Answer:

41,44

Step-by-step explanation:

make the width x. lenght = x+3.

so, the perimeter will be x+x+3+x+x+3=170.

Simplifiyng, 4x+6=170

subtract six from both sides. Get 4x=164

Divide by 4. Get x=41

add three. Get length = 44

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

(1) B

(2) A

(3) C

Step-by-step explanation:

A random variable is a variable that denotes a set of all the possible outcomes of a random experiment. It is denotes by a single capital letter such as X or Y.

There are two types of random variables.

Discrete random variable: These type of random variable takes finite number of values, such as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... For example, number of girl child in a neighborhood.
Continuous random variable: These type of random variables takes infinite number of possible values. For example, the height, weight.

(1)

Exact weight of quarters now in circulation in the United States.

The variable weight is a continuous variable.

Thus, the exact weight of quarters now in circulation in the United States is a continuous random variable.

(2)

Shoe sizes of humans.

The shoe size of a person are discrete and finite values.

Thus, the shoe sizes of humans are discrete random variables.

(3)

Political party affiliations of adults in the United States.

This variable is not a quantitative variable.

It is a qualitative variable.

Thus, the political party affiliations of adults in the United States is no random variable.

Answer:

Interest rate is 5.25% a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

r = (1/54)((22252.5/18000) - 1) = 0.004375

r = 0.004375

Convert decimal to percentage

R = 0.004375 * 100 = 0.4375%/month

Calculate annual rate

0.4375%/month × 12 months/year = 5.25% per year.

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The perimeter of the base of the birdhouse is 36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

Chase is building a birdhouse in the shape of a regular polygon. He knows that the measure of the interior angle is twice the measure of the exterior angle and the length of a diagonal that passes through the center is 12. What is the perimeter of the base of the birdhouse?

step 1

Find the measure of the interior angle

Let

x ---> the measure of the interior angle

y ---> the measure of the exterior angle

Remember that

the sum of the interior and exterior angle in any polygon is equal to 180 degrees

$x+y=180^o$ ----> equation A
