Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = x

Length = x +2

Perimeter = 60 m

2*(length + width) = 60

2*(x + 2 + x) = 60

2*(2x + 2) = 60

    2x + 2 = 60/2

    2x + 2 = 30

          2x = 30-2

          2x = 28

           x = 28/2

          x = 14

Width = 14 m

Length = 14+ 2 = 16 m

Answer: The width is 14m

Step-by-step explanation: The question has provided the perimeter as 60. The available clues are such that the length measures 2m more than it's width. This means whatever is the width of the rectangle, the length shall be equal to plus 2. Hence, if the width is W, the length is W + 2.

So we have,

Perimeter = 60

Length = W + 2 and

Width = W

Already the perimeter is given as

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

We can now express the perimeter as follows;

60 = 2(W + 2 + W)

60 = 2(2 + 2W)

By cross multiplication we now have

60/2 = 2 + 2W

30 = 2 + 2W

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation

28 = 2W

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

14 = W.

Remember that the length is given as W + 2, so the length becomes

14 + 2 = 16

Therefore, the width equals 14 m.

Find (F/g)(x)<br> F(x) = sqrt x^2-1<br> g(x) sqrt x-1
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Option A. √(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

f(x) = √(x² – 1)

g(x) = √(x – 1)

(f/g) (x) =..?

(x² – 1) => difference of two square

(x² – 1) => (x – 1)(x + 1)

f(x) = √(x² – 1)

f(x) = √(x – 1)(x + 1)

(f/g) (x) = f(x) /g(x)

f(x) = √(x – 1)(x + 1)

g(x) = √(x – 1)

(f/g) (x) = √(x – 1)(x + 1) / √(x – 1)

(f/g) (x) = √[(x – 1)(x + 1) / (x – 1)]

(f/g) (x) = √(x + 1)

In the book Business Research Methods, Donald R. Cooper and C. William Emory (1995) discuss a manager who wishes to compare the
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Null hypothesis is: U1 - U2 ≤ 0

Alternative hypothesis is U1 - U2 > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves a comparison of the two types of training given to the salespeople. The requirement is to set up the hypothesis that type A training leads to higher mean weakly sales compared to type B training.

Let U1 = mean sales by type A trainees

Let U2 = mean sales by type B trainees

Therefore, the null hypothesis (H0) is: U1 - U2 ≤ 0

This implies that type A training does not result in higher mean weekly sales than type B training.

The alternative hypothesis (H1) is: U1 - U2 > 0

This implies that type A training indeed results in higher mean weekly sales than type B training.
