Answer:

The area of the rectangle is 1222 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(L + W), where L is its length and W is its width

The formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L × W

∵ The length of a rectangle is 5 less than twice the width

- Assume that the width of the rectangle is x units and multiply

   x by 2 and subtract 5 from the product to find its length

∴ W = x

∴ L = 2x - 5

- Use the formula of the perimeter above to find its perimeter

∵ P = 2(2x - 5 + x)

∴ P = 2(3x - 5)

- Multiply the bracket by 2

∴ P = 6x - 10

∵ The perimeter of the rectangle is 146 units

∴ P = 146

- Equate the two expression of P

∴ 6x - 10 = 146

- Add 10 to both sides

∴ 6x = 156

- Divide both sides by 6

∴ x = 26

Substitute the value of x in W and L expressions

∴ W = 26 units

∴ L = 2(26) - 5 = 52 - 5

∴ L = 47 units

Now use the formula of the area to find the area of the rectangle

∵ A = 47 × 26

∴ A = 1222 units²

∴ The area of the rectangle is 1222 units²

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

(2, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".  

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"  

If we assume that we have 3 groups and on each group from j=1,\dots,n_j we have n_j individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:  

SS_{total}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x)^2  

SS_{between=Treatment}=SS_{model}=\sum_{j=1}^p n_j (\bar x_{j}-\bar x)^2  

SS_{within}=SS_{error}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x_j)^2  

And we have this property  

SST=SS_{between}+SS_{within}  

The degrees of freedom for the numerator on this case is given by df_{num}=k-1=3-1=2 where k =3 represent the number of groups.  

The degrees of freedom for the denominator on this case is given by df_{den}=df_{between}=N-K=15-3=12.  

And the total degrees of freedom would be df=N-1=15 -1 =14  

And the correct answer would be 2 degrees of freedom for the numerator and 12 for the denominator

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 + 3/4 = [2(4) + 3(5)]/20

= 23/20 = 1 3/20

1 3/20 = 1 9/60

1 1/6 = 1 10/60

1 1/6 > 1 3/20
