They building in the city has a rectangular base. the length of the base measures 60 ft less than twice the width. the perimeter of this base is 930ft. what are the dimensions of the base?

the length of the base is 290ft

The width of the base is 175 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the building is rectangular in shape.

Let L represent the length of the base of the building.

Let W represent the width of the base of the building.

The length of the base measures 60 ft less than twice the width. This means that

L = 2W - 60 - - - - - - - - -1

The perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as 2(length + width).

The perimeter of this base is 930ft. It means that

2(L + W) = 930

L + W = 930/2 = 465- - - - - - 2

Substituting equation 1 into equation 2 , it becomes

2W - 60 + W = 465

3W = 465 + 60 = 525

W = 525/3 = 175

L = 465 - W = 465 - 175

L = 290

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

answer: there are 453.592 grams in a pound.
