If the length of a rectangle is 5 m more than its width find the values of length and width if the area of a rectangle is 500 m²

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Length of the rectangle =25

width of the rectangle = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Let 'x' be the width of the rectangle

Given that the length of a rectangle is 5 m more than its width

Given that Area of the rectangle = 500m²

length of a rectangle = x +5

width of a rectangle = x

Step(ii):-

Area of the rectangle = length × width

500 = x ( x+5)

x² + 5 x = 500

⇒ x² + 5 x - 500 =0

⇒ x² +25x - 20 x - 500 =0

⇒ x( x+25) -20(x+25) =0

⇒ (x-20)(x+25) =0

⇒ x =20 and x=-25

we can choose x =20

Step(iii):-

Length of the rectangle = x +5 = 20 +5 =25

width of the rectangle = 20

Final answer:-

Length of the rectangle =25

width of the rectangle = 20

Describe several real world situations can be modeled by equations of the form Y equals MX plus be or Y equals MX explain how th

lara [203]

The linear equation represents y = mx + b describes several real world situations such as

Relation between printer and ink cartridges,

Relationship between number of songs and how much is left on the card.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equations y = mx + b.

m is your rate of change.

b is your constant. This is the initial value of y. The value of y when x is 0.

Finally, y is the thing that depends on x.

Oh right, examples:

I buy a printer for $100 and the ink cartridges cost $25 each. The relationship between ink cartridges and total cost.

total cost = 25(cartridges I buy) + 100 or y = 25x + 100

I get a $100 iTunes gift card for my birthday and then start buying $1 songs. The relationship between the number of songs I buy and how much is left on the card

amount left on card = -$1(songs bought) + 100 or y = -x +100

A manufacturer must test that his bolts are 4.00 cm long when they come off the assembly line. He must recalibrate his machines

storchak [24]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is $H_o: \mu = 4$ .

The alternate hypothesis is $H_a: \mu \neq 4$

The pvalue of the test is 0.0182 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer must test that his bolts are 4.00 cm long when they come off the assembly line.

This means that the null hypothesis is that they are 4.00 cm long, that is:

$H_o: \mu = 4$

At the alternate hypothesis we test if it is different. So

$H_a: \mu \neq 4$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

4 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 4$

After sampling 196 randomly selected bolts off the assembly line, he calculates the sample mean to be 4.14 cm.

This means that $n = 196, X = 4.14$

He knows that the population standard deviation is 0.83 cm.

This means that $\sigma = 0.83$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{4.14 - 4}{\frac{0.83}{\sqrt{196}}}$

$z = 2.36$

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability that the sample mean is different by at least 4.14 - 4 = 0.14 from the target value, which is P(|z| > 2.36), which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of z = -2.36.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.36 has a pvalue of 0.0091

2*0.0091 = 0.0182

The pvalue of the test is 0.0182 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines.

Someone help i need an answer

soldi70 [24.7K]

Remember that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

$2w + 2l$

$w$ is the width of the rectangle
$l$ is the length of the rectangle

Thus, in this case, you can see that we are adding two of the same monomials and two of another monomial. One monomial is $x + 15$ and another monomial is $x + 5$ . In this case, these monomials would fulfill the perimeter equation of a rectangle.

Applying this perimeter structure, we can find that this expression represents a perimeter equation of a rectangle with sides x + 15 and x + 5.
