----------------------------------
Define x :
----------------------------------
Let the width be x.
Width = x
Length = 2x + 5                // Length is 5ft longer than twice the width

----------------------------------
Formula for Perimeter :
----------------------------------
Perimeter = 2 (Length + Width)

----------------------------------
Find Width :
----------------------------------
58 = 2 ( 2x + 5 + x)         // Substitute Length and Width into formula
58 = 2 (3x + 5)                // Combine like terms
58 = 6x + 10                    // Apply distributive property
48 = 6x                            // Take away 10 from both sides
6x = 48                            // Switch sides. Make x the subject
x = 8                                // Divide by 6 on both sides

----------------------------------
Find Length and Width :
----------------------------------
Width = x = 8 ft
Length = 2x + 5 = 2(8) + 5 = 21 ft

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The length is 21 ft and the width is 8 ft.

Length= 5+2x
Width = x

Perimeter = 2(l+w)=58
= 2(5+2x+x)=58
= 2(5+3x)=58
= 10+6x =58
= 6x= 48
X= 8
Width=8
Length= 21

The two-way table shows the number of people whose hobbies are reading or solving puzzles and who either ride a motorcycle or do
enot [183]

The number of people whose hobby is reading but not riding a motorcycle is 5.

<h3>What is the relative frequency of not riding a motorcycle?</h3>

We want to calculate the number of people whose hobby is reading but they don't like riding the motorcycle,

therefore, when we look into the table we will find out that block A2 is the block that represents the number of people whose hobby is reading but not riding a motorcycle.

Hence, the number of people whose hobby is reading but not riding a motorcycle is 5.

At the U.S open tennis championship a statistician keeps track of every serve that a player hits during the tournament. The mean
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both 115 and 145 mph are above the mean.  Draw a normal curve and mark these speeds.  115 mph is 1 standard deviation above the mean; 130 would be 2 standard deviations above the mean; and 145 would be 3 s. d. above it.

We need to find the area under the standard normal curve between 115 and 145.  This is equivalent to the area under the standard normal curve between z = 1 and z = 3.

I used my TI-83 Plus calculator's DISTR function "normalcdf(" to calculate this area:  normalcdf(1, 3) = 0.1573.

The area between z = 1 and z = 3 is 0.1573.  In other words, the percentage of serves that were between 115 and 145 mph was 15.73%.

Find the quotient of `(2i(4+5i)(4-5i))/(4+i)`, and express it in the simplest form.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

(328i + 82)  /  17

Step-by-step explanation:

`(2i(4+5i)(4-5i))/(4+i)

= (2i(16 - 25i^2)) / (4 + i)

= (2i( 16 + 25) )) / (4 + 1)        [Note:- i^2 = -1]

=  82i / (4 + i)

= 82i(4 - i) / (4 + i)(4 - 1)

= 328i  + 82 /   (16 - i^2)

= (328i + 82)  /  17

Four times one number minus three times another number is 12. Two times the first number added to three times to the second numb
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = first number, y = second number

4x - 3y = 12

2x + 3y = 6

------------------add

6x = 18

x = 18/6

x = 3

4x - 3y = 12

4(3) - 3y = 12

12 - 3y = 12

-3y = 12 - 12

-3y = 0

y = 0

solution : (3,0)
