Find the perimeter of a square with side a. Are the perimeter of the square and the length of its side directly proportional qua

inna [77]

The perimeter of a square with side a = 7.2 cm is 28.8 cm. Yes there exists a direct proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter of square

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given that side of square "a" = 7.2 cm

We have to find the perimeter of square

The perimeter of square is given as:

Perimeter of square = 4a

Where "a" represents the length of side of square

Substituting the given value a = 7.2 cm in above formula, we get perimeter of square

Perimeter of square = 4(7.2) = 28.8 cm

Are the perimeter of the square and the length of its side directly proportional quantities?

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { perimeter of square }=4 a=4 \times \text { length of side }} \\\\ {\frac{\text { perimeter of square }}{\text { length of side }}=4}\end{array}$

The Perimeter is equal to a constant times the Side length, or the Perimeter divided by the Side length is equal to four. So this is definitely a proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter.

Two values are said to be in direct proportion when an increase in one results in an increase in the other.

So when length of sides increases, perimeter also increases

Hence perimeter and length of side of square are directly propotional quantities

Rabies is an often-fatal disease typically transmitted through the bite of an infected animal. The state of Florida has been rec

slega [8]

Answer:

a) 3.6

b) 1.897

c)0.0273

d) 0.9727

Step-by-step explanation:

Rabies has a rare occurrence and we can assume that events are independent. So, X the count of rabies cases reported in a given week is a Poisson random variable with μ=3.6.

a)

The mean of a Poisson random variable X is μ.

mean=E(X)=μ=3.6.

b)

The standard deviation of a Poisson random variable X is √μ.

standard deviation=S.D(X)=√μ=√3.6=1.897.

c)

The probability for Poisson random variable X can be calculated as

P(X=x)=(e^-μ)(μ^x)/x!

where x=0,1,2,3,...

So,

P(no case of rabies)=P(X=0)=e^-3.6(3.6^0)/0!

P(no case of rabies)=P(X=0)=0.0273.

d)

P(at least one case of rabies)=P(X≥1)=1-P(X<1)=1-P(X=0)

P(at least one case of rabies)=1-0.0273=0.9727

An officeSupply company is shipping a case of paper to school. There are 10 reams of paper in the case. If each ream of paper aw

Alenkasestr [34]

------------------------------------
Find 10 reams
------------------------------------
1 ream = 32 ounces
10 reams = 32 x 10
10 reams = 320 ounces

------------------------------------
Convert ounce to pound:
------------------------------------
1 ounce = 0.0625
10 ounces = 0.0625 x 10
10 ounces = 0.625 pounds

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Each case weighs 0.625 pound.
