Let length be x feet
length= x 
width=x-4
area = 32
length * width=32
x(x-4)=32
x^2 - 4 x -32=0
(x-8)(x+4)=0
x=8 feet
length=8 feet
width=4 feet
perimeter=2(len+wid)
               =2(8+4)
                2*12=24 feet

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

That is 1 - (1/4 + 2/5 + 1/10).

The Lowest common multiple  4 5 and 10 is 20 so we have

20/20 - (5/20 + 8/20 + 2/20)

=  20/20 - 15/20

= 5/20

= 1/4 answer.

The initial temperature of a cup of tea is 200ºF. The surrounding temperature is 70ºF, and the value of the constant k is 0.6.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Newton's Law of Cooling states that the change of the temperature of an object is proportional to the difference between its own temperature and the ambient temperature over time.

Therefore when expressed mathematically, this is equivalent to:

dT = - k (T – Ts) dt

dT / (T – Ts) = - k dt

Integrating:

ln [(T2– Ts) / (T1– Ts)] = - k (t2 – t1)

Before we plug in the values, let us first convert the temperatures into absolute values R (rankine) by adding 460.

R = ˚F + 460

T1 = 200 + 460 = 660 R

Ts = 70 + 460 = 530 R

ln [(T2– 530) / (660 – 530)] = - 0.6 (2 - 0)

T2 = 569.16 R

T2 = 109 ºF

Answer: After 2 hours, it will be 109 ºF

What is the multiplicative rate of change for the exponential function f(x) = f start bracket x end bracket equals two start bra
jeka94

Answer:

The multiplicative rate of change is \dfrac{2}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the function

f(x)=2\cdot \left(\dfrac{5}{2}\right)^{-x}

First, use the following property of exponents

\left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^{-x}=\left(\dfrac{b}{a}\right)^{x}

So, your function is

f(x)=2\cdot \left(\dfrac{2}{5}\right)^{x}

If the exponential function is written in the form

f(x)=a\cdot b^x,

then b is the multiplicative rate of change for this exponential function.

In your case, the multiplicative rate of change is \dfrac{2}{5}.

Which table describes the behavior of the graph of f(x) = 2x³ - 26x - 24?
Anna71 [15]
After you have plotted the graph of the polynomial, the x-intercepts of the given polynomial will be:
(-3,0),(-1,0) and (4,0)
therefore the interval will be:
(-∞,-3)-below, (-3,-1)-above,(-1,4)-below,(4,∞)-above

What do the differences between the points (as shown on the graph) represent?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

They represent the rise and run of the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The difference between the x-axis of the points represents the "run" of the graph (or how much you should run along x-axis to get to the next point.)</em>

<em>The difference between the y-axis of of the points represents the "rise" of the graph (or how much you should rise up the y-xis to get to the next point).</em>

The ratio of rise to run is the slope of the graph, which tells us  how many steps should we take on the y-axis for every step we move forward on the x-axis.
