The maximum area of the rectangular path is when the length is 24 feet and the width is 12 feet.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the length and y represent the width. Hence:

There is 48 feet of fencing:

x + 2y = 48

x  = 48 - 2y   (1)

The area (A) is:

A = xy = y(48 - 2y)

A = 48y - 2y²

The maximum area is at A' = 0, hence:

48 - 4y = 0

y = 12

x = 48 - 2(12) = 24

The maximum area of the rectangular path is when the length is 24 feet and the width is 12 feet.

Answer:

  the height when the plant was planted

Step-by-step explanation:

The "y-intercept" is the value of the dependent variable (height) when the independent variable (days) has a value of zero.

The table description tells you the table represents height since the plant was planted. If days since the plant was planted are zero, the height at that time is the height when the plant was planted.

Weights of cars passing over a bridge part 2<br>​
DaniilM [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to this problem is very much similar to your previous ones, already answered by Sqdancefan.

Given:

mean,  mu = 3550 lbs (hope I read the first five correctly, and it's not a six)

standard deviation, sigma = 870 lbs

weights are normally distributed, and assume large samples.

Probability to be estimated between W1=2800 and W2=4500 lbs.

Solution:

We calculate Z-scores for each of the limits in order to estimate probabilities from tables.

For W1 (lower limit),

Z1=(W1-mu)/sigma = (2800 - 3550)/870 = -.862069

From tables, P(Z<Z1) = 0.194325

For W2 (upper limit):

Z2=(W2-mu)/sigma = (4500-3550)/879 = 1.091954

From tables, P(Z<Z2) = 0.862573

Therefore probability that weight is between W1 and W2 is

P( W1 < W < W2 )

= P(Z1 < Z < Z2)

= P(Z<Z2) - P(Z<Z1)

= 0.862573 - 0.194325

= 0.668248

= 0.67 (to the hundredth)
