Answer:

Length of cheaper side = x = 29.21 ft

Length of expensive side = y = 24.31 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Length of cheaper side = x

Length of expensive side = y

Total Cost = 5(x + x) + 6(y+y) =

Total Cost = 5(2x) + 6(2y)

Total Cost  = 10x + 12y

we also know that

xy = 710ft square

so

y = 710 ft sq. / x

Putting this in total cost equation

Total Cost  = 10x + 12( 710 ft sq. / x )

f(x)  = 10x + ( 8,520 ft sq. / x )                 ( cost = f(x)

f'(x)  = 10 - ( 8,520 ft / x^2 )                 (x>0)

0 + ( 8,520 ft / x^2 ) = 10

8,520 ft / x^2 = 10

x^2 = 8,520 ft / 10

(x^2)^1/2 = (8,520 ft / 10)^1/2

x = 92.3 / 3.16

x = 29.21 ft

As given

xy = 710ft square

Putting value of x in above equation

29.21 y = 710

y = 710/29.21

y = 24.31 ft

We use the simple rules of statistics to accept the null hypothesis
68% of the data falls within 1 sd of the mean95% of the data falls within 2 sd of the mean 99% of the data falls within 3 sd of the mean
20 falls between the range of -56 to 56 (from the given 95% c.i.), hence we accept the null hypothesis; else, if the mean falls outside the range, we reject the null hypothesis.

An isosceles triangle with angles b and c having the same measure is shown. Find the measure of each angle whose degree measure
Anton [14]

Answer:

A = 114°, B = C = 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle relationships let you write two equations:

A+B+C = 180

B=C

Substituting the expressions for A, B, and C, you have ...

(x+7y+41) +(2y+13) +(6x+15) = 180

7x +9y +69 = 180

7x +9y = 111

And the second equation gives ...

(2y+13) = (6x+15)

6x -2y =-2

3x -y = -1

Now, we can add 9 times this second equation to the first to eliminate the y-variable.

(7x +9y) +9(3x -y) = (111) +9(-1)

34x = 102

x = 3

Then the angle measures are ..

B = C = 6·3+15 = 33

A = 180 -2·33 = 114

The angles in the triangle are (A, B, C) = (114°, 33°, 33°).
