Length = 2 breadth +6
perimeter= 4(length+ breadth)
168=4(2breadth +6+breadth
42={3breadth+6)
14=breadth +2
breadth =12
length=30
hope u like the answer if yes mark !e brainlist

Answer: The dimensions are: "length = 58 ft. and width = 26 ft." ;

or; write as: " 58 ft. × 26 ft. " .

___________________________

Explanation:

To solve:

_______________________

<u>Note</u>:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2L + 2w ;

in which:

"P = perimeter;

"L = length ;

"w = width ;

________________________

The dimensions are the "Length" {"L"] by the width {"w"} ; or; " L × w " ;

Given:

L = 6 + 2w ;

___________________________

P = 2L + 2w ;

Plug in: "168" (given) for "P".

and: "(6 + 2w)" for "L" ;

to solve for: "w" {the "width"} ;

→ P = 2L + 2w ;

→ 168 = 2(6 + 2w) + 2w ;

Factor out a "2" in the "right hand side" of the equation:

→ 168 = 2 [(6 + 2w) + (w)]

Divide each side o the equation by "2" ;

→ 168 / 2 = { 2 [(6 + 2w) + (w)] } / 2 ;

to get:

→ 84 = [(6 + 2w) + (w)] ;

Note: Simplify the "right-hand side" of the equation:

→ [(6 + 2w) + (w)] = 6 + 2w + 1w = 6 + 3w ;

and rewrite the equation:

→ 84 = 6 + 3w ;

↔ 3w + 6 = 84 ;

Subtract "6" from each side of the equation:

→ 3w + 6 − 6 = 84 − 6 ;

to get:

→ 3w = 78 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "3" ;

to isolate "w" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "w" [the "width"] ;

→ 3w / 3 = 78 / 2 ;

to get:

→ w = 26.

Now:

Given: " L = 6 + 2w " ;

Solve for: "L" .

Plug in "26" for "w" in the equation; to solve for "L" :

→ " L = 6 + 2w ;

→ " L = 6 + 2(26) ;

→ " L = 6 + 52 ;

→ " L = 58 " .

So, we have: " L = 58 ft. " ; and "w = 26 ft."

So the dimensions are: "length = 58 ft. and width = 26 ft." ;

or; write as: " 58 ft. × 26 ft. " .

→ <u>Do not forget the units of "</u><u>feet</u><u>" (abbreviated "ft.") !!!</u>

_________________________

Let us check our answer:

Use the formula:

P = 2L + 2w ;

→ When "P = 168" ; (as given in the problem); does the equation hold true when "L = 58" and when "w = 26" ??

Let us check! ;

→ 168 =? 2(58) + 2(26) ??

→ 168 =? 116 + 52 ??

→ 168 =? 168 ??

→ 168 = 168 !! Yes!

Answer, please. I need help.
Ghella [55]

Answer:

-8x^12

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have an exponent outside of parenthesis, it is raising everything in the parenthesis to that exponent (in this case, the third). The first step to solve this is to multiply the exponents in the parenthesis by 3. This is called the power of a power rule.

-2 is being raised to the first power. 1x3 = 3, and x is being raised to the fourth power. 4x3 = 12, so you now have:

-2^3x^12

You can simplify -2^3: -2 x -2 x -2 = -8

This leaves you with -8x^12

You can check this by putting -8x^12 and (-2x^4)^3 into a graphing calculator. You know that you simplified correctly if they show the same graphs.

Jami is trying to model the movement of a tire. In order to properly model the movement, she is going to focus on the movement o
USPshnik [31]

From the given data it is clear that the amplitude of the wave will be 9 inches.

It is also clear that the speed of rotation, ω, will be: \omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{8}=\frac{\pi}{4}

Now, it is given that the nozzle is on the right side of the tire and that position is going to be treated as the equilibrium position, the tire is then rotated such that the nozzle goes up at the beginning of the rotation. This condition is possible only when we have a Sine (Sin) function.

Thus, our final answer can be arrived as:

Amplitude\times Sin(\omega t)

9\times sin(\frac{\pi}{4}t) =9sin(\frac{\pi}{4}t)

Thus, out of the given options, option B is the correct answer.

F(x) = -1/2x^2 + 3/2x - 2 I need to find the zeros​
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

{-1, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given f(x) = -1/2x^2 + 3/2x - 2

set f(x) = 0 and then multiply all the numeric terms by -2 to remove the fractions:

f(x) = -1/2x^2 + 3/2x - 2 = 0  =>  1x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0  

This factors into (x - 4)(x + 1) = 0, whose roots are {-1, 4}.  These are the zeros.
