Answer:

Inequality : 4x+8 < 120

x<28

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Perimeter of a rectangle (P)= 2 length +2 width

Where:

Width = x

Length = x+4

Replacing with the values given

P = 2 (x+4) + 2x

P = 2x+8+2x

P=4x+8

Since the perimeter of the rectangle must be less than 120:

4x+8 < 120

Solving for x

4x<120-8

4x<112

x<112/4

x<28

How to rewrite decimals to fractions before adding

torisob [31]

Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal/1Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. (For example, if there are two numbers after the decimal point, then use 100, if there are three then use 1000, etc.)Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction . ( Did That Help ? )

Answer:

$f''(x)=f''(-x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

A function satisfying the equation $f(x)=f(-x)$ is said to be an even function. This denomination comes from the fact that the same relation is satisfied for functions of the form $x^{n}$ with $n$ even. Observe that if $f$ is twice differentiable we can derivate using the chaing rule as follows:
