A golden rectangle is a rectangle whose length is approximately 1.6 times its width.the early greeks thought that a rectangle wi

th these dimensions was the most pleasing to the eye and examples of the golden rectangle are found in many early works of art. for​ example, the parthenon in athens contains many examples of golden rectangles. mike hallahan would like to plant a rectangular garden in the shape of a golden rectangle. if he has 7878 feet of fencing​ available, find the dimensions of the garden.

Mike has 78 feet of fencing available for his garden, this is the perimeter (P) of the rectangle:
Perimeter: P=78 feet

The formula of Perimeter is:
P=2(W+L), where W is the width and L is the length, then:

P=78→2(W+L)=78
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
2(W+L)/2=78/2
W+L=39

If the shape is of a golden rectangle, we know:
L=1.6W
Replacing this above:
W+1.6W=39
Adding similar terms:
2.6W=39
Solving for W
2.6W/2.6=39/2.6
W=15 feet

L=1.6W=1.6(15)→L=24 feet

Answer: T<span>he dimensions of the garden are: Width=15 feet and Length=24 feet. </span>

Answer:

y>5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

5y+3>-7y+13

5y+7y>13-3

12y/12>10/12

y>5/6

This is an inequality, which shows where the variable y does or does not exist

from this we can say

y: (-infinity,5/6) (5/6, infinity]

or, y does not exist from (-infinity,5/6)

and does exist from (5/6, infinity]

What is the constant of variation, k,
ValentinkaMS [17]
The K-constant variation is the factor of the increase-decrease relationship between the x-variable and y-variable which can be stated as y=k*x or x=y/k<span>. For example, if y variable equal 5 and the x variable equal 2 then the k-constant variation equal 2 (calculation y=k*x --> 5=2*2.5). This constant shows the relationship between the variables.</span>

A new experimental strain of pepper plants was being studied to estimate how much fruit one plant would produce in a typical gro
zmey [24]

Answer:

58.9% produced produced peppers weighing between 13 and 16 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 15

Standard Deviation, σ = 1.75

We are given that the distribution of weight of peppers is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(peppers weighing between 13 and 16 pounds)

P(13 \leq x \leq 16) = P(\displaystyle\frac{13 - 15}{1.75} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{16-15}{1.75}) = P(-1.142\leq z \leq 0.571)\\\\= P(z \leq 0.571) - P(z < -1.142)\\= 0.716 - 0.127 = 0.589 = 58.9\%

P(13 \leq x \leq 16) = 58.9\%

58.9% produced produced peppers weighing between 13 and 16 pounds.
