Width= w
length= (3w-8)

2w+2(3w-8)= 96
2w + 6w -16= 96
8w= 112
8w/8= 112/8
w= 14

width= 14 feet
length= 34 feet

so the dimensions are 14x34 feet

If master chief has three and a half cookies, and the arbiter has five and three quarters of a cookie, how many cookies do they

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

$9\dfrac{1}{4}$

$4\dfrac{5}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The master chief has three and a half cookies i.e. $3\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{7}{2}$ numbers of cookies.

Again the arbiter has five and three quarters of a cookie i.e. $5\dfrac{3}{4} = \dfrac{23}{4}$ number of cookies.

Therefore, in total there are $(\dfrac{7}{2} +\dfrac{23}{4} ) = \dfrac{37}{4} = 9\dfrac{1}{4}$ numbers of cookies.

If we divide the total number of cookies in to equal parts and distribute to then then each of them will get $\dfrac{37}{4 \times 2} = \dfrac{37}{8} = 4\dfrac{5}{8}$ numbers of cookies. (Answer)

Answer:

J

-66

a1 = 2

n = 18

d = - 4

a18 = a1 + (n - 1) * d

a18 = 2 + (18 - 1)*(-4)

a18 = 2 + 17*-4

a18 = 2 - 68

a18 = -66

The weight of tigers follow a normal distribution with a mean of 220 kg and a SD of 30 kg. 1) If we randomly select a tiger, wha

mylen [45]

Answer:

0.89736

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using z score formula

Z score = x - μ/σ

x = raw score

μ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

Hence,

x = 258, μ = 220, σ = 30

Z = 258 - 220/30

=1.26667

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<258) = 0.89736

Therefore, the probability that his weights is less than 258 kg is 0.89736
