l-6)=40
l²-6l-40=0
(l-10)(l+4)=0
l=10,-4
The rectangle is 10" by 4". ☺☺☺☺

Nichior compared the slope of the function graphed to the slope of the linear function that has an x-intercept of 2/3 and a y-in
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The slope of f(x) is 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the linear function that has an x-intercept of 2/3 and a y-intercept of -1

so

we have the points

(2/3,0) and (0,-1)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values

m=\frac{-1-0}{0-2/3}

m=\frac{-1}{-2/3}

m=\frac{3}{2}=1.5

step 2

Find the slope of the function graphed

take the points

(0,-1) and (3,6)  approximately

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{6+1}{3-0}

m=\frac{7}{3}=2.33

step 3

we know that

f(x) represents the function with the smaller slope

The smaller slope is 1.5

therefore

The slope of f(x) is 1.5

For the function y=-1+6 cos(2pi/7(x-5)) what is the minimum value?
Ad libitum [116K]
Usually one will differentiate the function to find the minimum/maximum point, but in this case differentiating yields:
\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)^{2}}\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)}}}
which contains multiple solution if one tries to solve for x when the differentiated form is 0.

I would, though, venture a guess that the minimum value would be (approaching) 5, since the function would be undefined in the vicinity.

If, however, the function is
-1+\cos{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}
Then differentiating and equating to 0 yields:
\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}=0
which gives:
x=5 or 8.5

We reject x=5 as it is when it ix the maximum and thus,
x=8.5\pm7n, for n=0,\pm 1,\pm 2, ...

A 16-digit binary pattern converts to a ____ digit hexadecimal value.
Doss [256]

Solution -

In order to convert a binary number to hexadecimal ,we need to chunk the binary number into groups of 4 digits, adding 0 if necessary.

As the given number number is a 16 digit binary number, so when chunk in 4 digit groups, it will form 4 groups. Each group will represent a single digit in hexadecimal code.  

So, a 16-digit binary pattern converts to a 4 digit hexadecimal value.
