Answer:

The perimeter is multiplied by 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle:

The perimeter of a rectangle with sides l and w is given by:

$P = 2(l + w)$

The side lengths of a rectangle are all multiplied by 5.

This means that $l = 5l, w = 5w$ . So

$P_M = 2(5l + 5w) = 2*5(l+w) = 10(l + w)$

What happens to its perimeter?

The rate is:

$\frac{P_M}{P} = \frac{10(l+w)}{2(l+w)} = 5$

The perimeter is multiplied by 5.

Which graph represents the function f(x)= 0.2^x + 3

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The third graph or bottom left graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

To determine which of the given graphs represents the equation $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3$ , we substitute some values in the place of x.

When $x=0,$ $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(0) = 0.2^{0} + 3= 4.$

Anything with an exponent of 0 will equal 1.

So the graphs on the right side cannot be the answers.

Step 2:

Now we substitute another value to determine which graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$

When $x=1,$ $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(1) = 0.2^{1} + 3= 4.2.$

The value of f(x) when $x=1$ is lesser than the value of f(x) when $x =0.$

So the third graph or bottom left graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$
