Answer:

A(w)=50w-w^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the width of rectangular pen.

We have been given that a framer has 100 m of fencing to enclose a rectangular pen. This means that perimeter of pen is 100 meter.

Since the perimeter is 2 times the length and width of rectangle.

\text{Perimeter of rectangle}=2\text{ (Width+Length})

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

100=2(w\text{+Length})

\frac{100}{2}=\frac{2(w\text{+Length})}{2}

50=w\text{+Length}

50-w=w-w\text{+Length}

50-w=\text{Length}

\text{Area of rectangle}=\text{Width*Length}

Upon substituting our given values in area formula we will get,

\text{Area of rectangle}=w(50-w)

\text{Area of rectangle}=50w-w^2

Let us represent area in terms of width of rectangle as:

A(w)=50w-w^2

Therefore, the area of our given pen will be A(w)=50w-w^2.

A(w)=50w-w2 if the perimeter is 100, I plugged in possible values for the width...I used w=15 and length = 35 for a perimeter of 100. then I plugged these values in the possible equations until I found the correct one giving me an area of 525 (15x35) . I could not think of an easier way.

Answer:

The <em>p</em>-value is 0.809.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to perform a significance test for the standard deviation.

The hypothesis is defined as follows:

<em>H</em>₀: <em>σ</em>₀ = 4 vs. <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>σ</em>₀ ≤ 4

The information provided is:

<em>n</em> = 9

<em>s</em> = 3

Compute the Chi-square test statistic as follows:

\chi^{2}=\frac{(n-1)s^{2}}{\sigma_{0}^{2}}

     =\frac{(9-1)\cdot (3)^{2}}{(4)^{2}}\\\\=\frac{8\times 9}{16}\\\\=4.5

The test statistic value is 4.5.

The degrees of freedom is:

df = n - 1

   = 9 - 1

   = 8

Compute the <em>p</em>-value as follows:

p-value=P(\chi^{2}_{9}>4.5)=0.809

*Use a Chi-square table.

Thus, the <em>p</em>-value is 0.809.
