Find the dimensions of a rectangle whose width is 7 miles less than its length and whose areas is 78 square miles.

W = L - 7
WL = 78

(L-7)L = 78

L^2 - 7L - 78 = 0
Factorize: (L-13)(L+6) = 0

L = 13 or -6

A length cannot be negative, so the length must be 13 miles.
The width is 13-7 = 6 miles.

 please answer very sorry thats all the points i have left

In order for the mode to be 6, there must be more of them than any other number. In order for the mean to be 3.5, most of the distribution must lie at 3 or below to balance the large number of 6s. For the median to be 3, there must be as many scores at or above 3 as at or below 3. Thus, we choose to have most of the distribution with values 1, 2, 3 and only enough 6s to make that be the mode.

What step should you perform to bisect an angle drawn on tracing paper
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

• Suppose the angle is PQR where Q is the midpoint.  

• Keep the compass at angle vertex Q and adjust some wide setting (the width is not important).

• Without changing the compass, draw an arc across each leg of the angle

• Now keep the compasses on the point drawn on each leg, and draw an arc in the interior of the angle.

• Using a ruler, draw a line through the vertex to the point where the arcs cross

= 2/3 * 8
multiply numerators; multiply denominators

= (2*8)/(3*1)

= 16/3
convert to a mixed number

= 5 1/3 yards needed
