Answer:

Following equations represents a linear function:

y = 6x

y = 4x - √2

x – 4y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a linear function is of the form

where m is the rate of change or slope and b is the y-intercept.

Please note that y = mx+b represents a straight line because the degree of a linear function is always 1.

Now, let us check whether the given functions represent the linear functions or not.

Checking y = 6x

y = 6x

The dimensions are:

$3(2x+1)$ by $(7x+5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is given as

$A=42x^2+51x+15$

The factored form of this quadratic trinomial gives the dimensions of the rectangle.

We factor 3 first to obtain;

$A=3(14x^2+17x+5)$

We split the middle term to get;

$A=3(14x^2+10x+7x+5)$

We factor within the parenthesis to get;

$A=3(2x(7x+5)+1(7x+5))$

We factor further to get;

$A=3(2x+1)(7x+5)$

The dimensions are:

$3(2x+1)$ by $(7x+5)$

Then the perimeter will be

$2(6x+3+7x+5)=26x+16\:\:\:\boxed{\sqrt{} }$

An electrician needs 18.25 feet of wire for each outlet she installs. How man can she install with a 50 ft spool of wire?

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so if we know how much wire is needed for one outlet, we must figure out how many 18.25s fit into 50 ft of wire.

18.25*2=36.5

18.25*3=54.75 which is over 50 so it cannot possibly be more than 2.
