Answer:

The dimensions of the bar are width = 4.68099 feet and length = 10.06198 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A chocolate bar has a rectangular shape, therefore it's area is given by the following formula:

area = width*length

In this case the length is 0.7 feet longer than twice the width, therefore:

length = 2*width + 0.7

Applying the second equation on the first one and using the data from the question we have:

47.1 = width*(2*width + 0.7)

47.1 = 2*width² + 0.7*width

2*width² + 0.7*width = 47.1

width² + 0.35*width = 23.55

width = \frac{-0.35 \pm \sqrt{0.35^2 -4*1*(-23.55)}}{2*1} = -0.175 \pm 4,85599

width = 4.68099 or width = -5.03099

Since the width can't be negative, it can only be 4.68099 feet.

length = 2*4.68099 + 0.7 = 10.06198 feet.

Lina20 [59]
Each long piece is composed of 10 unit blocks (smallest squares). 

The three long pieces means that they make up 3*10 = 30 units so far. Add on the 5 extra units and we have 30+5 = 35 units total

If we have 35 squares, then we can group them up into groups of 5. Doing so will leave you with 7 groups.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

follows are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the correct question in the attached file:

The formula for calculating the Confidence interval of proportion:

\to CI=\hat{p} \pm Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}\\\\\to  \hat{p}=\frac{\text{lower limit +upper limit}}{2}\\

      =\frac{0.48+0.60}{2}\\\\=\frac{1.08}{2}\\\\=0.54

The number of learners with access to working at home on a computer:

= 0.54 \times 300 \\\\=162

Lower limit =0.48

upper limit = 0.60

\to margin \ error = \frac{\text{upper limit - lower limit}}{2}\\

                          =\frac{0.60-0.48}{2}\\\\=\frac{0.12}{2}\\\\= 0.06

1 hour is 550 miles how many miles would 1 hour and 42 minutes be
shepuryov [24]
935 miles. This is because it takes 1 minute to travel 9.16667 miles. There is 102 minutes in 1 hour and 42 minutes, so you take 9.16667 * 102, this gets you 935 miles. Hope this helps.
