Answer:
L=21.6in and w=13.6
Step-by-step explanation:
If the length is 8 inches longer than its width, we can write the width as "w" and the length as the width w+ 8
Area is (width)(Length) = (width)(width+8)
W
----------

| | L = w+8

-----------
A = (w+8)(w)
A = w2 + 8w = 295.
(Problem states that area is 295 sq in)
Need to solve this quadratic equation
w2 +8y - 295 = 0
Factor:
(w - 13.64) (w + 21.64) = 0
So
w - 13.64 = 0. or. w + 21.64= 0
Solve these and get
w = 13.64. or. w = -21.64
Only one that makes sense in real life is the poitive one.
So the dimensions are
Width = 13.64 inches
Length = 21.64 inches
1. Answer: given: an average of 28 pounds
a.
Find z values corresponding to 27 and 31:
z=%2827-28%29%2F2=-1%2F2=-0.5
z=%2831-28%29%2F2=3%2F2=1.5
Find the area between z+=+-0.5 and z=+1.5
Table E gives us an area of 0.9332-0.30=0.6247=> The probability is 62.47%
b.
Find z values corresponding to 30.2
z=%2830.2-28%29%2F2=2.2%2F2=1.1 Find the area to the right of z+=1.1
it gives you an area of 0.1357=> The probability is 13.57%
Christine crawled:
3 ft* (3/4)= 2.25 ft.
3 ft+ 2.25 ft= 5.25 ft
We already know that 1 ft= 12 in.
5.25 ft* (12in/ 1 ft)= 63 in.
The total distance the two children crawled together is 63 in~
