Answer:

Option B: 15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

p=2w+2l so 12 (2*6) +2x= 42

42-12=30

30/2=15

The answer is:

15 inches

Explanation:

P = perimeter = 42

L = length = ?

W = width = 6

P rectangle = 2L + 2 W

Substitute into formula:

42 = 2L + 2 * 6

42 = 2L + 12

42 - 12 = 2L

30 = 2L

L = 30/2 = 15

L = 15 inches

I hope this helps!!!

For the function f(x) = 2 - 3x, find f(-4). Options are in the picture.

Kitty [74]

You just have to plug in -4 into
$f(x) = 2 - 3x$
This implies that,
$f( - 4) = 2 - 3( - 4)$

$f( - 4) = 2 + 3(4)$
$f( - 4) = 2 + 12$
$f( - 4) = 14$

I need help with the photo below.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Here, 30/360 * 2πr = 10
1/12 * 2 * 3.14 * r = 10
r = 10*12 / 6.28
r = 19.11

Now, Area = 1/12 * 3.14 * (19.11)²
= 3.14/12 * 365.16
= 95.5 Ft²

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!
