The length of a rectangle is three times as long as its width. The width of this rectangle is 6 inches smaller than its length.

Find the length and the width. (It would also be interesting to know its area and perimeter!)

Answer:

The length is 9in and the width is 3in

The perimeter is 24in and the area is 27in²

Step-by-step explanation:

To start we have to make 2 equations with the information that gave us the problem

l = length

w = width

w = l - 6in

l = 3w

we replace l in the first equation with (3w)

w = (3w) - 6in

w - 3w = -6in

-2w = -6in

w = -6in / (-2)

w = 3in

now we replace the value of w in the second equation

l = 3w

l = 3 (3in)

l = 9in

Now that we have the length and width we can calculate the perimeter and the area with the following formulas

p = perimeter

a = area

p = 2w + 2h

p = 2(3in) + 2(9in)

p = 6in + 18in

p = 24in

a = w * l

a = 3in * 9in

a = 27in²

What is the range of y = sin θ ?
Tamiku [17]
The range of a function is the set of all the possible function outputs. We know that sin theta varies between -1 and 1 if we draw a graph. According to the graph, the largest number that is an output of g is -1, and the smallest number is 1. Every number between them is also an output of g for some input. Therefore, the range of g is [-1,1].

Tyrel evaluated the expression 2 1/2−3/4. Which is one way he can check his work?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

1 3/4 = 7/4 = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The process to arrive to the solution is explained in the pictures below.

Tyler needed to convert the mixed fraction

2 1/2  = (4+1)/2 = 5/2

If we multiply by 2 numerator and denominator

5*2/2*2 = 10/4

We substract

10/4 - 3/4 = 7/4 = 1.75

three trigonometric functions for a given angle are shown below csc theta = 13/12, sec theta = -13/5, cot theta = -5/12 what are
goldenfox [79]
We have that
csc ∅=13/12
sec ∅=-13/5
cot ∅=-5/12

we know that
csc ∅=1/sin ∅
sin ∅=1/ csc ∅------> sin ∅=12/13

sec ∅=-13/5
sec ∅=1/cos ∅
cos ∅=1/sec ∅------> cos ∅=-5/13

sin ∅ is positive and cos ∅ is negative
so
∅ belong to the II quadrant

therefore
<span>the coordinates of point (x,y) on the terminal ray of angle theta are
</span>x=-5
y=12

the answer is
point (-5,12)

see the attached figure
