Answer:

9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A kite has four equal sides. If 5 inches is added to each side, the new perimeter will be 56 inches.

To find: The side length of the original kite.

Solution:

Let the original side of the kite be x inches.

As, it is given that a kite has 4 equal sides.

So,original perimeter of the kite is x+x+x+x=4x inches

Now, on adding 5 inches to each side, each side will become x+4

As per question

New perimeter of kite is 56 inches.

So, we get

x+5+x+5+x+5+x+5=56

4x+20=56

4x=56-20

4x=36

x=\frac{36}{4}

x=9 inches

Hence, the side length of the original kite is 9 inches each.

Step-by-step explanation:

x% confidence interval:

A confidence interval is built from a sample, has bounds a and b, and has a confidence level of x%. It means that we are x% confident that the population mean is between a and b.

Korolek [52]

Complete question :

Sam knows that his MP3 player has 40% of its battery life left and that the battery

charges by an additional 12 percentage points every 15 minutes. What percent of

the mp3's battery will be charged when Sam and his family leave? If mp3 was plugged in an hour before his family plan to leave.

Answer:

88%

Step-by-step explanation:

Time before leaving = 1hour

Current percentage = 40%

Charge rate = 12% every 15 minutes

Therefore,

Charge rate per minute :

12% / 15 = 0.8% per minute

Charge recieved after one hour (60 minutes) :

0.8% * 60

= 48%

Therefore, total charge after just before leaving is:

Current percentage + percentage received

40% + 48%

= 88%
