Answer: The base is 18.3ft

Sam wants to build a wooden deck on his patio, which is in the shape of a parallelogram. The area of the patio is 280 ft2. Find the base. Round your answer to the nearest foot. (height=5x)(base=6x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Area = 280ft^2

height = 5x

Base = 6x

The area of the parallelogram A can be written as;

Area = base × height

A = b×h

Substituting the values of Area, base and height.

280 = 5x × 6x

280 = 30x^2

x^2 = 280/30

x = √(280/30)

Since the base = 6x ;

Substituting the value of x.

Base = 6x = 6(√(280/30))

Base = 18.3ft

The base is 18.3ft

A toy maker claims his best product has an average lifespan of exactly 14 years. A skeptical quality control specialist asks for
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

interval = [17.3948 , 20.6052]

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

random sample (n) = 45

average product lifespan = 19 years

standard deviation = 4 years

confidence interval of 99 %  = ?

we know,

t* = qt(1.99/2 + 44 ) = qt(0.995,44)

t* = 2.692

so,

interval

x = 19 \pm t* \times (\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}})

x = 19 \pm 2.692 \times (\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{45}})

x = 19 \pm 2.692 \times 0.5963

x = 19 \pm 1.6052

interval = [19 - 1.6052 , 19 + 1.6052]

interval = [17.3948 , 20.6052]

COS Find the quotient when the polynomial expression is divided by a binomial Find the quotient ANSWER SOLUTION CHOICES X2+11x+
ryzh [129]

Answer:

x=−1 or x=−9

Step-by-step explanation:

x2+11x+10=x+1

Step 1: Subtract x+1 from both sides.

x2+11x+10−(x+1)=x+1−(x+1)

x2+10x+9=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(x+1)(x+9)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

x+1=0 or x+9=0

x=−1 or x=−9
