Answer:

Length is 20 meters and Width is 16 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a 4-sided figure with 2 pair of parallel sides.

The perimeter is the sum of all 4 sides of the parallelogram.

Let the length of parallelogram be x and width be y.

The perimeter is 72, thus we can write:

x + x + y + y = 72

or

2x + 2y = 72

Also, width is 4 less than length, thus we can write:

y = x - 4

Now, we replace the 1st equation with the 2nd equation and solve for x first. Shown below:

2x + 2y = 72

2x + 2(x - 4) = 72

2x + 2x - 8 = 72

4x = 72 + 8

4x = 80

x = 80/4 = 20

And now y:

y = x - 4

y = 20 - 4

y = 16

Thus, the Length is 20 meters and Width is 16 meters

Please help me out!​
seropon [69]

Answer:

Second option

Third option

Fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following quadratic function

f(x) =(x-1)(x+7)

Use the distributive property to multiply the expression

f(x) =x^2+7x-x-7

f(x) =x^2+6x-7

For a function of the form f (x) = ax ^ 2 + bx + c the x coordinate of the vertex is:

x =-\frac{b}{2a}

Then in this case the coordinate of the vertex is:

x =-\frac{6}{2(1)}

x =-3

To obtain the y coordinate of the vertex we evaluate the function at x = -3

f(-3) =(-3)^2+6(-3)-7

f(-3) =9-18-7

f(-3) =-16

Then the vertex is:  (-3, -16)

We can see in the graph that the zeros of the function are x=1 and x=-7

Then the function is decreasing from -∞ to -3 and then it is increasing from -3 to ∞

The function is positive for x and x> 1

The correct answers are:

Second option

Third option

Fourth option

Given f(x) = x2 + 4x − 1 and g(x) = 5x − 7, identify (fg)(x).
8_murik_8 [283]
<span> f(x) = x^2 + 4x − 1 and g(x) = 5x − 7
</span>(fg)(x) =  (x^2 + 4x − 1)(5x − 7)
(fg)(x) = 5x^3 + 20x^2 - 5x - 7x^2 - 28x + 7
(fg)(x) =  5x^3 + 13x^2 - 33x + 7

answer is C. third choice

(fg)(x) =  5x^3 + 13x^2 - 33x + 7

To speed the process of surveying, surveyors use brass metal plates to record important information. The benchmarks, as they are
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Feet Above Sea Level

Step-by-step explanation:

A benchmark is a term in Surveying and Geo informatics, that describes a point of reference established at a known elevation which serves as basis in which other elevation or topographical point can be measured.

Therefore, when determining the benchmark, it's height is calculated relative to the vertical datum of the area, typically mean sea level, which is then recorded in FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL.

Hence, Benchmarks measurements refer to FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL.
