Answer:

Length: 84 ft

Width: 56 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define some variables first.

Call the length l and width w.

We know that w = 2/3l. Therefore, we can express w in terms of l with this expression.

Now, let's set up an equation. The flower garden is rectangular, and 280 feet of fencing are used to enclose the garden. This represents perimeter.

Remember the formula for perimeter of a rectangle: 2l + 2w

Let's substitute 2/3l for w:

2l + 2*2/3l = P

2l + 4/3l = 280

2 4/3l = 280

10/3l = 280

l = 84

Now, we know that the length is equal to 84 feet. We can multiply 84 feet by 2/3 to find the width.

84*2/3 = 56

Length: 84 ft

Width: 56 ft

Let's plug these values into the formula and see if they give us the correct perimeter:

2l + 2w = P

2*84 + 2*56 = P

168 + 112

= 280 feet

These are the correct dimensions!  

Hope this helps! You can reach out to me if you have further questions or concerns! :)

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

C) x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When two segments intersect in a circle like so, the product of the two parts of one segment will be equal to the product of the two parts of the other segment.

So,<em> 3 * 6 = x * 2</em>

Multiply: 18 = x * 2

Divide: x = 9

Which of the following is the estimated amount of salt that will dissolve at 47 degrees?
Nina [5.8K]

Ths solubility curve can be used to obtain the amount of salt dissolved (solubility).

<h3>What is the solubility curve?</h3>

The solubility curve is a plot of the solubility of a substance against the temperature. It serves the purpose of being used to show the solubility of a susbtance at different temperatures. This question is incomplete hence we can not be able to deduce the solubility of the salt at this temperature.

If the solubility curve has been ploted, then we can be able to estimate the solubility of the salt from the graph.

What sign of a null hypothesis must always include?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Option d - Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : What sign of a null hypothesis must always include?

Solution :

The Null hypothesis is defined as a statement about the population that either is believed to be true or is used to put forth an argument unless it can be shown to be incorrect beyond a reasonable doubt.

The Null hypothesis represent by H_o

H_o always has a symbol with an equal in it.

Therefore, Option d is correct.

Equality sign of a null hypothesis must always include.
