Lets x = width
length = 3x

A = length times width
A = x * 3x
192 = 3x^2
192/3 = x^2
64 = x^2
8 = x

so width = 8
length = 3x = 3(8) = 24

P = 2(L + W)
P = 2(24 + 8)
P = 2(32)
P = 64

answer
P = 64 feet

Answer: 64 feet.

Explanation:
Perimeter formula: 2l + 2w
Area formula: l•w
Length = 3w
Area = 192 ft $^{2}$
192 = (3w) • w
192 = 3 $w^{2}$
192 ÷ 3 = 3 $w^{2}$ ÷ 3
64 = $w^{2}$
$\sqrt{64}$ = $\sqrt{ w^{2} }$
8 = w

Width = 8
Length = 3(8) = 24
Perimeter = 2(24) + 2(8) = 64 feet.

In a semiconductor manufacturing process, three wafers from a lot are tested. Each wafer is classified as pass or fail. Assume t

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

$P(X = 0) = 0.027$

$P(X = 1) = 0.189$

$P(X = 2) = 0.441$

$P(X = 3)= 0.343$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability mass function P(X = x) is the probability that X happens x times.

When n trials happen, for each $x \leq n$ , the probability mass function is given by:

$P(X = x) = pe_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which p is the probability that the event happens.

$pe_{n,x},$ is the permutation of n elements with x repetitions(when there are multiple events happening(like one passes and two not passing)). It can be calculated by the following formula:

$pe_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!}$

The sum of all P(X=x) must be 1.

In this problem

We have 3 trials, so $n = 3$

The probability that a wafer pass a test is 0.7, so $p = 0.7$

Determine the probability mass function of the number of wafers from a lot that pass the test.

$P(X = 0) = (0.7)^{0}.(0.3)^{3} = 0.027$

$P(X = 1) = pe_{3,1}.(0.7).(0.3)^{2} = 0.189$

$P(X = 2) = pe_{3,2}.(0.7)^{2}.(0.3) = 0.441$

$P(X = 3) = (0.7)^{3} = 0.343$

An average person in the country needs 2,450 kilocalories(kcal) / day of food to meet their full nutritional needs. The average

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.057 ha

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Kilocalories needed for a person per day = 2450

Kilocalories produced per hectare = 15737000

Process

1.- Calculate the number of kcal needed per a person for a year

2450 kcal ----------------- 1 day

x ----------------- 365 days

x = (365 x 2450) / 1

x = 894250 kcal

2.- Calculate the amount of land needed

15737000 kcal ------------- 1 ha

894250 kcal ------------ x

x = (894250 x 1) / 15737000

x = 0.057 ha

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to substitute... 0, 5, & 10, & 3

y = 2x + 3

y = 2(0) + 3

y = 0 + 3

y = 3

(0,3)

y = 2x + 3

y = 2(5) + 3

y = 10 + 3

y = 13

(5,13)

y = 2x + 3

y = 2(10) + 3

y = 20 + 3

y = 23

(10,23)

y = 2x + 3

y = 2(3) + 3

y = 6 + 3

y = 9

a line with slope 3 passes through point (0,10). What is the y-coordinate of the point on the line with x-coordinate 2

skad [1K]

The y-coordinate is 16

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that a line with slope 3 passes through point (0, 10)

To find the y-coordinate of the point on the line with x-coordinate 2

Which means the point is (2, y)

Let us find the required y co-ordinate using slope formula

<em><u>The slope of line is given as:</u></em>

For a line containing points $(x_1 , y_1)$ and $(x_2 , y_2)$ is given as:

$\text {slope}=m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$\text {Here } x_{1}=0 ; y_{1}=10 ; x_{2}=2 ; y_{2}=y$

Given that slope "m" = 3

Substituting the values we get,

$\begin{array}{l}{3=\frac{y-10}{2-0}} \\\\ {3=\frac{y-10}{2}} \\\\ {6=y-10} \\\\ {y=10+6=16}\end{array}$

Thus the y-coordinate is 16
