This is a bit of algebra.. you do not know either side so the width you will label x and the length you will label x +8. we know that if you add all 4 sides, you will have 256 feet. x + x + (x+8) + (x+8)=256  4x+16=256, Subtract 16 from both sides and you have 4x=240. divide by 4 on both sides and you get. x=60.. That makes the width = 60ft and the length = 68ft

Find the area of each shape. Show your reasoning.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Those areas are: A 1 = 12,  A 2 = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of shape 1  : it consists of 1 square + 4 right triangles

Area of the square: A = a², area of the triangle: A = 1/2 · a · h

A 1 = 2² + 4 · 1/2 · 2 · 2 = 4 + 8 = 12

The area of shape 2 :  it consists of 2  isosceles triangles

A 2 = 1/2 · 2 · 4 + 1/2 · 6 · 5 = 4 + 15 = 19

Use the definition of continuity and the properties of limits to show that the function
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Applied the definition and the limit.

They had the same result, so the function is continuous.

Step-by-step explanation:

At function f(x) is continuous at x = a if:

\lim_{x \to a} f(x) = f(a)

In this question:

f(x) = x^{2} + 5(x-2)^{7}

At x = 3.

\lim_{x \to 3} x^{2} + 5(x-2)^{7} = 3^{2} + 5(3-2)^{7} = 14

f(3) = 3^{2} + 5(3-2)^{7} = 14

Since \lim_{x \to 3} f(x) = f(3), f(x) is continuous at x = 3.
