Answer:

The length of swimming pool is 10 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Perimeter= 90 feet

Width= 5 yards

As we have to find the length in yards, therefore, we will convert perimeter in yards also.

As we know,

1 Yard = 3 feet

Therefore,

Dividing the perimeter by 3 to convert it into yards.

90\ feet = \frac{90}{3} \ yards\\90\ feet=30\ yards

The formula of perimeter of rectangle is;

P= 2(l+w)

Putting values of perimeter and width;

30=2(l+5)\\30=2l+10\\2l=30-10\\2l=20\\l=\frac{20}{2} \\l=10

The length of swimming pool is 10 yards.

It has long been reported that human body temperature follows a normal distribution with a mean of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Ther
Kay [80]

Solution :

The normal body temperature of any human body is considered to be 98.6$^\circ \ F$. But there is a constant debate about the body temperature of a long held standard to the body temperature.

It is given that :

Null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis :

$H_0 : \mu = 98.6$

And $H_A : \mu > 98.6$

n is given as = 180

Test statistics = 3.64

Prove = 0.018 < α = 0.05 (let reject null hypothesis for α = 0.05 )

Therefore, their results are statistically significant and the result is unlikely due to chance alone.

What is the angles mSRW?
Scilla [17]

Answer:

126°

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x +18)° = (3x)°

2x + 18 = 3x

18 = 3x - 2x

18 = x

therefore, (3x)° = (3*18)°= (54)°

m\angle SRW + (3x)\degree = 180\degree \\m\angle SRW + 54\degree  = 180\degree \\m\angle SRW = 180\degree  - 54\degree  \\\huge\red{\boxed{m\angle SRW = 126\degree}}

Solve the following rational equation plz help!!
Yuri [45]

Answer:

x = \frac{9}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{4x}{x+1} - \frac{5}{x} = \frac{4}{x^2+x} ← factor denominator

\frac{4x}{x+1} - \frac{5}{x} = \frac{4}{x(x+1)}

[ x ≠ 0, x ≠ - 1 as these would make the terms undefined ]

Multiply through by x(x + 1)

4x² - 5(x + 1) = 4

4x² - 5x - 4 = 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

4x² - 5x - 9 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 1)(4x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

4x - 9 = 0 ⇒ 4x = 9 ⇒ x = \frac{9}{4}

However, x ≠ - 1 for reason given above, then

solution is x = \frac{9}{4}
