A square region with perimeter 60 inches is made with square inch tiles. Bob removes one tile from the square and rearranges the

remaining tiles without any overlap to make a rectangular region with minimum perimeter. How many inches are in the perimeter

Answer:

  60 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter will be minimized when the tiles are rearranged to form a rectangle with dimensions as close to each other as possible.

<h3>Rectangle dimensions</h3>

The square has a side length of ...

  P = 4s   ⇒   s = P/4 . . . . . P is perimeter, s is side length

  (60 in)/4 = 15 in . . . . length of the side of the square

The square has an area of ...

  A = s²

  A = (15 in)² = 225 in²

When 1 tile is removed, the resulting area, in square inches, is ...

  A = 225 -1 = 15² -1² = (15 -1)(15 +1) = 14×16

<h3>Perimeter</h3>

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by ...

  P = 2(L+W)

For this rectangle, the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(14 in + 16 in) = 2(30 in) = 60 in

The perimeter of the rectangle is 60 inches.

Assume that you have a sample of n 1 equals 6​, with the sample mean Upper X overbar 1 equals 50​, and a sample standard deviati
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

t=\frac{(50 -38)-(0)}{7.46\sqrt{\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{5}}}=2.656

df=6+5-2=9

p_v =P(t_{9}>2.656) =0.0131

Since the p value is higher than the significance level given of 0.01 we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean for group 1 is significantly higher thn the true mean for the group 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

n_1 =6 represent the sample size for group 1

n_2 =5 represent the sample size for group 2

\bar X_1 =50 represent the sample mean for the group 1

\bar X_2 =38 represent the sample mean for the group 2

s_1=7 represent the sample standard deviation for group 1

s_2=8 represent the sample standard deviation for group 2

System of hypothesis

The system of hypothesis on this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_1 \leq \mu_2

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_1 > \mu_2

We are assuming that the population variances for each group are the same

\sigma^2_1 =\sigma^2_2 =\sigma^2

The statistic for this case is given by:

t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{S_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}

The pooled variance is:

S^2_p =\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1 +(n_2 -1)S^2_2}{n_1 +n_2 -2}

We can find the pooled variance:

S^2_p =\frac{(6-1)(7)^2 +(5 -1)(8)^2}{6 +5 -2}=55.67

And the pooled deviation is:

S_p=7.46

The statistic is given by:

t=\frac{(50 -38)-(0)}{7.46\sqrt{\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{5}}}=2.656

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=6+5-2=9

The p value is given by:

p_v =P(t_{9}>2.656) =0.0131

Since the p value is higher than the significance level given of 0.01 we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean for group 1 is significantly higher thn the true mean for the group 2.

Gabi tried to solve an equation step by step.<br> 0.1(0.5m+6)=2
agasfer [191]

Answer:

m=28

Step-by-step explanation:

0.1(0.5m+6)=2

Distribute

.05m +.6 =2

Subtract .6 from each side  

.05m +.6-.6 = 2-.6

.05m = 1.4

Divide each side by .05

.05m/.05 = 1.4/.05

m = 28
