Answer:

25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information that is needed to solve the problem;

The formula for the perimeter is:

2(a+b) = P

where "a" is the length and "b" is the width.

2. Solving the problem;

Substitute the given values into the formula;

2( 5 + b ) = 58

Inverse operations;

2 ( 5 + b ) = 58

/2               /2

5 + b = 29

-5        -5

b = 25

This rational expression is nonequivalent. 5x / 25x^4 ; x^3 / 5x^15<br> True or false?????
FromTheMoon [43]

It is nonequivalent. Figure it out this way. Think about what number has to be multiplied by both the numerator and the denominator of \frac{5x}{25x^4} to get to \frac{x^3}{5x^15}. It has to be the samee number for the one expression to be equivalent to the other. To get from 5x to x^3, we have to multiply by 1/5x^2. When we do that we get x^3. Good. Now we have to multiply the denominator by the same thing, 1/5x^2. 25x^4(\frac{1}{5}x^2)=5x^6. As you can see, they are not equivalent.

Window design. A triangular window on Ross camp's new scary boat has two sides that measure 87 centimeters 64 centimeter, respec
krek1111 [17]
Since the perimeter must not exceed 291.
Let the third side be x.

x + 87 + 64  < 291
x + 151 < 291.
x            < 291 -151.
x   <  140.      (First)

But for a triangle there is what is called the Triangle Inequality Theorem.  That given  the two sides of a tringle, the third side of the triangle must greater than the positive difference between the two sides and less than the sum of the two sides.

So for this case.   87 and 64.

x  > ( 87 - 64).    x  > 23.
x < (87 + 64)      x  <  151. Combine both inequalities.

       23  < x < 151  (second).

Combining First and second. Both must be satisfied.
So we have  a more accurate answer as:


23 < x < 140.      x is greater than 23 and x is less than 140.

x  could be    24, 25, 26, 27, ......, 139.  cm.

I hope this helps.

2x+2y=8 in function form step by step please?
nasty-shy [4]
You could get two different functions out of this:

<u>2x + 2y = 8</u>

1). <u> 'y' as a function of 'x'</u>

Subtract  2x  from each side:  2y  = -2x + 8

Divide each side by  2 :         <em> y  =  -x + 4</em>


2). <u> 'x' as a function of 'y' :</u>

Subtract  2y  from each side:    2x  =  -2y + 8

Divide each side by  2 :        <em>  x  =  -y + 4</em>

Those two functions look the same, but that's just because the original
equation given in the problem was so symmetrical.  In general, they're
not the same function.
