Answer:

A. Function 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of Function 2 can be found using the slope formula:

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

m = (-8 -(-2))/(3 -0) = -6/3

The slope of function 1 can be found by comparing the equation to the slope-intercept equation for a line:

y = mx + b . . . . . . equation with slope m and y-intercept b

The slope of Function 1 is -7/3.

-7/3 is more negative than -6/3, so Function 1 has the more negative slope.

The length of a rectangle is 9.7 cm more than 4 times the width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 68.4 cm, what are its dime

aleksklad [387]

P = 2(L + W)
P = 68.4
L = 4W + 9.7

68.4 = 2(4W + 9.7 + W)
68.4 = 2(5W + 9.7)
68.4 = 10W + 19.4
68.4 - 19.4 = 10W
49 = 10W
49/10 = W
4.9 = W <==== the width is 4.9 cm

L = 4W + 9.7
L = 4(4.9) + 9.7
L = 19.6 + 9.7
L = 29.3 <=== the length is 29.3 cm

What is the surface area of the right prism?

dybincka [34]

We have three pairs of rectangles:

16ft × 6ft = 96ft²

2ft × 6ft = 12ft²

2ft × 16ft = 32ft²

S.A. = 2 × (96 + 12 + 32) = 2 × 140 = 280ft².

<h3>Answer: C.) 280ft²</h3>
