Let the Length be L and the Width be W

The area is 8 cm²
LW = 8

The perimeter is 12
2(L + W) = 12
L + W = 6

Solve L and W:
LW = 8 --------------- (1)
L + W = 6------------ (2)

Equation (2):
L + W = 6
L = 6 - W -------------- Sub into (1)
(6 - W) W = 8
6W - W² = 8
W² - 6W + 8 =0 
(W -2 )(W - 4) = 0
W = 2 or 4

When W =2, L = 6 - 2 = 4
When W = 4, L = 6 - 4 = 2

Answer: The Width is 2 cm and the Length is 4 cm

Write a paragraph comparing the two classes' semester grades. Be sure to compare the extremes, the quartiles, the medians, and t
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Second class have higher marks and greater spread.

Step-by-step explanation:

First box plot  represents class first. From the first box plot, we get

\text{Minimum value }= 53,Q_1=62,Median=80,Q_3=86,\text{Maximum value }= 89

Range=Maximum-Minimum=89-53=36

IQR=Q_3-Q-1=86-62=24

Second box plot  represents class second. From the second box plot, we get

\text{Minimum value }= 56,Q_1=62,Median=74,Q_3=89,\text{Maximum value }= 96

Range=Maximum-Minimum=96-56=40

IQR=Q_3-Q-1=89-62=27

First class has greater minimum value, first quartile of both classes are same, second class has greater median, first class has greater third quartile and first class has greater maximum value. It means second class have higher marks but class first have less variation.

Second class has greater range and greater inter quartile range. It means data of second class has greater spread.

Therefore, second class have higher marks and greater spread.

Using the information in the customer order, determine the length and width of the garden. Enter the dimensions. ↓
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Length: 14 feet   Width: 1 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the only way to have a rectangle that has a perimeter of 30 feet, and an area of 14 feet.

For perimeter:

14 + 14 = 28

1 + 1 = 2

2 + 28 = 30

These dimensions have a perimeter of 30.

For area:

14 x 1 = 14

These dimesnions also have an area of 14.

So, 14 and 1 are the correct dimensions!

Which of the following is an exponential equation?<br><br> y = mx + b<br> y = a(b^x)
Darina [25.2K]
Y = a(b^x)

y=mx + b is the equation of a line. It is a linear function because it has a constant rate of change.

y = a(b^x) is an exponential function because it has has an exponent and its rate of change is not constant
