How do I set up this problem?

Hey there!

We know that perimeter is all the sides added up.

70= 2w+2L <== this is the basic equation

We know that the rectangles length is three times as long as it is wide.

So, you know that is is three times the length of the width. So, put 3 times w in as length and times that by two since there are two length sides, and keep width the same. 2w because there are two width sides. Then, solve.

70=2(3w)+2w

70= 6w+2w

70=8w

w=8.75

We can check this by plugging it in to our first equation and seeing if it works. First, we need to multiply 8.75 by 3 to get the value for length.

8.75*3= 26.25

2(26.25)+2(8.75)= 70 <=== it works!

So, the length is 26.25 cm and the width is 8.75 cm.

I hope this helps!

Answer: 0.8461

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the proportion of residents are against the increase of taxes to fund alternatives to drug addiction treatment.

As per given , we have p=0.40

A random sample is taken with size : n= 400

Expecting sample proportion : \hat{p}=\dfrac{150}{400}=0.375

Now , the probability that more than 150 of the residents surveyed will be against increasing taxes if a random sample of 400 residents are surveyed will be :

P(p>0.375)=P(\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}>\dfrac{0.375-0.40}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.40(0.60)}{400}}})

=P(z>\dfrac{0.375-0.40}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.40(0.60)}{400}}})\ \ [\because\ z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}]

=P(z>-1.02)=P(z-z)=P(Z

\approx0.8461  [By z-table]

Hence, the approximate probability that more than 150 of the residents surveyed will be against increasing taxes if a random sample of 400 residents are surveyed is 0.8461 .
