length = 68 cm and width = 10 cm

let w represent the width then length = 7w - 2

perimeter = 2(length + width) = 2(7w - 2 + w)= 2(8w - 2) = 16w -4

we are given perimeter = 156 thus

16w - 4 = 156 → (solve for w)

add 4 to both sides

16w = 156 + 4 = 160

divide both sides by 16

w = \frac{160}{16} = 10

thus width = 10 cm and length = (7 × 10) - 2 = 70 - 2 = 68 cm

An orange has 20 fewer calories
Andreyy89

Answer:

90 calories in a banana.

Step-by-step explanation:

O = B - 20     where  O is the number calories in an orange and B is a that in  banana.

Also 7B = 9O

From the above   O = 7B / 9 so substituting in the first equation:

7B / 9 = B - 20

7B = 9B - 180

2B = 180

B = 90.

A researcher is interested in the lengths of Salvelinus fontinalis (brook trout), which are known to be approximately Normally d
kompoz [17]

Answer:

c. 0.1151

Step-by-step explanation:

d) the probability that, on average, fish are larger than 86 centimeters in length.The area under part of a normal probability curve is  directly proportional to probability and the value is calculated as

z = (x₁−x) /σ

where z = propability of normal curve

x₁ = variate mean = 86cm

x = mean of 80cm

σ = standard deviation = 5cm

applying the formula,

z= (86-80)/5

z = 6/5 =1.2

Using a table of partial areas beneath the standardized normal curve (see Table of normal curve, a z-value of 1.2 corresponds to an area of 0.3849 between the mean value. but, because the standard curve has 0.5, then will minus 0.3849 from 0.5= 0.5 - 0.3849 = 0.1151

Thus the probability of a fish are larger than 86 centimeters in length is 0.1151

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-5, -2) and is parallel to y = 2/3x+1
rewona [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so the slope has to be the same because it’s parallel.

y=2/3x+1

slope=2/3

y=-2

x=-5

y=2/3x+ what

-2=-3 1/3 + what

1 1/3

hence, y=2/3x+4/3
