Length of the rectangle is 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Perimeter of the rectangle = 26 in and width = 8 in. Find the length.

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width)

26 = 2(length + 8)

13 = length + 8

length = 13 - 8

Length = 5 in

Identify intervals on which the function is increasing, decreasing, or constant.

tigry1 [53]

G ( x ) = 2 - ( x - 7 )²
g ( x ) = 2 - ( x² - 14 x + 49 )
g ( x ) = 2 - x² + 14 x - 49
g ( x ) = - x² + 14 x - 47
The maximum of the function is at:
x= - b / 2 a
x = - 14 / ( - 2 ) = 7
Therefore the function is increasing form x ∈ ( - ∞, 7 ) and decreasing for x ∈ ( 7, +∞ ).
Answer:
C. increasing, x < 7; decreasing x > 7.

Which system of equations below has infinitely many solutions? y = –3x 4 and y = –3x – 4 y = –3x 4 and 3y = –9x 12 y = –3x 4 and

Flura [38]

the equations y = –3x + 4 and 3y = –9x + 12 have infinitely many solutions. option B is correct.

<h3>What is the linear system?</h3>

It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. A one-dimension figure that has no width. It is a combination of infinite points side by side.

Condition for the parallel lines.

L1, ax + bx + c = 0

L2, dx + ey + f = 0

If $\rm \dfrac{a}{d} = \dfrac{b}{e} = \dfrac{c}{f}$ then lines have infinitely many solutions.

<h3>Which system of equations below has infinitely many solutions?</h3>

y = –3x + 4 and 3y = –9x + 12

On comparing we have

a = -3 , b = 1, and c = 4

d = -9 , e = 3, and f = 12

Then their ratio will be

$\rm \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{-3}{-9} = \dfrac{4}{12}\\\\\rm \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{1}{3}$

Hence y = –3x + 4 and 3y = –9x + 12 have infinitely many solutions.

Thus the option B is correct.
