Answer:

Width=6.5 cm

Length=12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Express the lengths and widths

Width=w

Length=l, but 1 cm less than twice the width=(2×w)-1=2 w-1

Step 2: Solve for the length and width

A=L×W

where;

A=area of the photograph

L=length of the photograph

W=width of the photograph

In our case;

A=91 cm²

L=2 w-1

W=w

91=(2 w-1)w

2 w²-w=91

2 w²-w-91=0, is a quadratic equation

solve for w

w={-1±√(-1²-4×2×-91)}/(2×2)

w=(-1±27)/4

w=(27-1)/4=6.5, or (-1-27)/4=-8

Take w=6.5 cm

L=(2×6.5)-1=13-1=12 cm

Width=6.5 cm

Length=12 cm

A quadratic has a squared term...causing the shape of a parabola, a U shape because both positive and negative x's squared end up being the same number. real world situation a quadratic could be used to track the height of a launched object.  An exponential has the variable in the exponent, causing the y to grow or decay increasingly quickly or increasing slowly real world example: banks use interest, over months or years.Each time the interest is applied, it is applied to a new and bigger total

   First, lookup a standard normal table and see what the z-score is for 0.025 (one half of 100% - 95%) to allow for equal sized tails. You should find that the z-score is 1.96. That means that 95% of the time, the value should be within 1.96 standard deviations of the mean. Now let's calculate the standard deviation. 800 is 800 - 1200 = -400 to the left of the mean of 1200. 1600 is 1600 - 1200 = 400 to the right of the mean of 1200. So we are an equal distance of 400 on both sides of the mean. And we know from the z-score of 1.96, that we're 1.96 standard deviations from the mean. So a little division will give us the standard deviation. Which is: 400 / 1.96 = 204.0816327
   So the standard deviation of the light bulbs is 204</span>

225/5 = 45
This means the parents gave her five dollars forty five times. If they gave her a five every time she saved one dollar, you just have to multiply the money she saved each time and the number of times she saved it, and you'll get the answer. 
Wendy saved $45 by herself
