Answer:

The length is 15 meters and the width is 9 meters.

Explanation:

If we set this up as an algebraic equation, the length, l, and the width, w, would be set up as <span>l=w+6</span>

Provided <span>A=l⋅w</span>, we can substitute l as <span>w+6</span> so that <span>A=<span>(w+6)</span>⋅w=<span>w2</span>+6w</span>

If your Area, A is <span>135<span>m2</span></span>. we plug it in so that <span>135=<span>w2</span>+6w</span>

Subtract 135 from both sides to get <span>0=<span>w2</span>+6w−135</span>. If we factor this we get <span><span>(w+15)</span><span>(w−9)</span>=0</span>, so <span>w=−15or9</span>. Since distance can't be negative, <span>w=9</span>

If <span>l=w+6</span>, <span>l=9+6=15</span>

So the width is 9 meters and the length is 15 meters.

Hope it helps!

The perimeter of the rectangle is 22 meters, and the perimeter of the triangle is 12 meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangl
lianna [129]

Answer:

Length:8 m

Width:3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

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

If the perimeter of a rectangle is 22 meters, and the perimeter of a right triangle is 12 meters (the sides of the triangle are half the length of the rectangle, the width of the rectangle, and the hypotenuse is 5 meters). How do you solve for L and W, the dimensions of the rectangle.

step 1

<em>Perimeter of rectangle</em>

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

P=2(L+W)

we have

P=22\ m

so

22=2(L+W)

Simplify

11=L+W -----> equation A

step 2

Perimeter of triangle

The perimeter of triangle is equal to

P=\frac{L}{2}+W+5

P=12\ m

so

12=\frac{L}{2}+W+5

Multiply by 2 both sides

24=L+2W+10

L+2W=14 ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (8,3)

see the attached figure

therefore

The dimensions of the rectangle are

Length:8 m

Width:3 m

he amount of time that a customer spends waiting at an airport check-in counter is a random variable with mean 8.3 minutes and s
sp2606 [1]

Complete question:

He amount of time that a customer spends waiting at an airport check-in counter is a random variable with mean 8.3 minutes and standard deviation 1.4 minutes. Suppose that a random sample of n equals 47 customers is observed. Find the probability that the average time waiting in line for these customers is

a) less than 8 minutes

b) between 8 and 9 minutes

c) less than 7.5 minutes

Answer:

a) 0.0708

b) 0.9291

c) 0.0000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

n = 47

u = 8.3 mins

s.d = 1.4 mins

a) Less than 8 minutes:

P(X

P(X' < 8) = P(Z< - 1.47)

Using the normal distribution table:

NORMSDIST(-1.47)

= 0.0708

b) between 8 and 9 minutes:

P(8< X' <9) =[\frac{8-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}< \frac{X'-u}{s.d/ \sqrt{n}} < \frac{9-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}]

= P(-1.47 <Z< 6.366)

= P( Z< 6.366) - P(Z< -1.47)

Using normal distribution table,

NORMSDIST(6.366)-NORMSDIST(-1.47)

0.9999 - 0.0708

= 0.9291

c) Less than 7.5 minutes:

P(X'<7.5) = P [Z< \frac{7.5-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}]

P(X' < 7.5) = P(Z< -3.92)

NORMSDIST (-3.92)

= 0.0000

The difference of sample means of two populations is 55.4, and the standard deviation of the difference of sample means is 28.1.
Anna [14]

Answer:

The difference of the two means is not significant, so the null hypothesis must be rejected.

Pls help! evaluate f(4) on this table
Kruka [31]

Answer:

37

Step-by-step explanation:

f(4) just means use 4 for x. The table has all the x's across the top (sometimes they are in columns instead) The f(x) in the second row is the output that goes with each x. When x is 4, the f(x) is 37.

All is one math sentence:

f(4) = 37

Use the discriminant to predict the nature of the solutions to the equation 4x-3x²=10. Then, solve the equation.
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Two imaginary solutions:

x₁= \frac{2}{3} -\frac{1}{3} i\sqrt{26}

x₂ = \frac{2}{3} +\frac{1}{3} i\sqrt{26}

Step-by-step explanation:

When we are given a quadratic equation of the form ax² +bx + c = 0, the discriminant is given by the formula b² - 4ac.

The discriminant gives us information on how the solutions of the equations will be.

  1. <u>If the discriminant is zero</u>, the equation will have only one solution and it will be real
  2. <u>If the discriminant is greater than zero</u>, then the equation will have two solutions and they both will be real.
  3. <u>If the discriminant is less than zero,</u> then the equation will have two imaginary solutions (in the complex numbers)

So now we will work with the equation given: 4x - 3x² = 10

First we will order the terms to make it look like a quadratic equation ax²+bx + c = 0

So:

4x - 3x² = 10

-3x² + 4x - 10 = 0 will be our equation

with this information we have that a = -3 b = 4 c = -10

And we will find the discriminant: b^{2} -4ac = 4^{2} -4(-3)(-10) = 16-120=-104

Therefore our discriminant is less than zero and we know<u> that our equation will have two solutions in the complex numbers. </u>

To proceed to solve the equation we will use the general formula

x₁= (-b+√b²-4ac)/2a

so x₁ = \frac{-4+\sqrt{-104} }{2(-3)} \\\frac{-4+\sqrt{-104} }{-6}\\\frac{-4+2\sqrt{-26} }{-6} \\\frac{-4+2i\sqrt{26} }{-6} \\\frac{2}{3} -\frac{1}{3} i\sqrt{26}

The second solution x₂ = (-b-√b²-4ac)/2a

so x₂=\frac{-4-\sqrt{-104} }{2(-3)} \\\frac{-4-\sqrt{-104} }{-6}\\\frac{-4-2\sqrt{-26} }{-6} \\\frac{-4-2i\sqrt{26} }{-6} \\\frac{2}{3} +\frac{1}{3} i\sqrt{26}

These are our two solutions in the imaginary numbers.
