What is the area of the rectangle in square units and how can i explain my answer

The area of your rectangle will vary depending on the dimensions.  The area of any rectangle can be found with a simple equation...

Area = Length x Width    or    A = l x w

The answer to the area question will ALWAYS be in square units because when you multiply, you also multiply the units so, for example 2 inches x 2 inches = 4 inches^2.

Let's take a look at an example...  You have a rectangle with a length of 8 feet and a width of 4 feet.  What's the area?

Well... Area = Length x Width,  so

Area = 8 ft x 4 ft
Area = 32 ft^2

Easy as that!

Sav [38]

Answer:

10.630

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt(x_{2}  -x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} -y_{1})^{2}

\sqrt( 5-(-3)^{2} + (5- (-2)^{2}

(5 - ( - 3)^2 = 64

(5 - ( -2)^2 = 49

49 + 64

113

\sqrt113

10.630

The U.S. Bureau of Economic Statistics reports that the average annual salary in the metropolitan Boston area is $50,542. Suppos
xenn [34]

Answer:

(a) P(X > $57,000) = 0.0643

(b) P(X < $46,000) = 0.1423

(c) P(X > $40,000) = 0.0066

(d) P($45,000 < X < $54,000) = 0.6959

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that U.S. Bureau of Economic Statistics reports that the average annual salary in the metropolitan Boston area is $50,542.

Suppose annual salaries in the metropolitan Boston area are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $4,246.

<em>Let X = annual salaries in the metropolitan Boston area</em>

SO, X ~ Normal(\mu=$50,542,\sigma^{2} = $4,246^{2})

The z-score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

                      Z  =  \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = average annual salary in the Boston area = $50,542

            \sigma = standard deviation = $4,246

(a) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is more than $57,000 is given by = P(X > $57,000)

    P(X > $57,000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma } > \frac{57,000-50,542}{4,246 } ) = P(Z > 1.52) = 1 - P(Z \leq 1.52)

                                                                     = 1 - 0.93574 = <u>0.0643</u>

<em>The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.52 in the z table which gave an area of 0.93574</em>.

(b) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is less than $46,000 is given by = P(X < $46,000)

    P(X < $46,000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma } < \frac{46,000-50,542}{4,246 } ) = P(Z < -1.07) = 1 - P(Z \leq 1.07)

                                                                     = 1 - 0.85769 = <u>0.1423</u>

<em>The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.07 in the z table which gave an area of 0.85769</em>.

(c) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is more than $40,000 is given by = P(X > $40,000)

    P(X > $40,000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma } > \frac{40,000-50,542}{4,246 } ) = P(Z > -2.48) = P(Z < 2.48)

                                                                     = 1 - 0.99343 = <u>0.0066</u>

<em>The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.48 in the z table which gave an area of 0.99343</em>.

(d) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is between $45,000 and $54,000 is given by = P($45,000 < X < $54,000)

    P($45,000 < X < $54,000) = P(X < $54,000) - P(X \leq $45,000)

    P(X < $54,000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma } < \frac{54,000-50,542}{4,246 } ) = P(Z < 0.81) = 0.79103

    P(X \leq $45,000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma } \leq \frac{45,000-50,542}{4,246 } ) = P(Z \leq -1.31) = 1 - P(Z < 1.31)

                                                                      = 1 - 0.90490 = 0.0951

<em>The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.81 and x = 1.31 in the z table which gave an area of 0.79103 and 0.9049 respectively</em>.

Therefore, P($45,000 < X < $54,000) = 0.79103 - 0.0951 = <u>0.6959</u>

Write the following using algebraic notation, using the letter x for any unknown numbers:
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

\dfrac{x+7}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given statement is "I think of a number, add seven then divide by five".

Let the unknown number be x.

Now, add 7 to the number = x+7

If we divided them by 5, \dfrac{x+7}{5}.

So, the required algebraic notation is  \dfrac{x+7}{5}.
