Answer:

If you don't know it off the top of your head, work backwards.

48/4=12

Check:

12(4)=48

Answer:

Length equals 14

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be written out as 2 equations

Since we know the perimeter (P) is 48, we can use the formula 2l+2w=P and get 2l+2w=48.

Then we can take the other equation, w+4=l (which I got from the second sentence), and substitute it for l in the equation.

This can be written out as- 2(w+4) + 2w=48

Then we distribute and get 2w + 2w + 8 = 48, simplifying to 4w + 8= 48

We then subtract 8 from 48 and get 4w=40, dividing 40 by 4 to get w=10.

then, we add 4 to w to get 14.

Answer:

d 11/6

Step-by-step explanation:

find the common denominate for -1/2 which is 3/6 make sure you remember the rule of integers adding if they have diffrent sign there gonna be postive if they have the same sign there negative look up the role it will help you a lot find the common denominator which and then add like normal if it ask for it s lowest term then find the lowest term have a good day if you have question please type in the comments if you need more help

What is the equation of the line that represents the horizontal asymptote of the function f(x)=25,000(1+0.025)^(x)?

posledela

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal asymptote of a function f(x) is gotten by finding the limit as x ⇒ ∞ or x ⇒ -∞. If the limit gives you a finite value, then your asymptote is at that point.

$\lim_{x \to \infty} f(x)=A\\\\or\\\\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)=A\\\\where\ A\ is\ a\ finite\ value.\\\\Given\ that \ f(x) =25000(1+0.025)^x\\\\ \lim_{x \to \infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to \infty} [25000(1+0.025)^x]= \lim_{x \to \infty} [25000(1.025)^x]\\=25000 \lim_{x \to \infty} [(1.025)^x]=25000(\infty)=\infty\\\\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to -\infty} [25000(1+0.025)^x]= \lim_{x \to -\infty} [25000(1.025)^x]\\=25000 \lim_{x \to -\infty} [(1.025)^x]=25000(0)=0\\\\$
