Area of triangle = 24cm
Area of rectangle = 120
therefore, w x 12 = 120
w = 10

Answer:

10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the area of the rectangle is 5times the area of the triangle, let us first of all find the area of the triangle.

From the question, we obtained the following information:

h = 8cm

b =6cm

Area of triangle = 1/2 x b x h

Area of triangle = 1/2 x 6 x 8

Area of triangle = 24cm^2

But,

Are of the rectangle = 5times the area of triangle i.e

Area of rectangle = 5 x 24 = 120cm^2

Area of rectangle = L x w

L = 12cm

Area of rectangle = 120cm^2

W =?

120 = 12 x w

Divide both side by 12

W = 120 /12 = 10cm

Someone drove 20 miles in 24 minutes at this rate how many miles did they drive in 6 minutes
nikklg [1K]
Distance = rate * time (I will abbreviate as d = rt)
d = rt, so r = d/t 
r = 20mi/24min
= 0.833333 mi/min.

d = rt again for the new time
d = 0.8333333 mi/min * 6 min = 5 miles

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

the guarantee period should be less than 136010 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Let consider Y to be the life of a car engine

with a mean μ = 170000

and a standard deviation σ = 16500

The objective is to determine what should be the guarantee period T if the company wants less than 2% of the engines to fail.

i.e

P(Y < T ) < 0.02

For the variable of z ; we have:

z = \dfrac{x - \mu }{\sigma}

z = \dfrac{x - 170000 }{16500}

Now;

P(Y < T ) = P( Z < \dfrac{T- 170000}{16500})

P( Z < \dfrac{T- 170000}{16500})< 0.02

From Z table ;

At P(Z < -2.06) ≅ 0.0197  which is close to 0.02

\dfrac{T- 170000}{16500}

{T- 170000}

{T- 170000}< - 33990

{T}< - 33990+ 170000

{T}

Thus; the guarantee period should be less than 136010 miles
