Answer:

  40 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of width to length is 2/3, so the width of the floor is ...

  width = (2/3)(12 m) = 8 m

The perimeter is found from ...

  P = 2(L +W)

  P = 2(12 m +8 m) = 40 m

The perimeter of the floor is 40 m.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

As above, the perimeter is twice the sum of length and width. In terms of ratio units, that is p = 2(3 +2) = 10. The length is 3 ratio units, so the perimeter is 10/3 times the length. (10/3)(12 m) = 40 m.

Which function represents a vertical stretch of an exponential function?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

A. f(x)=3(\frac{1}{2})^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The options are:

A. f(x)=3(\frac{1}{2})^x\\\\B. f(x)=\frac{1}{2}(3)^x\\\\C. f(x)=(3)^{2x}\\\\ D. f(x)=3^{(\frac{1}{2}x)}

For this exercise it is important to remember that, by definition, the Exponential parent functions have the form shown below:

f(x) = a^x

Where "a" is the base.

There are several transformations for a function f(x), some of those transformations are shown below:

1. If  bf(x) and  b>1, then the function is stretched vertically by a factor of "b".

2. If   bf(x)  and 0, then the function is  compressed vertically by a factor of "b"

Therefore, based on the information given above, you can identify that the function that represents a vertical stretch of an Exponential function, is the one given in the Option A. This is:

f(x)=3(\frac{1}{2})^x

Where the factor is:

b=3

And 3>1
