Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Make equations, l = w+5 and 2l + 2w = 150

Substitute w+5 into 2l + 2w = 150

Simplify to get 4w + 10 = 150

Subtract 10 from both sides to get 4w = 140

Divide both sides by 4 and you get 35 as width

Answer:

The width of the field is 35 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

$\displaystyle P = 2(w+\ell)$

Where w is the width and l is the length of the rectangle.

We know that the perimeter is 150 meters. Thus:

$150=2(w+\ell)$

Divide both sides by two:

$75=w+\ell$

We are given that the length is five meters longer than the width. So:

$\ell = w+5$

Substitute:

$75=w+(w+5)$

Combine like terms:

$75=2w+5$

Subtract five from both sides:

$70=2w$

And divide both sides by two. Hence:

$w=35$

Thus, the width of the rectangular field is 35 meters.

Use two points to enter an equation for the function. Give your answer in the form a(b)^n. In the event that a = 1, give your an

levacccp [35]

Answer:

$m(n) = 24 (0.75)^n$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The two points are:

a) On the first swing she swings forward by 18 degrees: (1, 18)

b) On the second swing she only comes 13.5 degrees forward: (2,13.5)

2) The general equation using the form given is:

$m(n)=A(B)^n$

3) Substitute the two points:

$18=A(B)\\ \\ 13.5=A(B)^2$

4) Divide the second equation by the first one:

⇒ 13.5 / 18 = B

⇒ B = 0.75

5) Substitue B = 0.75 into the first equation:

18 = A (0.75) ⇒ A = 18 / 0.75 = 24

Hence, the equation is:

$m(n) = 24 (0.75)^n$

Samantha drew Triangle JKL with the coordinates (2,3), (4, 3) and (5,2). She reflected this image over the x-axis to create an i

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

J'(2,-3), K'(4, -3) and L'(5,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle has vertices at J(2,3), K(4, 3) and L(5,2).

The transformation rule for a reflection in the x-axis is:

$(x,y)\to (x,-y)$

We substitute the points to obtain the coordinates of the image triangle J'K'L'

$J(2,3)\to J'(2,-3)$

$K(4,3)\to K'(4,-3)$

$L(5,2)\to L'(5,-2)$

In other words, we negate the y-coordinates of triangle JKL to obtain the coordinates of J'K'L'

Consider the linear transformation T from V = P2 to W = P2 given by T(a0 + a1t + a2t2) = (2a0 + 3a1 + 3a2) + (6a0 + 4a1 + 4a2)t

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

$[T]EE=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&3&3\\6&4&4\\-2&3&4\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we start by finding the dimension of the matrix [T]EE

The dimension is : Dim (W) x Dim (V) = 3 x 3

Because the dimension of P2 is the number of vectors in any basis of P2 and that number is 3

Then, we are looking for a 3 x 3 matrix.

To find [T]EE we must transform the vectors of the basis E and then that result express it in terms of basis E using coordinates and putting them into columns. The order in which we transform the vectors of basis E is very important.

The first vector of basis E is e1(t) = 1

We calculate T[e1(t)] = T(1)

In the equation : 1 = a0

$T(1)=(2.1+3.0+3.0)+(6.1+4.0+4.0)t+(-2.1+3.0+4.0)t^{2}=2+6t-2t^{2}$

$[T(e1)]E=\left[\begin{array}{c}2&6&-2\\\end{array}\right]$

And that is the first column of [T]EE

The second vector of basis E is e2(t) = t

We calculate T[e2(t)] = T(t)

in the equation : 1 = a1

$T(t)=(2.0+3.1+3.0)+(6.0+4.1+4.0)t+(-2.0+3.1+4.0)t^{2}=3+4t+3t^{2}$

$[T(e2)]E=\left[\begin{array}{c}3&4&3\\\end{array}\right]$

Finally, the third vector of basis E is $e3(t)=t^{2}$

$T[e3(t)]=T(t^{2})$

in the equation : a2 = 1

$T(t^{2})=(2.0+3.0+3.1)+(6.0+4.0+4.1)t+(-2.0+3.0+4.1)t^{2}=3+4t+4t^{2}$

Then

$[T(t^{2})]E=\left[\begin{array}{c}3&4&4\\\end{array}\right]$

And that is the third column of [T]EE

Let's write our matrix

$[T]EE=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&3&3\\6&4&4\\-2&3&4\end{array}\right]$

T(X) = AX

Where T(X) is to apply the transformation T to a vector of P2,A is the matrix [T]EE and X is the vector of coordinates in basis E of a vector from P2

For example, if X is the vector of coordinates from e1(t) = 1

$X=\left[\begin{array}{c}1&0&0\\\end{array}\right]$

$AX=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&3&3\\6&4&4\\-2&3&4\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}1&0&0\\\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}2&6&-2\\\end{array}\right]$

Applying the coordinates 2,6 and -2 to the basis E we obtain

$2+6t-2t^{2}$

That was the original result of T[e1(t)]
