Let's say x is going to be the number meters of the width of the room:
x: width
Since its lenght is 1.8 as it is width, then it will be 1.8 · x long:
1.8x: lenght
Step 2: relating the expressions for each side to its perimeterWe know that the perimeter of a rectangle is given by
Perimeter = 2· (width + lenght)
We know that the perimeter is 29 meters, then
Perimeter = 29
↓
29 = 2· (width + lenght)
We do know an expression for its width and lenght, we replace them:
29 = 2· (width + lenght)
↓
29 = 2· (x + 1.8x)
Step 3: finding xSince x + 1.8x = 2.8x:
29 = 2· (x + 1.8x)
↓
29 = 2· (2.8x)
↓ 2· 2.8 = 5.6
29 = 5.6x
↓ dividing both sides by 5.6
29/5.6 = 5.6x/5.6
5.2 = x
Final step: finding its dimensionsSince
x: width
then
Width = 5.2 meters
Since
1.8x: lenght
then
Lenght = 1.8 · 5.2 meters = 9.36 meters
Answer: the dimensions of the room are Width = 5.2 meters and Lenght = 9.36 meters
Find an equation of the line. Write the equation using function notation.
Through (4, -1); perpendicular to 4y=x-8
The equation of the line is f(x) =
The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (4,-1) is:
[tex]y = -4x+15[/tex].
What is a equation of line?These lines are written in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. We know from the question that our slope is 3 and our y-intercept is –5, so plugging these values in we get the equation of our line to be y = 3x – 5.
Given equation of line is:
4y=x-8
We have to convert the given line in slope-intercept form to find the slope of the line
Dividing both sides by 4.
[tex]y = \frac{1}{4}x-2[/tex]
Let [tex]m_{1}[/tex] be the slope of given line
Then,
[tex]m_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Let [tex]m_{2}[/tex] be the slope of line perpendicular to given line
As we know that product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.
[tex]m_{1}*m_{2} = -1\\\frac{1}{4}*m_{2}=-1\\ m_{2} = -4[/tex]
The slope intercept form of line is given by
[tex]y = m_{2}x+c[/tex]
[tex]y = -4x+c[/tex]
to find the value of c, putting (4,-1) in equation
[tex]-1 = -4*4+c\\-1+16 = c\\c = 15[/tex]
Putting the value of c in the equation
[tex]y=-4x+15[/tex]
Hence, The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (4,-1) is [tex]y = -4x+15[/tex].

Because x is continuous, we should use interval notation, the domain is:
D: [1, ∞)
How to find the domain?For a function y = f(x), we define the domain as the set of possible inputs of the function (possible values of x).
To identify the domain, we need to look at the horizontal axis. The minimum value is the one we can see in the left side, and the maximum is the one we could see on the right side.
There we can see that the domain starts at x = 1 and extends to the left, so the notation we can use for the domain is:
D: x ≥ 1
We know that the value x =1 belongs because there is a closed dot there.
The correct option is A, because the domain is continuous (as we can see in the graph), we should use interval notation. In this case the domain can be written as:
D: [1, ∞)

Which 3 pairs of side lengths are possible measurements for the triangle?
SOLUTION
From the right triangle with two interior angles of 45 degrees, the two legs are equal in length, that is AB = BC
And from Pythagoras, the square of the hypotenuse (AC) is equal to the square of the other two legs or sides (AB and AC)
So this means
[tex]\begin{gathered} |AC|^2=|AB|^2+|BC|^2 \\ since\text{ AB = BC} \\ |AC|^2=2|AB|^2,\text{ also } \\ |AC|^2=2|BC|^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]So from the first option
[tex]\begin{gathered} BC=10,AC=10\sqrt{2} \\ |AC|^2=(10\sqrt{2})^2=100\times2=200 \\ 2|BC|^2=2\times10^2=2\times100=200 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the 1st option is correct, so its possible
The second option
[tex]\begin{gathered} AB=9,AC=18 \\ |AC|^2=18^2=324 \\ 2|AB|^2=2\times9^2=2\times81=162 \\ 324\ne162 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the 2nd option is wrong, hence not possible
The 3rd option
[tex]\begin{gathered} BC=10\sqrt{3},AC=20 \\ |AC|^2=20^2=400 \\ 2|BC|^2=2\times(10\sqrt{3})^2=2\times100\times3=600 \\ 400\ne600 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the 3rd option is wrong, not possible
The 4th option
[tex]\begin{gathered} AB=9\sqrt{2},AC=18 \\ |AC|^2=18^2=324 \\ 2|AB|^2=2\times(9\sqrt{2})^2=2\times81\times2=324 \\ 324=324 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the 4th option is correct, it is possible
The 5th option
AB = BC
This is correct, and its possible
The last option
[tex]\begin{gathered} AB=7,BC=7\sqrt{3} \\ 7\ne7\sqrt{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]This is wrong and not possible because AB should be equal to BC
Hence the correct options are the options bolded, which are

B. They have the same x–intercept but different end behaviours as x approaches ∞What is the end behaviour of a graph?The end behaviour of a function is the description of how the function behaves towards the boundaries of the x–axis.
The given points on the exponential function, f, are;
(-0.25, 10), (0, 6), (5, -2) and also the x–intercept (1, 0)
The points on the function g, obtained from the table of the values for g(x), expressed as ordered pairs are;
(-1, 15), (0, 3), (1, 0), (2, -34), (3, -16)
The coordinates of the x–intercept is given by the point where the y–value is zero.
The x–intercept for the exponential function, f, is therefore (1, 0)
Similarly, the x–intercept for the function, g, is (1, 0)
Therefore, both functions have the same x–intercept
However, the end behaviour of the function, f, as the x approaches infinity is that f(x) approaches negative infinity, while the end behaviour of the function, g, as the the value of x approaches infinity is g(x) is increasing towards positive infinity.
The correct option is therefore;

Explanation:
The area of a triangle is equal to
[tex]Area\text{ =}\frac{Base\times Height}{2}[/tex]We know that the area is 32 ft² and the height is 4 ft, so replacing these values, we get

The percent error of the house of the pizza would be 2.
The difference between the estimated and actual values in comparison to the actual value is expressed as a percentage. In other words, the relative error multiplied by 100 equals the percent error.
How to calculate the percent error?Percent errors indicate the magnitude of our errors when measuring something in an analysis process. Lower percentage errors indicate that we are getting close to the accepted or original value.
Suppose the actual value and the estimated values after the measurement are obtained. Then we have:
Error = Actual value - Estimated value
To determine the percent error, we will measure how much percent of the actual value, the error is, in the estimated value.
We have been given that House of Pizza says that their pizzas are 14 inches wide, but when measured, the pizza was 12 inches.
WE know that Error = Actual value - Estimated value
Then Error = 14 - 12 = 2

D. 4
The number of times that 5.5 points is need to be scored to have a total gain greater than 15 points is A. 1
How to calculate the value?From the information, it was stated that there were - 3.25 points scored 4 times, -2.75 points scored 5 times, 3 points scored 2 times, and 5.5 points scored 4 times.
In this case, the entire score will be:

21. Juanita is packing a box that is 18 inches long and 9 inches high. The total volume of the box.1,944 cubic inches. Use the formula V = lwh to find the width of the box. Show your work
The width of the box is 12 inches
Explanations:
The formula for calculating the volume of a rectangular box is expressed as:
[tex]V=\text{lwh}[/tex]where:
• l is the ,length ,of the box
,• w is the ,width, of the box
,• h is the ,height ,of the box
Given the following parameters
• length = 18 inches
,• heigh = 9 inches
,• volume = 1,944 cubic inches
Substitute the given parameters into the formula to calculate the width of the box as shown:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1944=18\times w\times9 \\ 1944=162w \end{gathered}[/tex]Divide both sides by 162 to have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 162w=1944 \\ \frac{\cancel{162}w}{\cancel{162}}=\frac{1944}{162} \\ w=12\text{inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the width of the box is 12 inches
