Bronson builds a rectangular deck for his friend. the width of the deck is 29 feet. the perimeter of the deck must be at least 1
olga_2 [115]
<span>Answer: a) Greater than or equal to 38 feet b)Since there is no restriction on the perimeter there exists many possible values for the length of the deck. Explanation: Given that the width of the deck is 29 ft. and the perimeter of the deck is at least 134 ft. 134 = 2(length + width) 134 = (2 x length) + (2 x 29) 134 = (2 x length) + 58 2 x length = 134 - 58 2 x length = 76 length = 76 / 2 length = 38 ft Thus, the inequality will be: a)Length ≥ 38 ft b)since there is no restriction on the perimeter there exists many possible values for length of deck.</span>

A function is given. Determine the average rate of change of the function between the given values of the variable: f(x)= 4x^2;
nevsk [136]
\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies &#10;\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;average\ rate\\&#10;of\ change&#10;\end{array}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf f(x)= 4x^2  \qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x_1=3\\&#10;x_2=3+h&#10;\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(3+h)-f(3)}{(3+h)~-~(3)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{[4(3+h)^2]~~-~~[4(3)^2]}{\underline{3}+h-\underline{3}}\implies \cfrac{4(3^2+6h+h^2)~~-~~4(9)}{h}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{4(9+6h+h^2)~~-~~36}{h}\implies \cfrac{\underline{36}+24h+4h^2~~\underline{-~~36}}{h}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{24h+4h^2}{h}\implies \cfrac{\underline{h}(24+4h)}{\underline{h}}\implies 24+4h
