This is the concept of algebra, for us to calculate the area of the triangle we need the value of x. Therefore, we shall obtain this from the perimeter.

P=6x+4x+3x=18
13x=18
x=18/13
x=1.385
The length of the altitudes will be:
6x=6×1.385=8.31 
4x=4×1.385=5.54
3x=3×1.385=4.155
the area will be given by Heron's formual:
Area=√[p(p-a)(p-b)(p-c)]
p=(a+b+2)/2
=(8.31+5.54+4.155)/2
=9.0025
therefore:
A=√[9.00(9-8.31)(9-5.54)(9-4.155)
A=104.64 sq. units

Answer:

Area: 135 ft^2

Perimeter: 50 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

area:

take the rectanle so length 12 x 9 = 108 so that is the length of the rectangle and now we need to find that of the triangle left over

subract 18 - 12 = 6 so that is the base of the trianle and we know the side length is 9 so plus it in A = (9)(6)/2

A = 54/2

A = 27

add 27 + 108 to get the total area

135

perimeter:

18 + 9 + 11 + 12 = 50

At a university, 12% of students smoke. Calculate the expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this un
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

a) The expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this university is 16.8 smokers.

b) No, it is unlikely that smoking habits and waking up early to go to the gym on Saturday are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the expected numbers of smokers in a sample with size n=140 and proportion p=12%, we use the expected value of the binomial distribution:

E(x)=n\cdot p=140\cdot 0.12=16.8

The expected number of smokers in a random sample of 140 students from this university is 16.8 smokers.

If we take a sample at the opening of the gym, the sample is not expected to be representative of the population of the students. Most of the students that go to the gym usually have healthy habits, so the proportions of smokers is expected to be lower than the average of the university population.
