Answer:

Width is 2 and Length is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. As the data is given, the area of a playground is 12 square yards.
  2. The length of the playground is 3 times longer than its width.  
  3. Let width is x, length is 3 times therefore, length = 3x

As we know the formula for area,

  • Area=length x width.

So by putting values in this formula,

  • 12sq = (3x)(x)  

=> 3x2 = 12

=> x2 = 12/3,

=> x2 = 4 ,

by taking square root we get x= 2,

  • the width is 2 and length is 3 times hence, length is 3(2) = 6.

What is 7.69/43.685=?<br> including long division <br> I'll give brainliest.
Minchanka [31]

Question

what is 7.69/43.685=?

Answer:

The Correct Answer is 5.6 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the divisor 7.69 to a whole number by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right. Then move the decimal point in the dividend the same, 2 places to the right.

We then have the equations:

4368.5 ÷ 769 = 5.6

and therefore:

43.685 ÷ 7.69 = 5.6

Both calculated to 1 decimal places.

The average age for a person getting married for the first time is 26 years (U.S. News and World Report, June 6, 1994). Assume t
leva [86]

Answer: 90% of people getting married for the first time get married before age of 31.13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The average age (\mu) for a person getting married for the first time is 26 years (U.S. News and World Report, June 6, 1994).

We assume that  the ages for first marriages have a normal distribution with a standard deviation (\sigma) of 4 years.

Let x be the age before that 90% of people getting married for the first time get married.

From z-table , the value corresponds to p-value of 0.90 is 1.28155.

Formula : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

1.28155=\dfrac{x-26}{4}\\\\ x-26=4\times1.28155\\\\ x-26=5.1262\\\\ x=5.1262+26=31.1262\approx31.13

Hence, 90% of people getting married for the first time get married before age of 31.13.
