680/17=40
the length= 40
the width=17
17+17+40+40=114

Start by finding the length of the deck.

Area of a rectangle is given by A=length*width.

Let's plug in the information that we know so far,

680 = length*17

solving for length, dividing by 17,

40 = length

Now that we know both dimensions of the rectangular deck,
let's calculate the perimeter,

P = 2length + 2width

P = 2(40) + 2(17)

P = 114

Hope that helps!

The formula for the confidence interval is given by

Sample mean + z*[σ/√n], and
Sample mean - z*[σ/√n]

We have:
Sample mean = 23.95
n = 40
σ = 2.55
z* for 99% confidence = 2.58

Substitute these values into the formula, we have

23.95 + (2.58)(2.55÷√40) = 24.99
23.95 - (2.58)(2.55÷√40) = 22.91

So the lower interval is 22.91 and the highest interval is 24.99
