Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is adding all 4 sides

We know one side is 9

The other three sides are in the ratio

1:2:4

Multiply by x to give the side lengths

x, 2x, 4x

The Perimeter is

9+ x+2x+4x=65

9+7x=65

Subtract 9 from each side

9-9 +7x =65-9

7x = 56

7x/7 = 56/7

x=8

The shortest side is 8

we just need add x next to ratio and sum them all to get perimeter

9 + x + 2x + 4x = 65

7x = 56

x = 8

well since 8(x)<9<16(2x)<(32(4x), then

the shortest side is 8

Eggplant has a yield of 81%. If you purchase 12lb of eggplant, how many pounds will you be able to use?(round to the nearest hun

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

9.72 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Yield = the amount or quantity produced or returned.

Given:

Yield of eggplant = 81%
Amount of eggplant purchased = 12 lb

To determine how many pounds of eggplant you will be able to use, calculate 81% of the amount of eggplant purchased.

$\begin{aligned}\sf 81\% \: of \: 12 \: lb & = \sf \dfrac{81}{100} \cdot 12\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{81 \cdot 12}{100}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{972}{100}\\\\& = \sf 9.72\:lb\end{aligned}$

Therefore, you will be able to use 9.72 lb (nearest hundredth).

Answer:

B. 11.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the law of cosines:

$c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2-2ab*cosC}$

Substitute the values:

$c = \sqrt{9^2+12^2-2*9*12*cos64}=11.42$

**PLEASE HELP ASAP** Betsy is analyzing a quadratic function f(x) and a linear function g(x). Will they intersect?

Nina [5.8K]

We analyze the chart and observe that the linear function is $y=x$ , since this relation holds for all values in the table. Drawing this line over the quadratic function shows that they intersect twice, at both the positive and negative x-coordinates.

This is by far the easiest way to solve this problem, but if you're interested in learning how to do it algebraically, read on! To prove this more rigorously, we can find that the equation of the parabola is $y=\frac13 x^2 - 2.$ Substituting in $y=x$ , we find that the intersection points occur where $\frac13 x^2 - 2 = x$ , or $\frac13 x^2 - x - 2 = 0,$ or $x^2 - 3x - 6 = 0.$

This equation doesn't factor nicely, so we use the quadratic formula to learn that $x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{3^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot (-6)}}{2} = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{33}}{2}.$ Hence, the x-coordinates of the intersection points are $\frac{3 + \sqrt{33}}{2}$ , which is positive, and $\frac{3 - \sqrt{33}}{2}$ , which is negative. This proves that there are intersection points on both ends of the axis.
