Answer:

length = 115 cm

width = 108 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 446 centimeters

LEt L be the length of the pool

The width of the pool is 7 centimeters less than the length of the pool.

width = length - 7

W= L-7

Given perimeter = 446

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length)+2(width)

446 = 2(L) + 2(W)                    we know W = L-7

446 = 2(L) + 2(L-7)    

446 = 2L + 2L - 14

Add 14 on both sides

460 = 4L

divide by 4 on both sides

L= 115

Length L= 115

Width W = L - 7 = 115 - 7= 108

What is (10y+6) (8y-6) ?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

y = 3/4 or y = -3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y:

(8 y - 6) (10 y + 6) = 0

Hint: | Find the roots of each term in the product separately.

Split into two equations:

8 y - 6 = 0 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Look at the first equation: Factor the left hand side.

Factor constant terms from the left hand side:

2 (4 y - 3) = 0 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides by 2:

4 y - 3 = 0 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left hand side.

Add 3 to both sides:

4 y = 3 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by 4:

y = 3/4 or 10 y + 6 = 0

Hint: | Look at the second equation: Factor the left hand side.

Factor constant terms from the left hand side:

y = 3/4 or 2 (5 y + 3) = 0

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides by 2:

y = 3/4 or 5 y + 3 = 0

Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left hand side.

Subtract 3 from both sides:

y = 3/4 or 5 y = -3

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by 5:

Answer: y = 3/4 or y = -3/5

Lockheed Martin, the defense contractor designs and build communication satellite systems to be used by the U.S. military. Becau
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

P(52

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-0.851

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

P(-0.851

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the time required to construct and test a particular component of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(60,9.4)  

Where \mu=60 and \sigma=9.4

We want to find this probability:

P(52

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Using this formula we got:

P(52

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-0.851

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

P(-0.851

Please help with 1-9<br> 43 points

Remark

I'll do two from each group, leaving you with 1. I just leave the answer for the one I don't do or a hint it it is long. That's more than we are instructed to do (which is three parts per posted question).

One

Two ratios form a proportion because they both equal the same thing when you reduce them to the point where the ratios are prime to each other.

3/4 = 12/16

3/4 can't be reduced any further. When both 12 and 16 are divided by 4, the result is 3/4

Two

<em><u>Formula</u></em>

Sale Price/Original Price = 3/4

<em><u>Solve</u></em>

Sale Price / 64 = 3/4           Multiply both sides by 64

Sale Price = (3/4)*64

Sale Price = 48

Three

682 Trillion atoms of hydrogen.

Four

<em><u>Formula</u></em>

rotations / 40 seconds = rotations / second

<em><u>Solve</u></em>

2000 / 40 seconds = rotations / 1 second    Just divide

50 rotations/1 second = rotations / second.

Five

<em><u>Formula</u></em>

Herd of cows / Total pounds of milk = 1 cow / pounds of milk

<em><u>Given</u></em>

Herd = 12

pounds total = 224998

<em><u>Solve</u></em>

12/224998 = 1 / x             Cross multiply

12x = 224998

x = 18750 pounds of milk for 1 cow.

Six

0.5 m in 1 second.

Seven

<em><u>Formula</u></em>

Pages / hour = pages / minute

pages / hour = 4.5

1 hour = 60 minutes.

<em><u>Solve</u></em>

4.5 / 1 hour. But 1 hour = 60 min

4.5 pages / 60 min = 0.075 pages per minute.

Note this is not a true proportion. You just have to know how it is done.

Eight

This is also not a true proportion. The best way to do this is called unit analysis.

\dfrac{18feet}{2seconds} * \dfrac{1 mile}{5280 feet}\dfrac{3600sec}{1hour}

Each set of units on the right will cancel with a set of units on the left until all that you area left with is miles / hour. Then just multiply the numerator numbers together and denominator numbers together.

numerator: 18 * 1 * 3600 = 64800

denominator: 2 * 5280 * 1 = 10560

Now divide the numerator by the denominator.

answer: numerator/denominator = 64800/10560 = 6.14 miles per hour.

Nine                                              

Note: there are 1760 yards in a mile.

1 gallon will take you 32000 yards or 18 miles. Do this the same way eight was done.
