Let the width be w, then length = 2w - 1

Area = length times width = w(2w - 1) = 21.

Thus, 2w^2 - w = 21 or 2w^2 - w - 21 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation gives that w = 3.5.

Therefore, width is 3.5 ft and length is 2(3.5) - 1 = 6 ft.

In an experiment, there are n independent trials. For each trial, there are three outcomes, A, B, and C. For each trial, the pro
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

(B) No. A binomial probability model applies to only two outcomes per trial.

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial probability is the probability of having x sucesses on n repeated trials of an experiment that can only have two outcomes. This is why it is called the binomial probability.

Since in our problem there are three possible outcomes, the binomial probability cannot be used.

The correct answer is (B)

(B) No. A binomial probability model applies to only two outcomes per trial.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The margin of error for the 94% confidence interval is 0.6154.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population mean is:

CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error of this interval is:

MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 94% confidence level is, <em>z</em> = 1.88.

Compute the margin of error for the 94% confidence interval as follows:

MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

          =1.88\times\frac{3}{\sqrt{84}}\\\\=0.6154

Thus, the margin of error for the 94% confidence interval is 0.6154.

What is the value of a when we rewrite 8^x as a^-x/9​
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

a = \frac{1}{134217728}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8^x = a^{-x/9}

Required

Find a

Take log of both sides

log(8^x) = log(a^{-x/9})

Apply law of logarithm

x\ log(8)  = (-x/9) log(a)

Divide both sides by a

log(8)  = -\frac{1}{9} log(a)

Multiply both sides by -9

-9\ log(8)  = log(a)

Apply law of logarithm

log(8^{-9})  = log(a)

Cancel out log

8^{-9}  = a

Rewrite as:

a = 8^{-9}

Apply law of indices

a = \frac{1}{8^9}

a = \frac{1}{134217728}
