A rectangle’s width is 2 meters shorter than its length, l. Its area is 168 square meters. Which equation can be used to find th

e length of the rectangle?
l(l – 2) = 168
l(l + 2) = 168
2l 2 = 168

Answer:

l(l - 2) = 168

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width

Let l = length

Let A = area

w = l - 2

A = l * w

also, A = 168

equating the two values of A

l * w = 168

l * (l - 2) = 168

l^2 - 2l = 168

l(l - 2) = 168

Answer:

4×3=12

answer=12

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5 is the diameter so you don't use that but

if you want the area it is 12

if you want the perimeter it

will be 3+3+4+4

Which is 6+8=14

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to y = -1/2x – 3 that crosses the point

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

<em>y = 2x + 4 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 3

Slope of perpendicular line is "2"

( - 3 , - 2 )

y + 2 = 2( x + 3 )

<em>y = 2x + 4</em>

to find the area of a trapezoid dylan uses the formula A=1/2 (B1+B2)h the bases have lengths of 3.6 cm and 12 1/3 cm. the height

Artemon [7]

Answer:

It is irrational because it can not be represented as a fraction of two integers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$B_1 = 3.6$

$B_2 = 12\frac{1}{3}$

$H = \sqrt[3]5$

Required

Why is the area irrational?

First, we need to calculate the area

$Area = \frac{1}{2}(B_1 + B_2) * H$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}(3.6 + 12\frac{1}{3}) * \sqrt[3]5$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}(3.6 + \frac{37}{3}) * 17100$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{10.8+37}{3}) * 1.710$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{47.8}{3}) * 1.7100$

$Area = \frac{47.8}{6} * 1.7100$

$Area = \frac{47.8* 1.7100}{6}$

$Area = \frac{81.738}{6}$

$Area = 13.623$

A restaurant chain has two locations in a medium-sized town and, believing that it has oversaturated the market for its food, is

scoray [572]

Answer:

Yes, since the test statistic value is greater than the critical value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X_{1}=360000$ represent the mean for the downtown restaurant

$\bar X_{2}=340000$ represent the mean for the freeway restaurant

$s_{1}=50000$ represent the sample standard deviation for downtown

$s_{2}=40000$ represent the sample standard deviation for the freeway

$n_{1}=36$ sample size for the downtown restaurant

$n_{2}=36$ sample size for the freeway restaurant

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$\alpha=0.05$ significance level provided

Develop the null and alternative hypotheses for this study?

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean of revenue for downtown is higher than for freeway restaurant, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_{1}\leq \mu_{2}$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_{1} > \mu_{2}$

Since we don't know the population deviations for each group, for this case is better apply a t test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X_{1}-\bar X_{2}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{s^2_{2}}{n_{2}}}}$ (1)

t-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

Determine the critical value.

Based on the significance level $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2=0.025$ we can find the critical values from the t distribution dith degrees of freedom df=36+36-2=55+88-2=70, we are looking for values that accumulates 0.025 of the area on the right tail on the t distribution.

For this case the value is $t_{1-\alpha/2}=1.66$

Calculate the value of the test statistic for this hypothesis testing.

Since we have all the values we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$t=\frac{360000-340000}{\sqrt{\frac{50000^2}{36}+\frac{40000^2}{36}}}}=1.874$

What is the p-value for this hypothesis test?

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{70}>1.874)=0.033$

Based on the p-value, what is your conclusion?

Comparing the p value with the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and the true mean for the downtown revenue restaurant seems higher than the true mean revenue for the freeway restaurant.

The best option would be:

Yes, since the test statistic value is greater than the critical value.
