Answer:

Length = 12 inches

Width = 14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is;

P = 2(L + W)

Where;

L is length

W is width

We are told that the length is 2 inches shorter than its width. Thus;

L = (W - 2)

Thus,perimeter is now;

P = 2(W - 2 + W)

P = 2(2W - 2)

P = 4W - 4

We are told that the perimeter is 52. Thus;

4W - 4 = 52

4W = 52 + 4

4W = 56

W = 56/4

W = 14 inches

From L = (W - 2) ;

L = 14 - 2

L = 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Function 'f' with two variables 'x' and 'y'.

To find:

Function rule if the parent function 'f' is rotated by 270° clockwise.

Solution:

A function given with two variables 'x' and 'y',

f(x,y) → (x, y)

If this function is rotated by 270° clockwise, the function rule will become,

f(x, y) → (-y, x)

Therefore, Option A will be the correct option.

Can someone explain why A is the right answer to this question? I'm unsure of how to work out this problem.

So firstly, we have to find the radius of the circular garden before finding the circumference (the amount of fencing needed to surround the garden). To find the radius, use the area formula ( $A=\pi r^2$ ), plug in the area of the garden (36 ft^2) and solve for r as such:
