Answer:

Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the length of the rectangle be 'L'

and, width of the rectangle be 'W'

length=2*Width+3

L=(2W+3) feet\\\\

Area of the rectangle= 90 square feet

Area of a rectangle = Length*Width

90=(2W+3)*W\\\\2W^2+3W=90\\\\2W^2+3W-90=0\\\\

Using Factorization Method to solve quadratic equation:

2W^2-12W+15W-90=0

Taking common from the equation:

2W(W-12)+15(W-12)=90\\\\(W-12)(2W+15)=0\\\\W-12=0\\\\W=12 feet

OR

2W+15=0\\\\2W=-15\\\\W=-7.5 feet

The Width cannot be negative, therefore Width(W)=12 feet

Length=2*Width+3\\\\=(12*2)+3\\\\=24+3\\\\=27 feet

Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet

kozerog [31]

Answer: 49.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The physical plant at the main campus of a large state university recieves daily requests to replace florecent lightbulbs. The distribution of the number of daily requests is bell-shaped ( normal distribution ) and has a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 9.

i.e.  \mu=61 and \sigma=9

To find :  The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 34 and 61.

i.e. The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 34 and 34+3(9).

i.e. i.e. The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between \mu and \mu+3(\sigma). (1)

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, about 99.7% of the population lies within 3 standard deviations from the mean.

i.e. about 49.85% of the population lies below 3 standard deviations from mean and 49.85% of the population lies above 3 standard deviations from mean.

i.e.,The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between \mu and \mu+3(\sigma) = 49.85%

⇒ The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 34 and 61.= 49.85%

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The probability that the aircraft  is  overload = 0.9999

Yes , The pilot has to be take strict action .

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Given - Before every​ flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the aircraft. The aircraft can carry 37 ​passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 6,216 lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 6216/37 = 168 lb. Assume that weight of men are normally distributed with a mean of 182.7 lb and a standard deviation of 39.6.

To find - What is the probability that the aircraft is​ overloaded ?

         Should the pilot take any action to correct for an overloaded aircraft ?

Proof -

Given that,

Mean, μ = 182.7

Standard Deviation, σ = 39.6

Now,

Let X be the Weight of the men

Now,

Probability that the aircraft is loaded be

P(X > 168 ) = P(\frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} > \frac{168 - \mu}{\sigma} )

                 = P( z > \frac{168 - 182.7}{39.6} )

                 = P( z > -0.371)

                 = 1 - P ( z ≤ -0.371 )

                 = 1 - P( z > 0.371)

                 = 1 - 0.00010363

                 = 0.9999

⇒P(X > 168) = 0.9999

As the probability of weight overload = 0.9999

So, The pilot has to be take strict action .
