D is answer.
Perimeter is 2x +3x +2x + 3x = 10x where x is unknown factor of distance.
So P = 10x
Velocity is 12 km/hr = .2 km/min
P =1.6 Km = 10x
x= .16 Km 3x = .48 km, 2x=.32 km
Area = .48 X .32 Km^2
= 153600 m^2

153,600 m^2

From the information given we can make 2 equations:
l=3/2b (l=length, b=breadth) {we know that the ratio of length to breadth is 3:2, meaning that the length is 3/2 longer than the breadth}
2l+2b=p (p=perimeter) {This is from the equation for perimeter of a rectangle}

To use these equations, we need to find the perimeter of the rectangle, which we can do by using the speed and time given here. Looking at the units in the problem we can see that they do not match (hr and min) so we need to do a conversion. The easiest way to convert this is to change minutes into hours, which can be done by dividing by 60.
8min/60=2/15 hours {math simplified here, when I divide by 60 what I am really doing is multiplying by 1 hour and dividing by 60 minutes}

Now that our units match, we can find the perimeter. This can be done by setting the speed equal to some distance over the amount of time it took.
12km/hr= p /(2/15hr)
p=1.6 km

Now that we have the perimeter, we can find the length and breadth. First, it is important to notice that the answer is supposed to be in m, not km, so that can be changed first.
p=1.6km=1600 m { to change from km to m multiply by 1000, because there are 1000 m in a km}

Now I will put this into the second equation giving us 2 equations with the same 2 variables.
l=3/2b
2l+2b=1600

These two can be solved together because the first equation already has l isolated. By taking the value of l from the first equation (3/2b) and substituting it into the second equation b can be found.
2(3/2b)+2b=1600
3b+2b=1600
5b=1600
b=320 m

This can then be substituted back into one of the original 2 equations to find l.
l=3/2(320)
l=480 m

Finally, both of these values can be put into the area equation for a rectangle (area=length*breadth).
480m*320m=153,600 m^2

A catering company provides packages for weddings and for showers. The cost per person for small groups
Tomtit [17]

Using the <em>normal distribution and the central limit theorem</em>, it is found that the probability the mean cost of the weddings is more than the mean cost of the showers is of 0.9665.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

In a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.
  • By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.
  • When two variables are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means, while the standard error is the square root of the sum of the variances.

<h3>What is the mean and the standard error of the distribution of differences?</h3>

For each sample, they are given by:

\mu_W = 82.3, s_W = \frac{18.2}{\sqrt{9}} = 6.0667

\mu_S = 65, s_S = \frac{17.73}{\sqrt{6}} = 7.2382

For the distribution of differences, we have that:

\mu = \mu_W - \mu_S = 82.3 - 65 = 17.3

s = \sqrt{s_W^2 + s_S^2} = \sqrt{6.0667^2 + 7.2382^2} = 9.4444

The probability the mean cost of the weddings is more than the mean cost of the showers is P(X > 0), that is, <u>one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0</u>, hence:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{0 - 17.3}{9.4444}

Z = -1.83

Z = -1.83 has a p-value of 0.0335.

1 - 0.0335 = 0.9665.

B - (- 7) =-1<br> what is b?
irina1246 [14]

B-(-7)= -1

First negative multiply by negative is POSITIVE.

So: B+7= -1

Subtract 7 from both sides

B= -7-1

B= -8.

Answer: -8.

To Check Answer: Plug in the variable of B in the original equation.

So: -8-(-7)= -1

-8+7= -1

-1= -1

If the Solution works out the answer is right.

A bag contains three marbles, eight blue marbles and nine red marbles. If the marbles are picked at random, what is the probabil
Phoenix [80]

The probability of obtaining two blue marbles without replacement is equal to 0.15.

We are given that:

The number of yellow marbles = 3

Number of red marbles = 9

Number of Blue marbles = 8

Total marbles = 3 + 9 + 8

Total marbles = 20

Now, we have to calculate the probability of obtaining two blue marbles without replacement.

The probability will be:

P( obtaining two blue marbles without replacement )  = 8 / 20 × 7 / 19

P( obtaining two blue marbles without replacement )  = 56 / 380

P( obtaining two blue marbles without replacement )  = 0.15

Therefore, the probability of obtaining two blue marbles without replacement is equal to 0.15.
