Answer:

<h2>Length is 17m and Breadth is also 17m</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as 2(L+B) where;

L is the length and B is the breadth of the triangle.

P = 2(L+B)

68 = 2(L+B)

L+B = 68/2

L+B = 34

L = 34 - B ... 1

Area of the rectangle A = LB... 2

Substituting equation 1 into 2 will give;

A = (34-B)B

A = 34B-B²

To maximize the area of the triangle, dA/dB must be equal to zero i.e

dA/dB = 0

dA/dB = 34 - 2B = 0

34-2B = 0

2B = 34

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2 we will have;

B = 34/2

B = 17

Substituting B = 17 into equation 1 to get the length L

L = 34-17

L = 17m

This shows that the rectangle with maximum area is a square since L = B = 17m

The dimension of the rectangle is Length = 17m and Breadth = 17m

A researcher collated data on Americans’ leisure time activities. She found the mean number of hours spent watching television e
ikadub [295]

The value of the z statistic for the considered data is given by: Option A: -3.87 approximately.

<h3>How to find the z score (z statistic) for the sample mean?</h3>

If we're given that:

  • Sample mean = \overline{x}
  • Sample size = n
  • Population mean = \mu
  • Sample standard deviation = s

Then, we get:

z = \dfrac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}

If the sample standard deviation is not  given, then we can estimate it(in some cases) by:

s = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

where \sigmapopulation standard deviation

For this case, we're specified that:

  • Sample mean = \overline{x} = 2.3
  • Sample size = n = 15
  • Population mean = \mu  = 2.7
  • Population standard deviation = \sigma = 0.4

Thus, the value of the z-statistic is evaluated as:

z = \dfrac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{2.3- 2.7}{0.4/\sqrt{15}} \approx -3.87

Thus, the value of the z statistic for the considered data is given by: Option A: -3.87 approximately.

How to solve the problem 3.2d-4d=2.3d+3
Liula [17]
3.2d - 4d = 2.3d + 3...simplify by combining like terms
-0.8d = 2.3d + 3....subtract 2.3d from both sides
-0.8d - 2.3d = 3 ...simplify again
-3.1d = 3...divide both sides by -3.1
d = 3/ -3.1
d = - 0.97

or
3.2d - 4d = 2.3d + 3....multiply the equation by 10, gets rid of the decimals
32d - 40d = 23d + 30....subtract 23d from both sides
32d - 40d - 23d = 30....simplify
-31d = 30...divide by -31
d = -30/31
d = - 0.97

You deposit $975.52 in a bank account. Find the balance after 4 years if the account pays 7.25% annual interest compounded quart
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The final ballance will be $1300.37.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have a compounded interest, in order to calculate the final balance we need to use the following formula:

S = P(1 + r/n)^(n*t)

Where S is the final balance, P is the initial investment, r is the rate of interest, t is the time and n is the rate at which it is compounded. Since we have all the values we can directly apply to the formula as follows:

S = 975.52*(1 + 0.0725/4)^(4*4)

S = 975.52*(1.018125)^(16)

S = 975.52*1.333

S = 1300.37

The final ballance will be $1300.37.
