Answer:
17/20
Step-by-step explanation:
0.85 = 85/100 = 17/20
The number 0.85 can be written using the fraction 85/100 which is equal to 17/20 when reduced to lowest terms.
The slope of the given line is negative as it moves downward from left to right. When the input value increases the output value decreases. Therefore it is a decreasing function.
Answer: Decreasing function
Answer:
Length: 23.38
Width: 3.34
Step-by-step explanation:
First I drew out a diagram so that I could visibly see the problem. [ a rectangle with 7x on one side and x on the other.
So to find the area you multiply length time width and 7x times x is 7x^2. The actual area is given: 78, so you set that equal to 7x^2.
Then you want to divide by 7 to get 11.14. Then you want to take the square root of 11.14 to get 3.338 which rounds to 3.34 {try not to round until the very end]. This gives you the width of the rectangle, so to find the length you would have to multiply x by 7 to get 23.38. When you multiply the length and width (3.34 x 23.38) you get 78.08 which can round to 78.
7x^2 = 78
x^2 = 78/7
x^2= 11.142...
x = sqrt(1.142...)
x = 3.338 --> 3.34 --> width
3.34 x 7 --> 23.38 --> length
3.34 x 23.38 --> 70.8
42. Because you divide into 6 and 7. 6 is divided into 3 and 2. So, 2 times 3 times 7.
