Answer:

63 feet long and 10.5 feet wide

Step-by-step explanation:

147 is the maximum amount of fencing, which means that this is dealing with perimeter.

So we set up our equation:

6x + 6x + x + x ≤ 147

(x being the width, and 6x being the length, which is 6 times the width)

this simplifies to:

14x ≤ 147

simplify:

x ≤ 10.5

So the width of the fencing is 10.5 feet long, meaning that the length is 63 feet long.

Check answers:

6(10.5) + 6(10.5) + 10.5 + 10.5 = 147

63 + 63 + 21 = 147

126 + 21 = 147

147 = 147

It works, so that is the solution.

Hope this helped :)

Answer:

length = 63 ft; width = 10.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x.

The length is 6 times the width, so the length is 6x.

The perimeter is the sum of 2 lengths and 2 widths.

6x + 6x + x + x

The perimeter equals 147 ft.

6x + 6x + x + x = 147

14x = 147

x = 10.5

The width is 10.5 ft.

The length is 6x, so the length is 6 * 10.5 ft = 63 ft

On a coordinate plane, 2 exponential fuctions are shown. Function f (x) decreases from quadrant 2 into quadrant 1 and approaches
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

g(x)=6(3)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given  that

f(x)=6(\frac{1}{3})^x

Function f decreases from quadrant  2 to quadrant 1 and approaches  y=0

It cut the y- axis at (0,6) and passing through the point (1,2).

Function g(x) approaches y=0 in quadrant 2 and increases into quadrant 1.

It passing through the point (-1,2) and cut the y-axis at point (0,6).

Reflection across y- axis:

Rule of transformation is given by

(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,y)

Using the rule then we get

g(x)=6(\frac{1}{3})^{-x}=6(3)^x

By using

x^{-a}=\frac{1}{x^a}

Substitute x=-1

g(-1)=6\times (\frac{1}{3})=2

Substitute x=0

g(0)=6

Therefore,g(x)=6(3)^x is true.
