The area of a rectangle is <em>L x W</em>. We have to get the value of x first so that we can find the area of the rectangle.

To get the value of x
given:
<span>a. 12 & X
b. X-2 & 16 </span>
solution:
12x (x) = (8-2 ) 16
12x = 16x-32
32 = 16x-- 12x
<u>32 </u> = <u>4x</u>
4        4
8 = x

Checking:

a. 12 & X                                                          b. X-2 & 16
Area of a rectangle = L x W                            Area of a rectangle  = L x W
                                =12 x 8                                                             =  (8-2) 16
Area of a rectangle = 96                                                                  = 6 (16)
                                                                        Area of a rectangle  = 96

A toy baseball bat comes with 3 plastic balls. The balls are in a box that is a rectangular solid. The box is just big enough to
vodomira [7]

Answer:

31.4 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The box is just big enough to hold the 3 balls, so it must have a length 6 times the radius of each ball, a width 2 times the radius, and a height 2 times the radius.

The volume of the box is:

V = (6r)(2r)(2r)

V = 24r³

The volume of the 3 balls is:

V = 3 (4/3 π r³)

V = 4πr³

So the volume of the air is:

V = 24r³ − 4πr³

V = (24 − 4π) r³

Since r = 1.4 inches:

V = (24 − 4π) (1.4 in)³

V ≈ 31.4 in³

Solve 2(4 x + 3) &lt; 5 x + 21. { x | x &lt; 9} { x | x &gt; -5} { x | x &gt; -9} { x | x &lt; 5}
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

x <5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4 x + 3) < 5 x + 21

Distribute

8x +6 < 5x +21

Subtract 5x from each side

8x -5x +6 < 5x-5x+21

3x +6 < 21

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6 <21-6

3x <15

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 <15/3

x <5

Approximately 12.6% of all (untreated) Jonathan apples had bitter pit in a study conducted by the botanists Ratkowsky and Martin
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be a random variable that represents the first Jonathan apple chosen at random that has bitter pit.

a) P(X = n) = q(n-1)p, where q = 1 - p.

From the information given, probability if success, p = 12.6/100 = 0.126

b) for n = 3, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n = 3) = 0.096

For n = 5, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n = 5) = 0.074

For n = 12, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n = 12) = 0.8

c) For n ≥ 5, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is

P(n ≥ 5) = 0.58

d) the expected number of apples that must be examined to find the first one with bitter pit is the mean.

Mean = 1/p

Mean = 1/0.126 = 7.9

Approximately 8 apples
