The perimeter of the rectangle is 48 feet. The length is 16 ft. What is the width?

Mathematics

is the length both sides already or just on one side?

because if the 16ft. is only on one side, and the sum of the both sides are 32ft, i think the width of the rectangle must be 16ft, which means 8ft from the first side and 8ft from the second side.

but if the 16ft. is the sum of both sides, which means 8ft from the first length and 8ft from the second length, then the answer for the width is 16ft, for each side of the width. 16 for the first width, and 16 for the second width.

is my explanation too complicated?? sorry hehe.

The level of significance is the a. same as the p-value. b. maximum allowable probability of Type I error. c. same as the confid

Temka [501]

Answer:

The level of significance is the

b. maximum allowable probability of Type I error.

Step-by-step explanation:

The significance level provides the maximum probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true. It is the same as a type I error (also known as false-positive). This error occurs when a researcher or investigator rejects a true null hypothesis that is supposed to be accepted. It is the opposite of a type II error (false-negative), which occurs when the researcher fails to reject a false null hypothesis.
