1. Regroup terms
x(x+5)=104

2. Expand
x^2+5x=104

3. Move all terms to one side
x^2+5x-104=0

4. Factor x^2+5x-104
(x-8)(x+13)=0

5. Solve for x
x=8 or x=-13
Since x<0 is not possible in this case, x=8

6. Finding the dimensions
We know that one side has to be x+5, and now that we know x:
8+5=13
13*8=104

The dimensions are 13 and 8, have a nice day :D

In 1980 and again in 2010, a Gallup poll asked a random sample of 1000 US citizens people "Are you in favor of the death penalty
Digiron [165]

Answer:

H0: p(1980) = p(2010) ; H1 : P(1980) > P(2010)

0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sample size in both 1980 and 2010 = 1000 samples :

Proportion in favor :

P(1980) = 0.66

P(2010) = 0.64

To test the hypothesis :

Null hypothesis :

Proportion in favor are the same in both years

Null hypothesis = H0 = p(1980) = p(2010)

Alternative hypothesis :

Proportion in favor in 1980 is greater than that in 2010

Alternative hypothesis = H1 : P(1980) > P(2010)

The sample statistic :

P(1980) - p(2010)

0.66 - 0.64

= 0.02
