Answer:

The length is equal to 12 and the width is equal to 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the values here, we start by setting the width equal to x. Now knowing this, we know that the length is twice that long. Therefore, the length would be equal to 2x. Now we can use the perimeter formula to solve the equation.

2L + 2W = P

2(2x) + 2(x) = P

4x + 2x = 36

6x = 36

x = 6

Now with the given value for x, we can tell that the width is 6 and then we multiply it by 2 to get the length value (12).

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:   L= 12, W = 6

Discussion:

Let "L' be the length of the rectangle,"w" its width, and P its perimeter. We are told that

L = 2W            (*)

and

P = 36

Since the Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W we have

2L + 2W = 36

From  (*) above L = 2W  so substituting this into the last equation gives:

2L + L = 36

which gives 3L = 36 or L = 12. Since the Width is 1/2 the length, W = 12/2 = 6

Use the mapping shown above to show the value of the function f(x) at each point.
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The value of the function f(x) at each point is f(-1) = 5, f(0) = 3, f(1) = 5, f(2) = 11, f(3) = 21 ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the mapping shown to solve the question

∵ f(x) = y

∵ x is the domain

∵ y is the range

→ From the figure use x from the domain and y from the range, where

   each arrow pointed at the corresponding value y of x

∵ x = -1 and the corresponding value of y is 5

∴ f(-1) = 5  

∵ x = 0 and the corresponding value of y is 3

∴ f(0) = 3

∵ x = 1 and the corresponding value of y is 5

∴ f(1) = 5

∵ x = 2 and the corresponding value of y is 11

∴ f(2) = 11

∵ x = 3 and the corresponding value of y is 21

∴ f(3) = 21

The value of the function f(x) at each point is f(-1) = 5, f(0) = 3, f(1) = 5, f(2) = 11, f(3) = 21

Shortcuts?:)<br> Find dy/dx<br> y=-3x^7
Lostsunrise [7]
Knowing the power rule:
dx*n*x^(n-1) all you'd need to do is bring the 7 down and multiply it by -3, then subtract 1 from 7. Because dx is 1 you don't need to worry about it (you'll use chain rule for that)
So your final answer should be dy/dx= -21x^6
