Answer:

Therefore the Dimensions are

Length =18 inches and Width = 2 inches

OR

Length =2 inches and Width = 18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Width of rectangle be 'W' inches.

The length of a rectangle  be 'L' inches.

Area of rectangle given is 36 square inches.

Perimeter of Rectangle is 40 inches.

To Find:

Length = L = ?

Width = W = ?

Solution:

Perimeter of Rectangle is given as

\textrm{Perimeter of Rectangle}=2\times (Length +Width)

Substituting we get

40=2(L+W)\\\\L+W=20\\\therefore L=20-W

We have area of rectangle given as

\textrm{Area of Rectangle}=Length\times Width)

Substituting the given values we get

36=(20-W)\times W\\W^{2}-20W+36=0

Which is a Quadratic Equation, So by Splitting the middle term we get

W^{2}-18W-2W+36=0\\W(W-18)-2(W-18)=0\\(W-2)(W-18)=0\\\therefore W=2\ inches\ or\ W =18\ inches

Therefore the Length will be

L=20-W=20-2=18\ inches\\OR\\L=20-18=2\ inches

Therefore the Dimensions are

Length =18 inches and Width = 2 inches

OR

Length =2 inches and Width = 18 inches

Sam colors each tile in a 4 by 4 grid white or black. A coloring is called rotationally
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

  65,280

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the 4×4 grid ...

  \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\d&c\end{array}\right]

where each of a, b, c, d is a 2×2 array of tiles. Let's use the notation a' to represent the 2×2 array "a" rotated right 1/4 turn. For 90° rotational symmetry, we must have b=a', c=b'=a'', d=c'=b''=a'''. That is, once "a" is determined, the rest of the grid is determined. Since "a" consists of 4 tiles, each of which can be black or white, there are 2^4 = 16 patterns that have 90° rotational symmetry.

The same will be true of 270° rotational symmetry, for the same reason.

__

For 180° rotational symmetry, we must have c=a'' and d=b''. Then the combination of "a" and "b" together fully determines the grid. Together, "a" and "b" consist of 8 tiles, so there are 2^8 = 256 ways to pattern the grid so it will have 180° rotational symmetry. (Of those, 16 have 90° symmetry, and 16 have 270° symmetry. The sets are overlapping.)

__

The 16 tiles of the grid can be colored 2^16 = 65,536 different ways. As we have seen, 256 of those colorings result in 180° rotational symmetry. Then the number of colorings that have no rotational symmetry is ...

  65,536 -256 = 65,280 . . . . colorings not rotationally symmetric

Answer:

(3,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a graphing calculator called desmos that can help you answer questions like this, but, if you don't want to use that, you can just make a graph and imagine the transformation. Remember, when you reflect something over an axis, it is like you are folding the graph along the axis and your new point will be on the other side.
