Perimeter = 252 = 2 Width + 2 Length

Length > Width (duh ;)

Length= Width +2 ( 2 consecutive even integer)

Linear equations:

2 length + 2 width = 252

length - width = 2   ===> length = 64 feet width = 62 feet

Answer:

Dimensions of the rectangular deck are 64 feet × 62 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangular deck = l ft

And the width of the rectangular deck = w ft

Since width and length of the deck are two consecutive even integers,

so,  l = w + 2

Now perimeter of the rectangular deck has been given = 252 ft

Then by the formula,

Perimeter = 2 (length + width)

252 = 2(l + w)

252 = 2[w + (w + 2)]

252 = 2(2w + 2)

252 = 4(w + 1)

w + 1 = \frac{252}{4}

w = 63 - 1

w = 62 ft

Sine l = w + 2

l = 62 + 2

l = 64 ft

Therefore dimensions of the deck are 64 feet × 62 feet.

The solution of - t/18 ≥ 10 is t ≤ -180 <br> True or false?
liraira [26]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

given - \frac{t}{18} ≥ 10 (multiply both sides by 18 )

- t ≥ 180 ( multiply both sides by - 1)

Remembering to reverse the symbol as a consequence of multiplying by a negative quantity, hence

t ≤ - 180

____ [38]

Answer:

Kayla plays on average 0.2 more chess games than Becker

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we must do is calculate the mean of each one.

Becker:

(5 + 2 + 4 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 5 + 3 + 2 + 1) / 10 = 2.8

Kayla:

(2 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 1 + 5 + 3 + 5 + 5) / 10 = 3

if we subtract these averages, we have to:

3 - 2.8 = 0.2

which means that Kayla plays on average 0.2 more chess games than Becker. Since it is not even a complete game, the difference between the two is very small and almost irrelevant.

if it rains tomorrow, the probability is 0.8 that john will practice the piano. if it does not rain tomorrow, there is only a .4
olga nikolaevna [1]
P(J / R) = P (J and R) / P(R) 
<span>0.8 = P (J and R) / 0.6 </span>
<span>P (J and R) = 0.6 * 0.8 = 0.48 [Probability John practicing and it is raining] </span>

<span>P(J / NR) = P (J and NR) / P(NR) </span>
<span>0.4 = P (J and NR) / (1 - 0.6) = P (J and NR) / 0.4 </span>
<span>P (J and NR) = 0.4 * 0.4 = 0.16 [Probability John practicing and it is not raining] </span>

<span>Hence; </span>

John wants to send a letter to Peter, who lives on Tesla
blondinia [14]

Answer:

The minimum number of letters John has to send to be sure that Peter receives his letter is 127 letters

Step-by-step explanation:

The four digit numbers that are multiples of 5 and 7 with the last digit = 0 is found as follows  

Since the last digit of the house number = 10, then the house number is divisible by 10 which also meets the condition that the house number is divisible by 5

We have the four digit numbers from 1000 to 9999

Hence the numbers divisible by both 7 and 10 are from (1000/70 (Which is 14 + 2/7) - 2/7)×70 + 70 = 1050 to (9999/70 (Which is 142 + 59/70)- 59/70)×70= 9940

Which gives 142 - 15 =  127 numbers which are four digit number multiples of 5 and 7 with the last digit = 0

Hence the minimum number of letters John has to send to be sure that Peter receives his letter = 127 letters.
