<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

Width = 7

Length = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the width value:

Because the length is 8cm bigger than the width(x), this can be shown by:

Length = x + 8

If you recall the equation for the area of a rectangle:

Area = length x width

Simply plug the known values in:

105 = (x + 8) * x

(x * x) + (8 * x) = 105

x² + 8x = 105

Move the +105 to the other side making it a -105, meaning that this is now a quadratic:

x² + 8x - 105 = 0

Factorise this:

(x + 15) ( x - 7)

So x = -15 or x = 7

X has to be 7 because you cannot have a negative measurement.

This means that:

The width = 7

And the length = 7 + 8 = 15

your family have decided to paint your room. It took 1/2 hour to paint 1/8 of your room. How long will it take to paint your who
Elodia [21]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In  6  hours,  J  paints  1  room

So, in  1  hour,  J  paints  1/6 th of the room

Using similar logic, in  1  hour,  T  paints  1/12 th of the room.

Working together in one hour, they paint  (1/6+1/12) th =1/4  of the room.

1/4  of the room is painted in  1  hour

So,  1  room is painted in  1 1/4=4  hours

A researcher is conducting a study of charitable donations by surveying a simple random sample of households in a certain city.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

H0: p ≤ 0.50

Ha: p > 0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis (H0) tries to show that no significant variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. While an alternative Hypothesis (Ha) attempt to prove that a new theory is true rather than the old one. That a variable is significantly different from the mean.

For the case above;

Let p represent the proportion of households in the city that gave a charitable donation in the past year

The null hypothesis is that the proportion of households in the city that gave a charitable donation in the past year is not more that 0.50

H0: p ≤ 0.50

The alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of households in the city that gave a charitable donation in the past year is more that 0.50

Ha: p > 0.50

Basically all you have to do is to find what the question is telling you and the unit you will get it from the question example: 15 is what percent of 90 so first work out the question then the unit is percent% because they say what percent.
