Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The median would be the better representation of the data set; the median would be the middle value of the data set, not influenced by the numerical values of the several outliers.

ms Callahan is building a new dog pen for her dog. she has 24feet of fencing. the pen needs to be a rectangle. what is the lengt
NeX [460]
If Ms. Callahan has 24 feet of fencing, and she is building a pen, the PERIMETER of the pen must be 24 feet.  The perimeter is basically the distance around a figure.  The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to length plus width plus length plus width, AKA l+w+l+w, or P=2l+2w.  In a rectangle, two pairs of sides are of equal length--so the two lengths and the two widths must be equal.

So, the formula is P=2l+2w.  P, the perimeter, is 24, so 24=2l+2w.  Let's try some values for l and see what we get for w.  If the length is 1, l=1.  24=(2*1)+2w.  24=2+2w.  22=2w.  w=11.  So if length is 1 foot, width is 11 feet.

What if l=2?  24=(2*2)+2w.  24=4+2w.  2w=20.  w=10.  If l=2, w=10.  And l=3?  24=(2*3)+2w.  24=6+2w.  18=2w.  w=9.  If l=3, w=9.  Do you see a pattern?  Every time we add 1 to l, we subtract 1 from w.  So if l=4, w=8.  If l=5, w=7.  If l=6, w=6.  Here, we start getting similar answers: if l=7, w=5.  If l=8, w=4.  Since we already know these values work, it doesn't matter whether we call it length or width.  So, our answers are below.

Answer: Ms Callahan can make a pen with a length of 1 foot and a width of 11 feet, a length of 2 feet and a width of 10 feet, a length of 3 feet and a width of 9 feet, a length of 4 feet and a width of 8 feet, a length of 5 feet and a width of 7 feet, or a length of 6 feet and a width of 6 feet.

Answer:

No.

Step-by-Step Explanation:

When two lines are parallel, they might or might not be equal. It is not necessary that they should be equal.

See the triangle below in which two lines are parallel to each other.

Y=x^2-6x+3 help write the vertex form of the equation
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

y=(x-3)^2-6

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x^2-6x+3

This is written in the standard form of a quadratic function:

y=ax^2+bx+c

where:

  • ax² → quadratic term
  • bx → linear term
  • c → constant

You need to convert this to vertex form:

y=a(x-h)^2+k

where:

  • (h,k) → vertex

To find the vertex form, you need to find the vertex. For this, use the equation for axis of symmetry, since this line passes through the vertex:

x=-\frac{b}{2a}

Using your original equation, identify the a, b, and c terms:

a=1\\\\b=-6\\\\c=3

Insert the known values into the equation:

x=-\frac{(-6)}{2(1)}

Simplify. Two negatives make a positive:

x=\frac{6}{2} =3

X is equal to 3 (3,y). Insert the value of x into the standard form equation and solve for y:

y=3^2-6(3)+3

Simplify using PEMDAS:

y=9-18+3\\\\y=-9+3\\\\y=-6

The value of y is -6 (3,-6). Insert these values into the vertex form:

(3_{h},-6_{k})\\\\y=a(x-3)^2+(-6)

Insert the value of a and simplify:

y=(x-3)^2-6

:Done
