Answer:

lenght=57

width=33

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated using the formula

P=2(w+l) where P is the perimeter, w is the width and l is the length.

We know

P=180

lenght (l) = x (unknown value)

width (w)= x-24

Now we change these values in the formula

180=2((x-24)+x)

180=2(x-24+x)

180=2(2x-24)

180=4x-48

180+48=4x

228=4x

x=228/4

x=57

Therefore

P=180

w= x-24 =57-24 <em>=33</em>

<em>l=57</em>

To confirm:

P=2(w+l)=2(33+57)=2(90)=180

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

What quadratic function does the graph represent?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

f(x)=-\frac{1}{3}(x-2)^2+4,

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of the graph can be written in the vertex form as

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k, where V(h,k)=V(2,4) is the vertex of the quadratic function.

We substitute the value to obtain;

f(x)=a(x-2)^2+4,

The point (5,1) lies on the graph so we use it to determine the value of a.

1=a(5-2)^2+4,

1-4=a(3)^2,

-3=9a,

a=-\frac{1}{3}

The required equation is

f(x)=-\frac{1}{3}(x-2)^2+4,

Suppose the temperature outside is dropping 3 degrees each hour how much will the temperature drop in 8 hours
vovikov84 [41]
It would drop by 24 degrees

3 x 8 = 24

For each hour another long way is simple just do

3 x 4 = 12 now just double it
12 + 12 = 24
