Answer:

The rectangle is 16*18

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is length * width and the perimeter is 2 times length * width

A = l*w

P = 2(l+w)

Replacing A and P

288 = l*w

68 = 2(l+w) => 34 = l+w => 34 - w = l

replacing l in the area

288 = (34 - w) w

w^2 - 34w + 288 = 0

(w - 16)(w - 18)

w = 16

w = 18

replacing in 34 - w = l

you get that when w = 16, l = 18 and when w = 18, l = 16

Using the online linear regression calculator :

The linear trend :

ŷ = 739.49X + 4876.43

Where x = year

With 2006 representing 1 ; and so on

Slope = m = 739.49

Intercept (c) = 4876.43

y = predicted variable

The quadratic model:

General form:

y = A + Bx + Cx²

y = 6755.98 - 388.24x + 125.30x²

The exponential model:

y = AB^x

y = 5428.98(1.09)^x

Is 8 the HCF of 32, 48 and 72?

Sergio [31]

Step $1$

Find the factors of each number

we know that

$32=2^{5} \\48=2^{4}*3\\72=2^{3}*3^{2}$

Step $2$

Find the greatest common factor (GCF)

the GCF is equal to----------> $2^{3}=8$

therefore

the answer is

The GCF is $8$

The ratio of the volume of soda in glass A to the volume of glass B is 8/3 to 7/2

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Total volume in the two glasses is 740 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ratio of the volume of soda in glass A to the volume of glass B = 8/3 : 7/2

Volume of soda in glass A = 320mL

To Find :

The total volume in the two glasses = ?

Solution:

Let the volume of soda in glass B be x

then

$\text{ratio of soda in glass A} \times \text{ the volume of soda in glass B} = \text{ratio of soda in glass B} \times \text{ the volume of soda in glass A}$

Substituting the values ,

$\frac{8}{3} \times x = \frac{7}{2} \times 320$

$\frac{8}{3} \times x = \frac{2240}{2}$

$\frac{8}{3} \times x = 1120$

$x = 1120 \times \frac{3}{8}$

$x = \frac{3360}{8}$

x = 420

Now total volume of soda in the two glasses

=> volume of soda in glass A + volume of soda in glass B

=> 320 + 420

=>740mL
