Answer: A = 128 in^2

Explanation:
Assume:
X is the width
And 2x is the length

We know Perimeter = 48

P = 2(x + 2x) = 48
2x + 4x = 48
6x = 48
x = 8

Now we found the width which is 8
And the length is 2 times the width which is 8 x 2 = 16

Now that we have both length and width we can find the area

A = 16 x 8 = 128

Answer:

  • 128 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2w + 2l

l = 2w

48 = 2w + 2×2w

48 = 2w + 4w

48 = 6w

w = 48 : 6

w = 8 inches

l = 2w

l = 2×8inches

l = 16 inches

A = w×l

= 8in × 16in

= 128 inches²

A mother gives birth to a 9 pound baby. every 4 months, the baby gained 2 pounds. if x is the age of the baby in months, then y
chubhunter [2.5K]
For the equation of the line of the form y = mx + b, m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept which is the value of y when x is equal to zero. The slope is the rate of change of y per change in x. "y" would represent the dependent variable which is the weight of the baby while "x" represents the independent variable which is the number of months or the age of the baby in months. We calculate the slope as follows:

slope = (11 - 9) / ( 4 - 0) = 2/4 = 0.5
at x = 0, it is said that the weight of the baby is 9 lbs so the value of b would be 9.

The equation of the line would be y = 0.5x + 9

Pls help being timed
Anna71 [15]

The inequality is a > 12, which means a is greater than 12. This means that we are looking for numbers that are greater than 12 to place into the solution set. Options A and B are incorrect because 10 and 11 are both numbers less than 12, respectively. Option D is also incorrect because the inequality specifies that the numbers in the solution must be greater than 12, not equal to it, so 12 is not a solution.

This leaves option C as the correct answer, because all of the solutions in the set (13, 14, and 15) are greater than 12.

Therefore, your answer is C.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

=5/21L+ -5/84

Step-by-step explanation:

=-(5/7) (-(1L/3-3/4)+1/3/4)

=(-5/7)(-(1L/3-3/4))+(-5/7)(1/3/4)

=5/21L= -15/28+ -5/84

SSSSS [86.1K]

We have 1 green and 8 non-green.  

We get a probability of 8/9 of a non-green for the first marble and a probably of 7/8 for the second being non green, so

p = (8/9)*(7/8) = 7/9

Answer: 7/9
