The length of a rectangle is five less than three times the width. The perimeter is 46 inches .Find the length and width

1 answer:

7 0

Let l represent length, and w represent width
l=3w-5

P=2(l+w)
46=2(l+w)
Divided 2 for both side
l+w=23
Now, I substitute l=3w-5 into this equation
3w-5+w=23
4w-5=23
Add 5 for both side
4w=28
Divided 4 for both side
w=7 inches
l=3w-5
l=3(7)-5
l=21-5
l=16 inches. As a result, the length is 16 inches, and the width is 7 inches. Hope it help!

The general term of an arithmetic sequence is tn = 32 + 3n, where n ∈N and n ≥ 1. The sequence is A) 32, 35, 38, 41, 44, 47,...

den301095 [7]

Answer:

35,38,41,44,47,50,....

Step-by-step explanation:

n ∈N means that n is an element of Natural numbers

Natural numbers are whole non-negative numbers

n ≥ 1, means that n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,........

tn = 32 + 3n

the first term t1 = 32 + 3(1)

32 + 3 = 35

the second term t2 = 32 + 3(2)

32 + 6 = 38

the third term t3 = 32 + 3(3)

32 + 9 = 41

Using y=mx+b find the slope for 7) 8x + 3y = −9

malfutka [58]

Answer:

-8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 3y = - 9

Let's make y the subject of the formula.

y = - 9/3 - 8x/3

Rearrange

y = - 8x/3 - 3

The slope is the coefficient of x which is - 8/3

Suppose these show number of hours each student in a class slept last night:

Olin [163]

⊂ Hey, rosedalphinis ⊃

Answer:

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ Given:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suppose these show number of hours each student in a class slept last night:

8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6

What is the mean of these numbers (rounded to the nearest tenth)?

What is the median?

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7.5 hours

Mean: 7 hours; Median 6.9 hours

Mean: 7.2 hours; Median 7 hours

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

⇒ Solution~:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's first define "Median".

You may be wondering "What is median/What is mean?".

When it asking for "Mean" It asking for the average.

When it asking for "Median" It asking for the middle number.

The formula for "Mean" is : M = sum of the terms/number of terms

According to the given we have;

8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6

Let's first find the "Mean":

First, add all the number together.

8 + 4 + 8 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

12 + 8 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

20 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

27 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

34 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

43+ 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

49+ 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

54+ 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

64 + 7 + 6 + 6

71+ 6 + 6

77 + 6

= 83

Now let's count how many numbers of hours each student in a class slept.

8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6 = 12

Now 83 divide by 12:

83/12 = 6.9166666666667 {Round}

6.9166666666667 = 6.9

Therefore, Mean = 6.9

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next, Let's find the "Median":

To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle.

⇒ 8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6

⇒ 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

Now we have them in order:

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

Then, we find the middle number:

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

Now You see that there two's 7 left.

If there is an even number of numbers add the two middles and divide by 2

Thus,

7 + 7 = 14

14/2 = 7

Therefore, Median = 7.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

According to the solving above we can conclude that:

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours
