Find the dimensions of the rectangle

Mathematics
1 answer:
hoa [83]3 years ago
7 0
(a) The sum of length and width is half the perimeter, so the breadth in terms of length (x) in cm will be
.. breadth = 34 -x


(b) Then the expression for the area (in cm^2) is
.. area = length*breadth
.. 253 = (x)(34 -x)
.. x^2 -34x +253 = 0 . . . . . subtract the right side, eliminate parentheses
.. (x -11)(x -23) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
.. x = 11 or 23

The dimensions of the rectangle are 11 cm by 23 cm.

Find the equation of the line through the point (-2,-2) that is perpendicular to the line y=2x-1
Lerok [7]

A line perpendicular to y = 2x - 1 must have the slope -1/2 (negative reciprocal of 2).


Thus, the eq'n of the new line is y+2 = (-1/2)(x+2).

What is the probability that in a randomly selected game, the first goal is scored in less than 4 minutes?
kogti [31]

Based on the characteristics of the distribution, the probability that the first goal is scored in less than 4 minutes is 0.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

For us to be able to calculate the probability that the first goal is scored in less than 4 minutes, the distribution needs to satisfy the requirements of the Central Limit Theorem(CLT).

Based on the fact that the distribution here is extremely right skewed, then it does not satisfy the requirements of CLT so the probability is 0.

First part of question:

The distribution of the time it takes for the first goal to be scored in a hockey game is known to be extremely right skewed with population mean 12 minutes and population standard deviation 8 minutes.

X = 59, y = 44

2x + 18 + x - 15 = 180
3x + 3 = 180
3x = 177
x = 59

x - 15 = y
59 - 15 = y
44 = y
