Formula for area of rectangle:
A=L x w
Here A=85 square ft
Length, L=w+12

Put values in formula.
85=(w+12)w
85=w^2+12w
Subtract 85 from both sides
w^2+12w-85=0
Factorise the equation.
(w-5)(w+17)=0
w=5 and w=-17
Ignore the negative value of width.
Width, w= 5 ft  and Length, L=12+5=17 ft

Answer: Width=5 ft and Length=17 ft

Five college students' scores on a test are 25, 25, 30, 35, and 40. what is the mean for this set of scores?
klio [65]

Answer:

Mean= 31

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean you need to add all the number together and then divide by how many ever numbers there are.

In this case

25 + 25 + 30 + 35 + 40=155

There are 5 numbers so you would divide by 5

You decided to throw a fair die four times.
Finger [1]

Answer:

If all you care about is whether you roll 2 or not, you get a Binomial distribution with an individual success probability 1/6. The probability of rolling 2 at least two times, is the same as the probability of not rolling 2 at zero or one time.

the answer is, 1 - bin(k=0, n=4, r=1/6) - bin(k=1, n=4, r=1/6). This evaluates to about 13%, just like your result (you just computed all three outcomes satisfying the proposition rather than the two that didn’t).
