The ratio of length to width in a rectangle is 3 to 1. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 120 feet, what is the length of the

ipn [44]

Answer:

a = length

b = height(width)

a=3b

2(a+b)=120

2(b+3b)=2(4b)=8b

8b=120

b=15

a=45

length is 45 feet

width is 15 feet

If x^2=20 what is the value of x will give brainliest for answer

Schach [20]

Answer:

x² - 20 = 0

Using the quadratic formula

$x = \frac{ - b± \sqrt{( {b})^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}$

a = 1 b = 0 c = -20

So we have

$x = \frac{ - 0 ± \sqrt{ {0}^{2} - 4(1)( -20)} }{2(1)} \\ \\ x = \frac{± \sqrt{80} }{2} \\ \\ x = \frac{±4 \sqrt{5} }{2} \\ \\ \\ x = ±2 \sqrt{5} \\ \\ \\ x = 2 \sqrt{5} \: \: \: or \: \: \: x = - 2 \sqrt{5}$

Hope this helps you.

Find the value of y in the solution to the system of equations shown.<br> y= 12x+7<br> y=-6x+25

padilas [110]

Answer: The required value of y is 19.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of y in the solution to the following system of equations :

$y=12x+7~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\y=-6x+25~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

Comparing equations (i) and (ii), we get

$12x+7=-6x+25\\\\\Rightarrow 12x+6x=25-7\\\\\Rightarrow 18x=18\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{18}{18}\\\\\Rightarrow x=1.$

From equation (i), we get

$y=12\times1+7=12+7=19.$

Thus, the required value of y is 19.

What is the best approximation for the input value when f(x)=g(x)?

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$x=0$ and $x=1$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have to different functions like the ones attached, one is a parabolic function and the other is a radical function. To know where $f(x)=g(x)$ , we just have to equalize them and find the solution for that equation:

$x^{2}=\sqrt{x} \\(x^{2} )^{2}=(\sqrt{x} )^{2}\\x^{4}=x\\x^{4}-x=0\\x(x^{3}-1)=0\\$

So, applying the zero product property, we have:

$x=0\\x^{3}-1=0\\x^{3}=1\\x=\sqrt[3]{1}=1$

Therefore, these two solutions mean that there are two points where both functions are equal, that is, when $x=0$ and $x=1$ .

So, the input values are $x=0$ and $x=1$ .
