Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us suppose that length of Triangle is equal to x.

that is

Length = x

Than

width = x - 10

perimeter of Rectangle is

2(length) + 2(width) = 36

2x + 2(x-10) = 36

2x +2x - 20 = 36

4x -20 = 36

4x = 36 +20

4x = 56

x = 56/4

x = 14

so Length of Rectangle is 14 inches

and

width = x - 10

width = 14 - 10

width = 4

Explain how to use multiplication to find
Sindrei [870]

A fraction x/y is a ratio between two numbers x and y.

The ratio is preserved if both x and y are scaled up or down by the same number n.

This means you can obtain any fraction equivalent to x/y by multiplying both x and y by n, i.e. (n*x)/(n*y).

Then we have 1/4 = (2*1)/(2*4) = 2/8, for example.

Which table represents a nonlinear function?
Setler [38]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Nonlinear would be any function where both values are not changing by some fixed amount. In B, f(x) increases by 1 for every time x increases by 1 so that's linear. For C, f(x) increases by 2 for every time x increases by 1, so that's linear. For D, f(x) increases by 3 for every time x increases by 1 so that's also linear. For A, f(x) does not always change by the same amount, so it's nonlinear.
