The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of length and width, so the sum of length and width is half the perimeter, 10 3/4 ft.

The width will be the difference between this and the length, hence 5 1/2 ft.

The area is the product of length and width.
  A = length×width
  A = (5.25 ft)×(5.5 ft) = 28.875 ft²

The area of the sandbox is 28 7/8 ft².

I need help finding the slope G and J
svetlana [45]

Answer:

-\frac{5}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

G(-6 , 2) = (x1 , y1)

J(-4 , -3) = (x2 , y2)

slope = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

=-3-2/-4-(-6)

=-5/-4+6

=-5/2

Sara wants to find the input value that produces the same output for the functions represented by the tables.
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

2 is the value that provides the same result with f(x) and g(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by saying:

f(x) = g(x)

and then solving for x.

So let's do it:

f(x) = g(x)\\-0.5x + 2 = 2x - 3\\2x + 0.5x  = 2 + 3\\2.5x = 5\\x = 2

This tells us that when x = 2, the two functions will have identical values.  Let's try them out to confirm it!

f(x) = -0.5x + 2

f(2) = -0.5 * 2 + 2

f(2) = -1 + 2

f(2) = 1

g(x) = 2x - 3

g(2) = 2 * 2 - 3

g(2) = 4 - 3

g(2) = 1

So we can see that 2 is the value that produces the same result in both charts.
