Answer:

x=4.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

we know that

The perimeter of a hexagon is the sum of its six length sides

Let

x ----> the length of a shorter side

y ---> the length of a longer side

The perimeter of the hexagon is equal to

P=4x+2y

P=52\ in

so

52=4x+2y ---->equation A

Each longer side measure 1 in. less than 4 times the length of a shorter side

so

y=4x-1 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

52=4x+2(4x-1)

Solve for x

4x+8x=52+2\\12x=54\\x=4.5\ in

Identify holes in the graph of the function.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:     x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The hole in the graph (a discontinuity) exist where the function doesn't exist. Because anything divided by zero is undefined, then the function would not exit at 0, thus having a hole/discontinuity.

A soccer ball is kicked toward the goal. The height of the ball is modeled by the function h(t) = - 16t^2 + 48t where t equals t
andriy [413]

Answer:

x = 3/2

The axis of symmetry is located at the vertex,

which is the also the highest point in this problem...

the x component of the vertex can be calculated as -b/2a = -48/-32 = 24/16 = 6/4 = 3/2

x = 3/2

You are running a fuel economy study. One of the cars you find is blue. It can travel 41 1/2 miles on 1 1/4 gasoline. Another ca
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to study the fuel consumption of each car, i.e the amount of mile per gallon the cars will consume

Step one:

given data:

First car

distance covered= 41 1/2 = 41.5miles

amount of gallons= 1 1/4= 1.25gal

the miles per gallons= 41.5/1.25=33.2 miles per gallon

Second car

distance covered= 21 3/5= 21.6miles

amount of gallons=4/5=  0.8gal

the miles per gallons= 21.6/0.8=27 miles per gallon

1. Therefore the unit rate of

the first car = 33.2 miles per gallon

the second car=27 miles per gallon

2. the first car can travel a greater distance on 1 gallon of gasoline
