New perimeter is 4040-2424= 1616
original, let x and y be length and width
2x + 2y = 4040
new
2x/2 +2y/3 = 1616
x +2y/3 = 1616
x = 1616 - 2y/3
sub this x value into first eq
2(1616-2y/3) + 2y = 4040
3232 - 4y/3 + 2 = 4040
put like terms together
-4y/3+2y=4040-3232
2y/3=808
multiply both sides by 3
2y = 2424
divide both sides by 2
y=1212

sub this y value into any eq. i chose eq 1
2x+2(1212)= 4040
2x = 4040 - 2(1212)
2x = 1616
x = 808

so the length is 808 and the width is 1212

theresa went bowling on tuesday night. she bowled scores of 150, 165, and 165. what was her mean average score?
aleksley [76]
So, to do this, all you need to do is add up all the values, and then, with that number, divide by how many values are given.

150+165+165= 480
480/3= 160

The equation gives the speed at impact, V metres per second, of an object dropped from a height of h metres. SHOW WORK From what
devlian [24]

Answer:

h = 17.65 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation gives the speed at impact :

v=\sqrt{2gh}

h is height form where the object is dropped

Put v = 18.6 m/s in the above equation.

h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\\h=\dfrac{(18.6)^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\h=17.65\ m

So, the object must be dropped from a height of 17.65 m.

I need help with this promblem it’s ALGEBRA 2!
AlekseyPX

Answer:

(f\circ h)(2)=2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Composite Function </u>

Given f(x) and h(x) real functions, the composite function named (f\circ h)(x) is defined as:

(f\circ h)(x)=f(h(x))

It can be found by substituting h into f.

We are given the functions:

f(x)=2x^2-9x+2

h(x)=x^2-4

It's required to find (f\circ h)(2)

As defined above:

(f\circ h)(x)=f(h(x))

Thus:

(f\circ h)(2)=f(h(2))

Find h(2):

h(2)=2^2-4=0

h(2)=0

Now:

(f\circ h)(2)=2(0)^2-9(0)+2

(f\circ h)(2)=2
