Answer:

15m

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, she needs 120 meters, which means we already know the circumference (P). P is the sum of all sides.

The lenght (a) is 3 times the width(b).

a = 3b.

Which means if a is x then b is equal to 3x

Since P is the sum of all sides, P is equal to 2a + 2b or 2x + 2*3x = 2x + 6x = 8x

120 = 8x. We are now left with an equation that has one variable only, all we need to do is to divide 120 by 8 to find what x is equal to.

8x = 120

x = 120 / 8

x = 15

We know that width(a) is equal to x, so that's the answer.

Here's a solution you can write:

P = 120m

w = x

l = 3w = 3x

P = 2w + 2l

P = 2*x + 2*3x

P = 2x + 6x

P = 8x

8x = 120

x = 120 / 8

x = 15

w = x -> w = 15m

Answer:

the width is 1.5meters

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of the fence is 120m

the perimeter= 3w+w+3w+w

120= 3w+w+3w+w

120= 8w

w=1.5m

Two alloys A and B are being used to manufacture a certain steel product. An experiment needs to be designed to compare the two
sveta [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, we can compute the table showing the summarized statistics of the two alloys A & B:

                                            Alloy A        Alloy B

Sample mean                    \bar {x} _A = 49.5      \bar {x} _B = 45.5

Equal standard deviation    \sigma_A = 5         \sigma_B= 5

Sample size                          n_A = 30        n_{B}= 30

Mean of the sampling distribution is :

\mu_{\bar{X_1}-\bar{X_2}}= 49.5-45.5  \\ \\ = 4.0

Standard deviation of sampling distribution:

\sigma_{\bar{x_1}-\bar{x_2} }= \sqrt{\sigma^2_{\bar{x_1}-\bar{x_2} }} \\ \\ = \sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1} + \dfrac{\sigma^2_2}{n_2} } \\ \\ =\sqrt{\dfrac{25}{30}+\dfrac{25}{30}} \\\\=\sqrt{1.667}  \\ \\ =1.2909

Hypothesis testing.

Null hypothesis:  H_o: \mu_A -\mu_B = 0

Alternative hypothesis:  H_A:\mu_A -\mu_B > 4

The required probability is:

P(\overline X_A - \overline X_B>4|\mu_A - \mu_B) = P\Big (\dfrac{(\overline X_A - \overline X_B)-\mu_{X_A-X_B}}{\sigma_{\overline x_A -\overline x_B}} > \dfrac{4 - \mu_{X_A-\overline X_B}}{\sigma _{\overline x_A - \overline X_B}}   \Big) \\ \\ = P \Big( z > \dfrac{4-0}{1.2909}\Big) \\ \\ = P(z \ge 3.10)\\ \\ = 1 - P(z < 3.10) \\ \\ \text{Using EXCEL Function:} \\ \\  = 1 - [NORMDIST(3.10)]  \\ \\ = 1- 0.999032 \\ \\ 0.000968 \\ \\ \simeq  0.0010

This implies that a minimal chance of probability shows that the difference of 4 is not likely, provided that the two population means are the same.

b)

Since the P-value is very small which is lower than any level of significance.

Then, we reject H_o and conclude that there is enough evidence to fully support alloy A.

Two dice are rolled. Define the events as follows: A : sum of 7, B : doubles, C : sum of 8
love history [14]

Answer: for a sum of 7 would either be 6 and 1, 5 and 2 or 4 and 3. you can roll a double 1,2,3,4,5,6. the sum of 8 would be 2 and 6, 3 and 5 and a double 4,

Step-by-step explanation:

well the there are six sides on a die so 6 x 2 is 12 so the max sum you can get is 12. So you take 7 and you start adding up to 7, same thing for sum of 8. since there is 6 sides and a pair of dices you will roll six doubles

15. Describe and correct the error in finding the intercepts of the graph of the equation.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Wrong order!

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a reason why coordinates are called an "ordered pair", and for every point (a, b) a is the x coordinate and b is the y coordinate. The calculations are correct, the way reporting them are not: the point should be (3.0) and (0,2) - in fact, all points on the x axis are of the form (p, 0) and all points on the y axis of the form (0,q)
