Ludmilka [50]3 years ago

Answer:

Length = 25 inches and width = 15 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the length of the rectangle is L inches and the width of the rectangle is W inches.

Now, the area of the rectangle is A = LW = 375 sq. inches ........... (1)

Now, given that the length to width ratio of the rectangle is 5 : 3.

Let L = 5x and W = 3x, then from equation (1) we get,

(5x)(3x) = 375

⇒ 15x² = 375

⇒ x² = 25

⇒ x = 5 {Neglecting the negative root, as length can not be negative}

Now, Length = L = 5x = 25 inches and Width = W = 3x = 15 inches. (Answer)

Suppose f is a continuous function on [-2, 2) such that
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

2. a and b only.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can check all of the given conditions to see which is true and which false.

a. f(c)=0 for some c in (-2,2).

According to the intermediate value theorem this must be true, since the extreme values of the function are f(-2)=1 and f(2)=-1, so according to the theorem, there must be one x-value for which f(x)=0 (middle value between the extreme values) if the function is continuous.

b. the graph of f(-x)+x crosses the x-axis on (-2,2)

Let's test this condition, we will substitute x for the given values on the interval so we get:

f(-(-2))+(-2)

f(2)-2

-1-1=-3  lower limit

f(-2)+2

1+2=3 higher limit

according to these results, the graph must cross the x-axis at some point so the graph can move from f(x)=-3 to f(x)=3, so this must be true.

c. f(c)<1 for all c in (-2,2)

even though this might be true for some x-values of of the interval, there are some other points where this might not be the case. You can find one of those situations when finding f(-2)=1, which is a positive value of f(c), so this must be false.

The final answer is then 2. a and b only.
