Answer:

Area of the new rectangle  = 148.8 cm square

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the dimensions of the rectangle then the

Perimeter of the Original rectangle= 2(L+B)

                                                   = 2 ( 3x+2x) = 2(5x)= 10xcm

If the length is increased by eight the new length would be 3x+ 8

and width would be 2x+x= 3x after 50 % increase

Perimeter of the new rectangle= 2(L+B)

                                                     = 2 ( 3x+8 +3x)

                                                       = 2 (6x+8)

                                                       = 12x + 16

Ratio of the new perimeter to the original perimeter is

             New perimeter :   Original perimeter

                8                      : 5

           12x+ 16                   : 10x cm

80x= 60x + 16

20x= 16

x= 16/20= 4/5

Putting the value of length and breadth in place of x

Area of the new rectangle = L*B =  3 * (4/5) +8 *3(4/5)=

                                                                 = 12+ 40/5 * 12/5

                                                                   = 62/5* 12/5

                                                                     = 744/5

                                                                   = 148.8 cm square

Part A: A graph passes through the points (0,2), (1,3), and (2,4). Does this graph represent a linear function or a non-linear f
ad-work [718]

Answer:

  A) linear

  B) y = x is linear; y = 1/x is non-linear

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The points lie on the same straight line, so the function is linear.

__

B) Any function that has x to a power other than 1 will be non-linear.

  linear function: y = x

  nonlinear function: y = x^-1 = 1/x

What is the domain of the function f(x) = (-5/6)(3/5)superscript x
Georgia [21]

Answer:

-\infty < x < \infty

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = (-\frac{5}{6}) \cdot (\frac{3}{5})^x

Required

The domain

There are no undefined points such as denominator of x or square roots.

Hence, the domain is:

-\infty < x < \infty

A student takes an exam containing 16 true or false questions. If the student guesses, what is the probability that he will get
almond37 [142]

Answer:

0.001831055

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, n = 16, p = 0.5, (1 - p) = 0.5 and x = 14

As per binomial distribution formula P(X = x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

We need to calculate P(X = 14)

P(x =14) = 16C14 * 0.5^14 *(1-0.5)^2

               = 120 * 0.5^14 *(1-0.5)^2

= 0.001831055
