The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:
A=2l+2w.
We know the area is 116, so we can plug that in for A. Now, we cant solve the equation yet because it still has two variables. Since we know the length is 5 feet greater than the width, we can rewrite l in terms of w. So here is what our new equation will look like:
116=2(w+5)+2w
Now lets solve:
116=2w+10+2w
106=4w
w=26.5 ft.
The width is 26.5 ft.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The  90 % confidence  interval  for the mean population is (11.176  ; 20.824 )

Rounding to at least two decimal places would give 11.18 , 20.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = x`= 16 miles per hour

standard deviation =s= 4.1 miles per hour

n= 4

\frac{s}{\sqrt n}  =  4.1/√4= 4.1/2= 2.05

1-α= 0.9

degrees of freedom =n-1=  df= 3

∈ ( estimator  t with 90 % and df= 3 from t - table ) 2.353

Using Students' t - test

x`±∈ * \frac{s}{\sqrt n}

Putting values

16 ± 2.353 * 2.05

= 16 + 4.82365

20.824  ;        11.176

The  90 % confidence  interval  for the mean population is (11.176  ; 20.824 )

Rounding to at least two decimal places would give 11.18 , 20.83
