<h2>Answer:</h2>

The expression which represents the perimeter P of the rectangle as a function of L is:

          Perimeter=2(L+\sqrt{100-L^2})

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The length and width of a rectangle are denoted by L and W respectively.

Also the diagonal of a rectangle is: 10 inches.

We know that the diagonal of a rectangle in terms of L and W are given by:

10=\sqrt{L^2+W^2}

( Since, the diagonal of a rectangle act as a hypotenuse of the right angled triangle and we use the Pythagorean Theorem )

Hence, we have:

10^2=L^2+W^2\\\\i.e.\\\\W^2=100-L^2\\\\W=\pm \sqrt{100-L^2}

But we know that width can't be negative. It has to be greater than 0.

Hence, we have:

W=\sqrt{100-L^2}

Now, we know that the Perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

Perimeter=2(L+W)

Here we have:

Perimeter=2(L+\sqrt{100-L^2})

The graph below represents which system of inequalities? graph of two infinite lines that intersect at a point. One line is soli
stiks02 [169]
The first line through points (-3, 0) and (-4, -1) is the orange line.

The second line, through (1, 1) and (2, -1) is the purple line.

Since they are both shaded below, the intersection of the shaded regions, is the region colored in blue.

Both lines are included, since they are solid lines.



The equation of the first line can be found as follows:

the slope is \frac{0-(-1)}{-3-(-4)}=\frac{1}{1}=1, thus, the equation is:
y-0=1(x-(-4))\\\\y=x+4


The equation of the second line can be found as follows:

the slope is \frac{1-(-1)}{1-2}= \frac{2}{-1}=-2, 

thus the equation of the second line is :


y-1=-2(x-1)\\\\y-1=-2x+2\\\\y=-2x+3


We have to decide on the direction of the inequality sign, so we pick a point, for example (0, 4) which is not in the colored regions of the lines, 

so we write the inequalities so that they do not hold for (0, 4)


line 1:

y≥x+4

4≥0+4=4 is true, so we change the sign and write : y≤x+4


similarly, line 2:

y≤-2x+3

4≤-2*0+3=3, which is not true, so we have the correct direction.


Note that since the lines were solid, we include the equality case:


Answer: 

the shaded region is the solution to the system of inequalities:

i) y≤x+4
ii) y≤-2x+3

Explain how multiplying playing with 6 is like multiplying with 3
mote1985 [20]
6 is only the double of 3
3×2=6

Any number that's multiplied by 6 will be the double of any number multiplied by 3, or vice versa, any number multiplied by 3 will be half of any number multiplied by 6. This is because 6 is a multiple of 3.

Take for example:
850×6=5100 ⇔ 850×(3×2)=5100
