The perimeter of a rectangle is 

P = 2w +2l
P = 68 ft

and given the ratio l/w = 9/8 from this result 8l = 9w so l = (9w)/8

P = 2w +2l

68 = 2w +2((9w)/8)

68 = 2w +9w/4

4*68 = 8w +9w

272 = 17w

w = 272/17

w = 16 

so than we know that w=16 so than the length will be 

l = (9w)/8

l = 9*16/8

l = 9*2

l = 18

so than we know that 

l = 18
w = 16

Answer:

f(9) = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a piecewise function. You have to establish what part to plug in your x value based on the designations given in the function. In this case, x=9.

9>6, so we would follow the bottom designation! When writing the function, turn every "x" into a 9.

f(x) = 8x

f(9) = 8(9)

f(9) = 72

Hope this helps you out :)!

Answer:

H1 : μ < 1225

Step-by-step explanation:

The alternative hypothesis in carrying out a statistical test could be explained as a notion which aims to displace or rival an initial position, the null hypothesis.

When declaring an hypothesis, the statement compares the initial or population mean in the hypothesis statement and not the result or outcome of the sample statistic.

In the scenario above :

The null is of the notion that :

H0 : μ = 1225 ;

Hence, the stance of the alternative which is that the mean is lower or less will be written as :

H1 : μ < 1225
