The length of Marshall's poster is 2 times its width. If the perimeter is 72 inches, what is the area of the poster?

Let's say that the sides of the poster are a and b. We know that the perimeter is 2a + 2b. We know that one side is 2 times width of the other side. So we can write it all as:

72 = 2a + 2 * 2a
72 = 2a + 4a
72 = 6a                / ÷ 6 (both sides)
a = 12

So one side is 12, the other one is 2 * 12 = 24 [inches]. It means that the area of the poster is 12 * 24 = 288 [square inches).

Each contestant in the Hunger Games must be trained to compete. Suppose that the time it takes to train a contestant has mean 5
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

P(X>250) = 0.7357

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we can gather the data:

μ = 5 days

σ = 4 days

n = 100

It will take more than 250 days to train the 100 contestants so,

time to train one person = 250/100 = 2.5 days.

x = 2.5 days

We will use the normal distribution formula to find the z-score and then use this z-value to find the probability from the normal distribution table.

Z = (x - μ)/(σ)

Using the values mentioned above,

Z = (2.5-5)/(4)

  = -0.625

Z = -0.63

So, using the normal distribution probability table we get the following probability at z = -0.63:

<u>P = 0.2643</u>

This is the probability that it will take less than 250 days to train all the contestants but we need the probability that it will take more than 250 days. So, using the total probability theorem:

P(X>250) = 1 - P(X<250)

               = 1 - 0.2643

P(X>250) = 0.7357

First, we must find out how many perfect squares are between 1 and 10.

1, 2, 4, 9,

Now, we put that quantity over 10.

4              2
