Answer:

The width is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call: L the length of the field and W the width of the field.

From the sentence, the perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 382 yards we can formulate the following equation:

2L + 2W = 382

Because the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of two times the length with two times the width.

Then, from the sentence, the length of the field is 9 yards less than triple the width, we can formulate the following equation:

L = 3W - 9

So, replacing this last equation on the first one and solving for W, we get:

2L + 2W = 382

2(3W - 9) + 2W = 382

6W -18 +2W = 382

8W - 18 = 382

8W = 382 + 18

8W = 400

W = 400/8

W = 50

Replacing W by 50 on the following equation, we get:

L = 3W - 9

L = 3(50) - 9

L = 141

So, the width of the rectangular field is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.

What is the measure of ∠x?
Dima020 [189]
The angle is a complementary angle so both angles add up to 90 degrees

Therefore set your equation equal to 90 to find angle of x

53+x=90

Subtract 53 from both sides

X= 37 degrees

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

the new point would be (1, 10).

Step-by-step explanation:

if you start with the point (6, 7) and go left 5 units and up 3 units, then the new point you land on is (1, 10) as you can see in the picture below. hope this helped!

I need some help please!<br> K is the midpoint or segment JL. JL=3x-15 <br> JK=18<br> Find x.
vazorg [7]

Because K is the midpoint of JL and JK = 18, KL must also equal 18. So the equation would be 3x - 15 = 36 because you add 18 + 18. You then add 15 to both sides to get 3x = 51. Then you divide by 3 on both sides to get x = 17.

A courier service company wishes to estimate the proportion of people in various states that will use its services. Suppose the
Orlov [11]

Answer:

95.44% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 0.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In this question:

p = 0.05, n = 212, \mu = 0.05, s = \sqrt{\frac{0.05*0.95}{212}} = 0.015

What is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 0.03?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 0.03 + 0.05 = 0.08 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.05 - 0.03 = 0.02. So

X = 0.08

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{0.08 - 0.05}{0.015}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772

X = 0.02

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{0.02 - 0.05}{0.015}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228

0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544

95.44% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 0.03.
