The length of a rectangular floor is 2 feet more than its width. The area of the floor is 168 square feet. Kim wants to use a ru

If the area is 168& the length is 2 feet more so length is 14& width is 12 (14*12= 168), the rug is 8feet in total less from all sides so it gives an area on 160. To come out with length& width knowing the length should be less than 14, so it could be either (10*16, 8*20)

An assembly line has two inspectors. The probability that the first inspector will miss a defective item is 0.06. If the defecti
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

probability that both passes a defective item is  0.8742‬

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

probability that the first inspector misses is Pr( 1st misses)= 0.06

therefore the probability he does not miss is

Pr(1st passes)= 1 - Pr( 1st misses) = 1 - 0.06 = 0.94

probability that the second misses is Pr( 2nd misses) = 0.07

therefore probability that 2nd does not miss is

Pr( 2nd passes) = 1- Pr( 2nd misses) = 0.93

probability that both passes a defective item is  Pr(1st passes)*Pr( 2nd passes)

= 0.93*0.94 = 0.8742‬

The credit remaining on a phone card (in dollors) is a linear function of the total calling trime made with the card ( in minute
KATRIN_1 [288]

After 85 minutes of calls, there are $27.25 left on the card.

<h3>What is the remaining credit after 85 minutes of calls?</h3>

A linear equation in slope-intercept form is:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope.

If the line passes through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the slope is:

a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

In this case, we know that the line passes through the points (22, 36.7) and (52, 32,20)

(points of the form (time, dollars)).

So the slope is:

a = \frac{32.2 - 36.7}{52 -22} = -0.15

The linear equation is then:

y = -0.15*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the point (22. 36.7)

36.7 = -0.15*22 + b

36.7 + 0.15*22 = b = 40

Then the linear equation is:

y = -0.15*x +40

The amount remaining in the credit card after 85 minutes is given by evaluating the above equation in x = 85.

y = -0.15*85 + 40 = 27.25

This means that after 85 minutes of calls, there are $27.25 left on the card.

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon is 2880°. How many sides does the polygon have?
harina [27]

Let

S------> The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon

n-------> number of sides of a polygon

we know that

The formula to find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon is equal to

S=(n-2)*180°

in this problem

S=2880°

Solve for n

S=(n-2)*180\\ \\ n=\frac{S}{180}+2\\ \\ n=\frac{2880}{180}+2\\ \\ n=16+2\\ \\ n=18\ sides

therefore

the answer is

18\ sides

Plz Solve Will Mark Brainliest and No Stealing Points Or Will Report<br> Part 2
jonny [76]

Answer:

Before we graph y = -\frac{1}{2}x, we know that the slope, mx, could be read as \frac{rise}{run}. To graph the the equation of the line, we begin at the point (0,0). From that point, because our rise is negative (-1), instead of moving upwards or vertically, we will move downards. Therefore, from point 0, we will vertically move downwards one time. Now, our point is on point -1 on the y-axis. Now, we have 2 as our run. From point -1, we move to the right two times. We land on point (2,-1). Because we need various points to graph this equation, we must continue on. In the end, the graph will look like the first graph given.

For the equation y = 2, the line will be plainly horizontal. Why? Because x has no value in the equation. The variable x does not exist in this linear equation. Therefore, it will look like the second graph below. We graph this by plotting the point, (0,2), on the y-axis.
