Excuse my awful triangle drawing skills, haha..
So essentially you need to find the perimeter which is done by adding the lengths of the sides.. this gives you 22ft.
Then for part b you need to convert 22ft to yards which gives you 7.3 yards.
Since you can only buy a whole number of yards, you'll actually need 8 yards.
So if the boarder is $8.75 per yard, and you need 8 yards, how much would it cost?
Hope this was helpful.

Exponential functions

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

An exponential function is a Mathematical function in form f (x) = ax.

 $f(x) = ax$ 

Step-by-step explanation:

 where “x” is a variable and “a” is a constant which is called the base of the function and it should be greater than 0.

NoTe: The most commonly used exponential function base is the transcendental number e, which is approximately equal to 2.71828.

Find the equation of the line through point (3,2) and perpendicular to 3x + 5y = 15

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

y=5/3x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

first, let's put 3x+5y=15 into y=mx+b form

move 3x to the other side

5y=-3x+15

divide by 5

y=-3/5x+3

now, perendicular lines have slopes that are negative and reciprocal.

With our new equation we can automatically find the slope, which would be 5/3.

now, we need to find b

plug the points (3,2) into y=5/3x+b

2=5/3(3)+b

2=5+b

-3=b

so that means that our equation will now be

y=5/3x-3.

Hope this helps!

Solve the inequality 2(4x-3)>-3(3)+5x

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

$x > -1\\$

Step by step explanation:

$~~~~~2(4x-3) > -3(3)+5x\\\\\implies 8x-6 > -9+5x\\\\\implies 8x > -9+6+5x\\\\\implies 8x > -3+5x\\\\\implies 8x -5x > -3\\\\\implies 3x > -3\\\\\implies x > -\dfrac 33\\\\\implies x > -1$
