L = Length
W = Width

L x W = area
Length = 2w

Lets find the width by solving for w.
2w + w = 36 
3w = 36
3w/3 = 36 / 3 
w = 12

So
L = 2 x 12 = 24
W = 12
L X W = area
24 x 12 = 288 cm^2

A certain brand of flood lamps has a lifetime that is normally distributed with a mean of 3,750 hours and a standard deviation o
vesna_86 [32]
Given that mean=3750 hours and standard deviation is 300:
Then:
<span>a. The probability that a lamp will last for more than 4,000 hours?
P(x>4000)=1-P(x<4000)
but
P(x<4000)=P(z<Z)
where:
z=(x-</span>μ)/σ
z=(4000-3750)/300
z=0.833333
thus
P(x<4000)=P(z<0.8333)=0.7967
thus
P(x>4000)=1-0.7967=0.2033

<span>b.What is the probability that a lamp will last less than 3,000 hours?
P(x<3000)=P(z<Z)
Z=(3000-3750)/300
z=-2.5
thus
P(x<3000)=P(z<-2.5)=0.0062

c. </span><span>.What lifetime should the manufacturer advertise for these lamps in order that only 4% of the lamps will burn out before the advertised lifetime?
the life time will be found as follows:
let the value be x
the value of z corresponding to 0.04 is z=-2.65
thus
using the formula for z-score:
-2.65=(x-3750)/300
solving for x we get:
-750=x-3750
x=-750+3750
x=3000</span>

Find any 3 (x,y) pairs that are solutions for the equation 2x-5y=10 . Show your work
Alla [95]

Answer:

(0,-2), (5,0) and (10,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is 2x-5y=10.

Now we need to find 3 pairs of solutions in (x,y) form for the given equation.

As 2x-5y=10 is a linear equation so we are free to pick any number for x like x=0, 5, 10

Plug x=0 into 2x-5y=10, we get:

2(0)-5y=10

0-5y=10

-5y=10

y=\frac{10}{-5}

y=-2

Hence first solution is (0,-2)

We can repeat same process with x=5 and 10 to get the other solutions.

Hence final answer is (0,-2), (5,0) and (10,2).

Find the area of the regular polygon below and round your answer to the nearest tenth.
stira [4]
The 9-sided polygon will have a central angle between the vertex and the center of one side of 360°/(2*9) = 20°. Then the apothem is
  a = (6 in/2)*cot(20°) ≈ 8.242432 in
The perimeter is 9*6 in = 54 in, so the area is
  A = (1/2)Pa = (1/2)*(54 in)*(8.242432 in) ≈ 222.5 in²
