Answer:

The value of x  = 3.

Length = 4 feet and Width = 5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the box = 2 ft

Length of the box = (3x-5) ft

Width of the box  = (2x-1) ft

Volume of the box = 40 cubic feet

Now, VOLUME OF CUBE  = LENGTH x WIDTH x HEIGHT

\implies 40 = 2 \times (3x-5) \times (2x-1)\\\implies 20 = 3x(2x-1)) -5 (2x-1) = 6x^2 - 3x -10x +5  = 6x^2 - 13x + 5\\\implies  6x^2 - 13x -15 = 0

Now, solving for the value of x, we get:

6x^2 -13 x - 15  = 6x^2 -18x + 5x - 15 = 0\\\implies6x(x-3) + 5(x-3) = 0\\\implies (x-3)(6x+5) = 0

⇒ Either x-3 = 0, or ( 6x+5) = 0

⇒ Either x  = 3, or x = -5/6

As x = SIDE OF A CUBE ,so it CANNOT be negative.

⇒x  = 3

So, length = (3x-5)  = 3(3) -5 = 9-5 = 4 units

Width = (2x-1) = 2(3) -1  = 5 units

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows an equilateral triangle (because all angles are congruent). All sides in equilateral triangle are congruent, so

4x-10=5x-22=3x+2

Solve the equation

4x-10=5x-22\\ \\4x-10-4x=5x-22-4x\\ \\-10=x-22\\ \\-10+22=x-22+22\\ \\12=x

Check this value:

4x-10=4\cdot 12-10=48-10=38\ units \\ \\5x-22=5\cdot 12-22=60-22=38\ units\\ \\3x+2=3\cdot 12+2=36+2=38\ units

Thus, x=12

Answer:

Hello your question has some missing part below is the missing part

The mean hours per week and standard deviations for middle management who had been with the organizations for approximately the same length of time were: Baltimore facility, Burlington facility Mean 52.5 Mean 39.7

Standard deviation 19.7 Standard Deviation 8.9Using this data, complete the following:

State your hypothesis and conduct a hypothesis testing using a significance of 0.10.

answer :  We will reject the Null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

μ1 = mean working hours for Baltimore facility  

μ2 = mean working hours  for Burlington facility  

Hence the Hypothesis are :

H0 : μ1 = μ2

Ha : μ1  > μ2

<em>Next:  Conduct a hypothesis testing </em>

we will apply Z - testing attached below is the hypothesis testing

n1 = 145 , X1 = 52.5 , δ1 = 19.7  ( Baltimore )

n2 = 128, X2 = 39.7 , δ2 = 8.9 ( Burlington )
