Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rectangle is 14 inches long and 4 inches wide, and the similar rectangle is 2 inches wide we can set up a proportion. We have\frac{14}{4} = \frac{x}{2}. Now we can cross multiply. We get 28 = 4x, and x = 7.

Which of the following best describes the end behavior of y=x^2 -bx +c as x approaches either positive or negative infinity?
Tcecarenko [31]
As x approaches either positive or negative infinity, y will approach positive infinity. 
This is because x^2 will grow large much quicker than b*x, so it has more importance. So when considering the limit, we can imagine that the equation looks like this:
y = x^2 
This equation will go to infinity for x approaching both negative and positive infinity.

What is the value of (-3/4)^-4
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

256/81

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the formula:

a^{-b}=1/a^{b}

Using the above formula to solve the question, we perform following steps:

(-3/4)^{-4}=1/(-3/4)^{4}

                    =4^{4}/(-3)^{4}

                    =(4*4*4*4)/(-3*-3*-3*-3)

                     =256/81 which is the required answer.
