Answer:

  8 by 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is 1.5w. The perimeter is 4 more than 3 times this, so is (3(1.5w) +4) = 4.5w+4

The perimeter is given by the formula ...

  P = 2(length + width)

Filling in the given values for the variables, we have ...

  4.5w +4 = 2(w +1.5w)

  4 = 0.5w . . . . . . subtract 4.5w and collect terms

  8 = w . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

  length = 1.5×8 = 12

The rectangle is 8 units wide and 12 units long. The perimeter is 40 units.

An automobile manufacturer would like to know what proportion of its customers are not satisfied with the service provided by th
butalik [34]

Answer:

a) A sample size of 5615 is needed.

b) 0.012

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

99.5% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.005, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.005}{2} = 0.9975, so Z = 2.81.

(a) Past studies suggest that this proportion will be about 0.2. Find the sample size needed if the margin of the error of the confidence interval is to be about 0.015.

This is n for which M = 0.015.

We have that \pi = 0.2

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.015 = 2.81\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{n}}

0.015\sqrt{n} = 2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.015}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.015})^{2}

n = 5615

A sample size of 5615 is needed.

(b) Using the sample size above, when the sample is actually contacted, 12% of the sample say they are not satisfied. What is the margin of the error of the confidence interval?

Now \pi = 0.12, n = 5615.

We have to find M.

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

M = 2.81\sqrt{\frac{0.12*0.88}{5615}}

M = 0.012

What are the roots of the quadratic equation below 3x2+15x-5=0
fomenos

Answer:

<h2>A</h2><h2 />

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2+15x-5=0\\a = 3\\b = 15\\c = -5\\ x = -b\±\frac{\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} \\x = -(15)\±\frac{\sqrt{15^{2} -4(3)(-5)} }{2(3)} \\x = -15 \±\frac{\sqrt{225+60} }{6} \\x = -15\±\frac{\sqrt{285} }{6} = A
