We need to figure out how much string would be left, after taking away the first two pieces.
We know that the first piece is 20 inches long, so we can say that there is 52-20 inches left, or 32 inches.

The second piece is between 12 and 18 inches, meaning that there would be between 32-12 and 32-18 inches left for the third piece, or 20 and 14 inches. This means that the third piece would be at least 14 inches long, but no more than 20, since we don’t have more string than that (20+12+20=52, and 20+14+18=52)

So we can say that x is greater or equal to 14, but less than or equal to 20, or:

14<=x<=20 (“<=“ is written like a normal “<“ sign with a line _ right under it)

Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(27). f−1(27) = 1 f−1(27) = 3 f−1(27) = 9 f−1(27) = 81
Mariulka [41]
Fun fact
if f(a)=b then f⁻¹(b)=a
so
if f⁻¹(b)=a then f(a)=b
 
so we find f(x)=27 and the solve for x

f(x)=3x=27
3x=27
divide both sides by 3
x=9

so if f(9)=27 then f⁻¹(27)=9
problem solved

answer is 9

The length of a rectangle is four more than three times the width. If the perimeter of this rectangle is at least 70 square cent
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the triangle.

Let W represent the width of the triangle.

The length of a rectangle is four more than three times the width. This means that

L = 3W + 4

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

If the perimeter of this rectangle is at least 70 square centimeters, an inequality that can be solved to find the width of the rectangle is

2(L + W) ≥ 70

L + W ≥ 70/2

L + W ≥ 35

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

31.25

Step-by-step explanation:

25 is 80% of the original. Divide 25 by 8 to get 10%. This is 3.125. Multiply this by 10 to get 100%, and therefore the full amount.
