Let's first say that L=W+44

and then remember that perimeter is P=2L+2W

replace the L with W+44

we then get P=2(W+44)+2W, now I'll solve it

P=2W+88+2W
P=4W+88

substitute 288 for P

288=4W+88
200=4W
50=W

so now we now how wide the court is. add 44 to find the length which gives you L=94

as always plug the numbers back into your perimeter equation to ensure L and W are correct

Choose the ratio that you would use to convert 1.5 feet to miles. Remember
AleksandrR [38]

Answer: B, 1 mile / 5280 ft.

Step-by-step explanation: If you need to convert feet to miles the unit multiplier (ratio) that you use should have miles on top and feet on the bottom so that the feet cancel when you multiply, leaving miles as the unit. B is the only answer that has miles on top and feet on the bottom as well as the correct amounts (1 mile and 5280 ft).

In 2012, about 24% of high-school seniors reported binge drinking (defined as five or more drinks in a row in the past two weeks
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: (0.24 - 1.96*0.019, 0.24 + 1.96*0.019)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the confidence interval population proportion (p) is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z*\cdot SE

, where \hat{p} = sample proportion.

z* = Critical value (Two -tailed)

SE = standard error

Given : In 2012, about 24% of high-school seniors reported binge drinking (defined as five or more drinks in a row in the past two weeks), a substantial drop since the late 1990s.

\hat{p}=0.24

SE = 0.019

Significance level =\alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Two-tailed value corresponds for \alpha=0.05 :

z*=1.96   [Using z-table]

Now, the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of high-school seniors in the sample who would report binge drinking will be :-

0.24\pm (1.96)\cdot (0.019)=(0.24-1.96\times 0.019,\ 0.24+1.96\times 0.019)

Hence, the correct answer = (0.24 - 1.96*0.019, 0.24 + 1.96*0.019)
