P = 2l + 2w
l = 2w

48 = 2(2w) + 2w
48 = 4w + 2w
48 = 6w
8 = w

l = 2w
l = 2(8)
l = 16

48 = 2(16) + 2(8)
48 = 32 + 16
48 = 48

Answer:
length = 16
width = 8

L = 2w
perimeter = 2l + 2w
P = 48
Plug in all the given
48 = 2(2w) + 2w
combine like terms
48 = 4w + 2w
48 = 6w
divide both sides by 6
8 = w
The width is 8

l = 2w
l = 2(8)
l = 16
The length is 16

Hope this helps

The difference of x and 18 is greater than or equal to -12<br><br>its a inequality question

slavikrds [6]

Writing the word problem as an equation you get:

x - 18 ≥ -12

Now to solve for x:

Add 18 to both sides of the inequality:

x ≥ -12 + 18

Simplify:

x ≥ 6

Consider a sample with data values of 27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24. Compute the 20th, 25th, 65th, and 75th percentiles. 20

densk [106]

Answer:

$P_{20} = 20$ --- 20th percentile

$P_{25} = 21.75$ --- 25th percentile

$P_{65} = 27.85$ --- 65th percentile

$P_{75} = 29.5$ --- 75th percentile

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24.

N = 8

First, arrange the data in ascending order:

Arranged data: 16, 21, 24, 24, 27, 28, 30, 33

Solving (a): The 20th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{20} = \frac{20 * 9}{100}$

$P_{20} = \frac{180}{100}$

$P_{20} = 1.8th\ item$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{20} = 1st\ Item +0.8(2nd\ Item - 1st\ Item)$

$P_{20} = 16 + 0.8*(21 - 16)$

$P_{20} = 16 + 0.8*5$

$P_{20} = 16 + 4$

$P_{20} = 20$

Solving (b): The 25th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{25} = \frac{25 * 9}{100}$

$P_{25} = \frac{225}{100}$

$P_{25} = 2.25\ th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{25} = 2nd\ item + 0.25(3rd\ item-2nd\ item)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.25(24-21)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.25(3)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.75$

$P_{25} = 21.75$

Solving (c): The 65th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{65} = \frac{65 * 9}{100}$

$P_{65} = \frac{585}{100}$

$P_{65} = 5.85\th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{65} = 5th + 0.85(6th - 5th)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85(28 - 27)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85(1)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85$

$P_{65} = 27.85$

Solving (d): The 75th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{75} = \frac{75 * 9}{100}$

$P_{75} = \frac{675}{100}$

$P_{75} = 6.75th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{75} = 6th + 0.75(7th - 6th)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 0.75(30- 28)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 0.75(2)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 1.5$

$P_{75} = 29.5$
