Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle = Length × Width

A rectangle’s width is one-fourth of its length.

W = 1/4 × L

W = L/4

Cross Multiply

L = 4W

A = 9 square units

Hence

9 = L × W

We substitute 4W for L

9 = 4W × W

9 = 4W²

We square root both side

√9 = √4W²

3 = 2W

W = 3/2

W = 1 1/2 unit or 1.5 units

Solving for L = Length

9 = L × W

9 = L × 1.5

L = 9/1.5

L = 6 units

Therefore, the Length of the rectangle = 6 units

Answer:

- 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here [ a, b ] = [ - 5, - 2 ]

f(b) = f(- 2) = (- 2)² - 4 = 4 - 4 = 0

f(a) = f(- 5) = (- 5)² - 4 = 25 - 4 = 21, thus

average rate of change = \frac{0-21}{-2-(-5)} = \frac{-21}{3} = - 7

 PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!!!! Alexia spent 3 minutes working on each of her math problems and 4 minutes on each of her science problem
Lunna [17]
The correct answer to this problem is the third statement which is "Alexia completed 20 math problems and 10 science problem". The following conditions are stated in the problem:
Alexia can answer 3 minutes on each math problem
Alexia can answer 4 minutes on each science problem
She worked more than 60 minutes
We have the inequality 3x + 4y > 60 where x represents the total number of math problem while y represents the total number of the science problem.
in our answer, we have x=20and y=10
3*20 + 4*10 > 60
60 + 40 > 60
100 > 60

Therefore, our answer is correct.
