Answer:

l=102 feet, w=68 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w=width and l=length

P=2l + 2w

And we know that w=2/3l

So, using substitution...

340=2l + 2(2/3l)

340=2l + 4/3l

340=6/3l + 4/3l

340=10/3l (now multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of fraction)

1020=10l

So l=102

Now plug in to get w

2(102)+2w=340

204+2w=340

2w=136

w=68

Now check:

2(102)+2(68)=

204+136=

340 It works!

Does (lnk)/(k^3), where as k starts at one and continues on to infinity, converge? ...?
max2010maxim [7]
Yes. The numerator does not increase as fast as the denominator increases, causing the function's value to decrease with every subsequent increase in the value of k. This causes the function to converge at a point.

Complete the equation of the graphed linear function in point-slope form.
vazorg [7]
The point-slope form:
y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
m - slope
x₁, y₁ - the coordinates of a point

It passes through the points (1,-2) and (2,2).
(1,-2) \\
x_1=1 \\ y_1=-2 \\ \\
(2,2) \\
x_2=2 \\ y_2=2 \\ \\
m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{2-(-2)}{2-1}=\frac{2+2}{1}=4

\boxed{y-(-2)=4(x-1)}
