Answer: the length of the base is 290ft

The width of the base is 175 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the building is rectangular in shape.

Let L represent the length of the base of the building.

Let W represent the width of the base of the building.

The length of the base measures 60 ft less than twice the width. This means that

L = 2W - 60 - - - - - - - - -1

The perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as 2(length + width).

The perimeter of this base is 930ft. It means that

2(L + W) = 930

L + W = 930/2 = 465- - - - - - 2

Substituting equation 1 into equation 2 , it becomes

2W - 60 + W = 465

3W = 465 + 60 = 525

W = 525/3 = 175

L = 465 - W = 465 - 175

L = 290

A graph that uses bars of various heights to represent the frequencies.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

A graph that uses bars of various heights to represent the frequencies is a <u>Histogram</u>

A histogram is an approximate representation of the distribution of numerical data. The term was first introduced by Karl Pearson. To construct a histogram, the first step is to "bin" (or "bucket") the range of values—that is, divide the entire range of values into a series of intervals—and then count how many values fall into each interval.

Therefore, a graph that uses bars of various heights to represent the frequencies is a <u>Histogram</u>

Factor 9(n − 4) − 4n(n − 4)
schepotkina [342]
Hey there :)

9( n - 4 ) - 4n ( n - 4 )
We can take ( n - 4 ) as common as both are getting multiplied by ( n - 4 )

We can join 9 - 4n together

Therefore, the final answer will be ( n - 4 )( 9 - 4n )

The answer is 48.66, as the hundreth place is the 5, but you must round it up to a 6 since the 7 is larger than 5

Which equation represents an exponential function with an initial value of 500
WITCHER [35]
Exponential function is characterized by an exponential increase or decrease of the value from one data point to the next by some constant. When you graph an exponential function, it would start by having a very steep slope. As time goes on, the slope decreases until it levels off. The general from of this equation is: y = A×b^x, where A is the initial data point at the start of an event, like an experiment. The term 'b' is the constant of exponential change. This is raised to the power of x, which represents the independent variable, usually time.

So, the hint for you to find is the term 500 right before the term with an exponent. For example, the function would be: y = 500(1.8)^x.
