The length of a swimming pool is 10 ft shorter than twice the width. the length is 35 ft. what is the width

1 answer:

8 0

Okay so we need to figure out the width of the swimming pool using the length, and we know the width is 10 ft shorter than twice the width. I believe the easiest way to do this would be to first do 35-10, and then divide it in half. That gives us 12.5. To check our work I'll do the problem 12.5+12.5+10=35.

The width of the swimming pool is 12.5 ft.

Answer:

7, 9, 17

Evaluate the expression 2b^3+5 (BTW I did the first part it's 3 but I need the second part)

andrey2020 [161]

To find the exact answer based on the last step, " $2(3)^3+5$ ", you must use PEMDAS (attached image below)

$2(3)^3+5=2*27+5=54+5=59$

Thus the answer is <u>59</u>.

Hope that helps!

Deer ticks can be carriers of either Lyme disease or human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE). Based on a recent study, suppose tha

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

0.2364

Step-by-step explanation:

We will take

Lyme = L

HGE = H

P(L) = 16% = 0.16

P(H) = 10% = 0.10

P(L ∩ H) = 0.10 x p(L U H)

Using the addition theorem

P(L U H) = p(L) + P(H) - P(L ∩ H)

P(L U H) = 0.16 + 0.10 - 0.10 * p(L u H)

P(L U H) = 0.26 - 0.10p(L u H)

We collect like terms

P(L U H) + 0.10P(L U H) = 0.26

This can be rewritten as:

P(L U H)[1 +0.1] = 0.26

Then we have,

1.1p(L U H) = 0.26

We divide through by 1.1

P(L U H) = 0.26/1.1

= 0.2364

Therefore

P(L ∩ H) = 0.10 x 0.2364

The probability of tick also carrying lyme disease

P(L|H) = p(L ∩ H)/P(H)

= 0.1x0.2364/0.1

= 0.2364

A principal of $2900 is invested at 4.25% interest, compounded annually. How much will the investment be worth after 7 years?

olga2289 [7]

Let S = Sum after 13 years

So = amount invested

t = time in years

i = annual interest rate = .0325

The S = So(1+i)t = $2,200(1.0325)13 = $3,334.21
