let's translate this word problem into math

the length (L) is (=) 3 less than (-3) twice the width (2*W).

L=-3+2W


we want to find the perimiter

the perimiter, P is P=2(L+W)

if we subsitute -3+2W for L from our first equation into our perimiter equation, we get

P=2(-3+2W+W)

P=2(-3+3W)

P=-6+6W

P=6W-6

so P(W)=6W-6 is the function of the perimiter in terms of the width

l = 2w-3

P = 2(l+w)

substitute in for l

P = 2(2w-3 +w)

combine like terms

P = 2(3w-3)

P = 6w-6

P(w) = 6(w-1)

Scott started his bank account with $150 and is spending $7 per day on lunch. The x-axis would be labeled:
Inessa [10]

The x axis is labeled as Number of days.

<h3 /><h3>What is graph?</h3>

Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points.

let x be the  number of days and y be money.

So, the equation is

y = -7x + 150.

Hence, the x axis is labeled as Number of days.

1. Find two numbers with a common factor of 3 only.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

All numbers can be written as a product of the prime numbers that conform them.

A) Find two numbers with a common factor of 3 only.

for example:

2*3 = 6

7*3 = 21

Both numbers have the factor 3 in them, and because the other two numbers are primes, we can be sure that the 3 is the only common factor.

B) Write a pair of numbers with a common factor of 2, 3 and  6.

Here we can write:

2*3*2 = 12

3*2*5 = 30

Those two numbers have the common factors 6, 2 and 3.

C) Write a pair of numbers with common factors of 3, 6 and  9.​

3*2*3 = 18 (has the factors 2, 3, 3*2 = 6, 3*3 = 9)

-3*2*6 = -36

Both have the common factors 3, 6 and 9 (and they share more common factors like 2, this happens because 6 = 3*2, so if 6 is a common factor, 2 also must be)
