Answer:

B. P=l+w

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l represent length of rectangle and w represent width of rectangle.

We have been given four formulas for the perimeter of rectangle. We are asked to choose the formula that displays a common student error for finding the perimeter.

We know that perimeter of a polygon is sum of all sides of the polygon. We also know that rectangle is polygon having two sets of equal sides.

The perimeter, P, of rectangle will be sum of its all sides that is:

P=l+w+l+w

Combine like terms:

P=2l+2w

Factor out 2:

P=2(l+w)

Upon looking at our given choices, we can see that formula represented by option B displays a common student error for finding the perimeter.

Vinvika [58]
The volume of a cylinder is pi*height*radius^2 = pi*5*(14/2)^2 = 769.69 ft^3. To get the total gallons multiply 769.69 ft^3 by 7.5gal/ft^3 to get 5772.6765 gallons or 5773 gallons rounded to nearest whole number.

The side AB measures option 2. \sqrt{20}} units long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The coordinates of the given triangle ABC are A (4, 5), B (2, 1), and C (4, 1).

The sides of the triangle are AB, BC, and CA. We need to determine the length of AB.

To calculate the distance between two points, we use the formula d=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}.

where (x_{1},y_{1}) are the coordinates of the first point and (x_{2},y_{2}) are the coordinates of the second point.

Step 2:

For A (4, 5) and B (2, 1), (x_{1},y_{1}) = (4, 5) and (x_{2},y_{2}) = (2, 1). Substituting these values in the distance formula, we get

d=\sqrt{\left(2-4\right)^{2}+\left(1-5}\right)^{2}} = \sqrt{\left(2\right)^{2}+\left(4}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{20}}.

So the side AB measures \sqrt{20}} units long which is the second option.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

19.55\pm2.145

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the equation \bar x\pm z^*\sigma/\sqrt n, where \bar x=19.55, \sigma=6.33, n=41, and z^*=2.17. We obtain z^* from the z-score of a 0.97 confidence level.
