Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Width is x.

Length is (x + 1).

Area = length*width

56 = x(x+1)

x² + x - 56 = 0

(x+8)(x-7)=0

x = - 8, or x = 7

"- 8" is impossible for width.

So, width x = 7

Length = (x+1) = 7+1 = 8

Fed [463]

Answer:

0.0444 = 4.44% probability that a part chosen at random (from the sample) was defective.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of a defective part:

0.04 of \frac{100}{180}, that is, coming from A.

0.05 of \frac{80}{180}, that is, coming from B. So

p = 0.04\frac{100}{180} + 0.05\frac{80}{180} = \frac{0.04*100 + 0.05*80}{180} = 0.0444

0.0444 = 4.44% probability that a part chosen at random (from the sample) was defective.

Math help !! :) thanks!
Ber [7]

X= (-7,12)

Y= (7,-9)

The distance between the x points is 14 units

we want a ratio of 3 to 4

for every 3 on one side there are 4 on the other for 7 total

6 to 8   = 14

so 6 on one side 8 on the other

so 6 units on the left starting at -7

-7 + 6 = -1


same with y

12 to -9 is 21 units

3 to 4 = 7

6 to 8 =14

9 to 12 = 21

so 9 unit from the top

12-9 = 3

(-1,3)

Choice A
