What is the area of these parallelograms? 1. the perimeter is 33 <br> 2. the perimeter is 64
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

4.5 + 4.5 + 7.5 + 3 + 9 + 4.5 = 33 is the perimeter of the first shape

The area is (4.5 x 7.5) + (3 x 9) = 60.75

(Cut the figure)

Perimeter of the Second Shape is:

22 + 22 + 10 + 10 = 64

Area is: 22 x 10 = 220

Area of a parallelogram is: L x W

Simplify. Your answer should contain only positive exponents with no fractional exponents in the denominator.
mart [117]

Answer:

\dfrac{x^{\frac{2}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{4}}}{4y^{2}}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is  

\dfrac{3y^{\frac{1}{4}}}{4x^{-\frac{2}{3}}y^{\frac{3}{2}}\cdot 3y^{\frac{1}{2}}}

We need to simplify the expression such that answer should contain only positive exponents with no fractional exponents in the denominator.

Using properties of exponents, we get

\dfrac{3}{4\cdot 3}\cdot \dfrac{y^{\frac{1}{4}}}{x^{-\frac{2}{3}}y^{\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}}    [\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]

\dfrac{1}{4}\cdot \dfrac{y^{\frac{1}{4}}}{x^{-\frac{2}{3}}y^{2}}

\dfrac{1}{4}\cdot \dfrac{x^{\frac{2}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{4}}}{y^{2}}         [\because a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}]

\dfrac{x^{\frac{2}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{4}}}{4y^{2}}

We can not simplify further because on further simplification we get negative exponents in numerator or fractional exponents in the denominator.

Therefore, the required expression is \dfrac{x^{\frac{2}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{4}}}{4y^{2}}.

The graph of g is the graph of f translated horizontally 3 units to the left. If f(x) = 2x + 1 what is an equation for the funct
mart [117]

Answer: g(x) = 2(x + 3) + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have an horizontal translation of A units (A is a positive real number) to the right, we write this as:

g(x) = f(x - A)

If the translation is to the left, then we have:

g(x) = f(x + A).

In this case, we have a translation to the left, and A = 3, then:

g(x) = f(x + 3)

And we know that:

f(x) = 2x + 1

g(x) = f(x + 3) = 2*(x + 3) + 1 = 2x + 6 + 1 = 2x + 7

g(x) = 2x + 7

Given 2x^2=-8, x is<br><br> A.-2<br> B. 2<br> C. 2i or -2i<br> D. 4i or -4i
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

2i or -2i

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² = -8     First, clear x.

x² = -8/2    Solve

x² = -4        Now, eliminate the square of x by solving the square root of -4.

x = √-4

x = 2i or -2i Is an imaginary number.
