Answer:

Perimeter of the rectangle = 8 x +4

Length of the rectangle = 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle as 'x' units.

So, length of the rectangle is 2 more than 3 x.

We can set up expression for length as 3 x+2.

Now, perimeter is sum of all side lengths of the rectangle.

So, perimeter = x+x+3 x+2 +3 x+2

Combine like terms,

Perimeter = 8 x+4

Now, it is given perimeter is 36cm

So,

8 x+4=36

Subtract both sides 4

8 x=32

Divide both sides by 8

x=4

So, width of the rectangle =4

Length =3(4) +2=14

Given the function f(x) =-2x+3x^2-5, what is the right end behavior
Leto [7]
The right-end behaviour of all polynomials is always (i.e. whether highest power is odd or even) increasing when the leading coefficient (coefficient of the highest powered variable) is positive.
Otherwise, it is decreasing.

The leading coefficient is +3 (i.e. positive), corresponding to the term +3x^2.
