Hey there!

Your answer is no.

I'll give an example to prove this wrong for you.

We have one rectangle with the dimensions of 2 x 6 units and another rectangle with dimentions of 4 x 4 units.

The perimiter of the first one is 16 because the four sides added up is 16: 2 + 2 + 6 + 6 = 16

The perimiter of the second is also 16. 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16

So, they both have the same perimeter, but they are not congruent because their sides are different lengths.

Hope this helps!

Not nessisarly if individual the length and the width are the same then yes

If 2 times an integer x is increased by 7, the result is always greater than 16 but less than 29.

Degger [83]

Answer:

X=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Turning the question into a formulae

2X + 5 > 16; and 2X + 5 < 29

Let’s start by calculating the lower limit

2X + 5 = 16

X = (16–5)/2

X = 11/2 = 5.5

X > 5.5

The lowest value of X is infinitesimally close to 5.5, but greater than 5.5.

Write the equation for a 3rd degree polynomial function that has roots at x = 1–3i and x = 2. The y‑intercept is (0,10). Write a

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle P(x)=-\frac{1}{2}(x^2+2x+10)(x-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Factored Form Of Polynomials </u>

If we know the roots of a polynomial as

$\alpha _1,\alpha _2,\alpha _3$

the polynomial can be expressed in factored form as

$a(x-\alpha _1)(x-\alpha _2)(x-\alpha _3)$

We are given two of the three roots of the polynomial:

$\alpha _1=1-3i$

$\alpha _2=2$

The other root must be the conjugate of the complex root:

$\alpha _3=1+3i$

Recall the product of two complex conjugate numbers is

$(1-3i)(1+3i)=1^2-(3i)^2=1+9=10$

The required polynomial is

$P(x)=a\left[ x-(1-3i)\right ]\left[ x-(1+3i)\right ](x-2)$

$P(x)=a(x^2+2x+10)(x-2)$

This is the factored form of the polynomial where only real numbers appear

We need to find the value of a, such as

$P(0)=10$

$P(0)=a(0^2+2(0)+10)(0-2)=10$

$-20a=10$

Thus the value of a is

$\displaystyle a=-\frac{1}{2}$

The expression of the required polynomial is

$\boxed{P(x)=-\frac{1}{2}(x^2+2x+10)(x-2)}$
