Answer:

Here

Step-by-step explanation:

length = x

width = 2x - 3

 

Perimeter = 2length + 2 width

2x + 2(2x - 3) = 42

2x + 4x - 6 =42

6x - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides

6x = 48

Divide both sides by 6

x = 8

 

Length = 8 inches

Width = 2(8) - 3 = 16-3 = 13 inches

1. Which of the following is equivalent to the inequality - 8 > 8x + 16 ?
Alex

Answer:

x <  -3 is the solution for the given inequality - 8 > 8x + 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given inequality is  - 8 > 8x + 16

Now, we know if equal (positives) are added, subtracted multiplied or divided on both sides of in equality, the signs remain unchanged.

⇒  - 8 > 8x + 16 is equivalent  to   - 8   + 8  > 8x + 16  + 8

or,  0 >  8x  + 24

⇔ -8x  > 8x + 24 - 8x

⇔ -8 x >  24

or, \frac{-8x}{-8}   <   \frac{24}{-8} (REVERSE SIGN as dividing by a a negative number)

or, x < -3

or, x <  -3 is the solution for the given inequality.

1. You have that the Standard form for the equation of a circle when its center is at the origin, is:

 x²+y²=r²

 2. You must calculate the radius. Then:

 r=√(x²+y²)

 x=24
 y=32

 3. When you substitute the values of "x" and "y" into the equation r=√(x²+y²), you obtain:

 r=√(x²+y²)
 r=√(24²+32²)
 r=√(576+1024)
 r=√1600
 r=40 feet

 4. Therefore, the diameter (D) of the circle, is:

 D=2r
 D=2(40 feet)
 D=80 feet

Use trigonometric identities to solve each equation within the given domain.
DedPeter [7]

Recall that

cos²(<em>x</em>) + sin²(<em>x</em>) = 1

Then in the equation

1 - cos(<em>x</em>) = 2 - 2 sin²(<em>x</em>)

we can rewrite as

1 - cos(<em>x</em>) = 2 (1 - sin²(<em>x</em>))

1 - cos(<em>x</em>) = 2 cos²(<em>x</em>)

2 cos²(<em>x</em>) + cos(<em>x</em>) - 1 = 0

Factorize the left side as

(2 cos(<em>x</em>) - 1) (cos(<em>x</em>) + 1) = 0

so that

2 cos(<em>x</em>) - 1 = 0   <u>or</u>   cos(<em>x</em>) + 1 = 0

cos(<em>x</em>) = 1/2   <u>or</u>   cos(<em>x</em>) = -1

On the interval (-<em>π</em>, <em>π</em>) (note that this interval is open, so we don't allow <em>x</em> = <em>π</em>), we have

• cos(<em>x</em>) = 1/2 for <em>x</em> = <em>π</em>/3 and <em>x</em> = -<em>π</em>/3

• cos(<em>x</em>) = -1 for <em>x</em> = <em>π</em>
