We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is twice the length, plus twice the width.
P = 2L + 2W
We also know that the perimeter is 156.
P = 156
Finally, we know that the width is 12 less than the length.
W = L - 12.
The next thing that we do is substitute the information that we have into the original equation:
P = 2L + 2W
156 = 2L + 2(L - 12)
From this point we start to solve
156 = 2L + 2L - 24 <---we multiplied the '2' through the parenthesis
156 + 24 = 2L + 2L - 24 + 24
180 = 2L + 2L <--- getting like terms on same sides
180 = 4L <---combining like terms
180/4 = 4L/4 <--- getting like terms on same sides
45 = L <---now we have a value for L
Now we take the known value for L and substitute it in to our equation for W
W = L - 12
W = 45 - 12
W = 33
So now we have Length = 45 and Width = 33.
Answer:
Probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 100 million dollars is 0.8413.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the mean income of firms in the industry for a year is 95 million dollars with a standard deviation of 5 million dollars. Also, incomes for the industry are distributed normally.
<em>Let X = incomes for the industry</em>
So, X ~ N(
)
Now, the z score probability distribution is given by;
Z = 
~ N(0,1)
where, 
= mean income of firms in the industry = 95 million dollars
= standard deviation = 5 million dollars
So, probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 100 million dollars is given by = P(X < 100 million dollars)
P(X < 100) = P( < 
) = P(Z < 1) = 0.8413 {using z table]
Therefore, probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 100 million dollars is 0.8413.
Answer:
4 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
8×21=168
168÷36(1 yard in inches)=4 with a remainder of 24
24/36 can both be divided by 12 so its now been reduced to 2/3
Y = 3x + 48 where x is your number of years. I got 48 by multiplying 4 and 12 since there are 12 inches in a foot. (:
