<span>Given that x represents the width of the rectangle and that the length of the rectangle is three times longer than the width. Then the length is 3x. The perimeter of a rectangle is given by 2(length + width) = 2(3x + x) = 2(4x) = 8x. The perimeter of the rectangle is 16 feet. Therefore, the required equation is 8x = 16. </span>

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given points.
Ratling [72]

(\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad(\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-1})\\\\\\% slope = m\stackrel{slope}{m}\implies\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{\stackrel{y_2}{-1}-\stackrel{y1}{4}}}{\underset{run}{\underset{x_2}{4}-\underset{x_1}{(-1)}}}\implies \cfrac{-5}{4+1}\implies \cfrac{-5}{5}\implies -1

\begin{array}{|c|ll}\cline{1-1}\textit{point-slope form}\\\cline{1-1}\\y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\\cline{1-1}\end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{4}=\stackrel{m}{-1}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-1)}]\\\\\\y-4=-1(x+1)\implies y-4=-x-1\implies \blacktriangleright y = -x+3 \blacktriangleleft

Anyone? i need help asap plzzz i’ll mark you as brainlist and like it
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

x = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that for a triangle, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of its two remove interior angles (also see attached for reference).

in our case, the exterior angle is given as 105° and its two remote interior angles are x and 55°

therefore

105° = 55° + x

x = 105° - 55°

x = 50°

Factor the expression.
grigory [225]
Hey!

First, let's write the problem,
4r^2-64
Factor out the common term, which is 4,
=4\left(r^2-16\right)
Then, let's factor this part: r^2-16
We are going to factor it using the difference of squares rule.
=\left(r+4\right)\left(r-4\right)
Our final factored answer would be,
=4\left(r+4\right)\left(r-4\right)

Thanks!

Meteorologists in Texas want to increase the amount of rain delivered by thunderheads by seeding the clouds. Without seeding, th
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

<em>There is no significant difference in the amount of rain produced when seeding the clouds.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the amount of rain delivered by thunderheads follows a distribution close to a normal one, we can formulate a hypothesis z-test:

<u>Null Hypothesis </u>

\bf H_0: Average of the amount of rain delivered by thunderheads without seeding the clouds = 300 acrefeet.

<u>Alternative Hypothesis </u>

\bf H_a: Average of the amount of rain delivered by thunderheads by seeding the clouds > 300 acrefeet.

This is a right-tailed test.

Our z-statistic is  

\bf z=\frac{370.4-300}{300.1/\sqrt{30}}=1.2845

We now compare this value with the z-critical for a 0.05 significance level. This is a value \bf z^* such that the area under the Normal curve to the left of \bf z^* is less than or equal to 0.05

We can find this value with tables, calculators or spreadsheets.

<em>In Excel or OpenOffice Calc use the function </em>

<em>NORMSINV(0.95) </em>

an we obtain a value of  

\bf z^* = 1.645

Since 1.2845 is not greater than 1.645 we cannot reject the null, so the conclusion that can be drawn when the significance level is 0.05 is that there is no significant difference in the amount of rain produced when seeding the clouds.
