Mathematics
1 answer:
lesya692 [45]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The smallest possible value for x is 9\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Triangle Inequality Theorem</u>. states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side

so

x+x>17\\2x>17\\x>8.5\ units

The value of x must be greater than  8.5\ units

so

If x must be a whole number

therefore

The smallest possible value for x is 9\ units

The number of square tiles needed is 24 tiles

The formula for calculating the area of a rectangle is expressed as:

A = LW where:

L is the length

W is the width

For the rectangle:

Area = 12 feet × 8 feet

Area = 96ft²

For the square:

Area of a square = L²

Area of a square = 2²

Area of a square = 4ft²

Determine the number of square tiles that will cover the patio.

Number of square tiles needed = Area of rectangle/Area of square

Number of square tiles needed = 96/4

Number of square tiles needed = 24

Hence the number of square tiles needed is 24 tiles.

Iq scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 what is the probability that a randomly sel
a_sh-v [17]
So we are given the mean and the s.d.. The mean is 100 and the sd is 15 and we are trying the select a random person who has an I.Q. of over 126. So our first step is to use our z-score equation:

z = x - mean/s.d.

where x is our I.Q. we are looking for

So we plug in our numbers and we get:

126-100/15 = 1.73333

Next we look at our z-score table for our P-value and I got 0.9582

Since we are looking for a person who has an I.Q. higher than 126, we do 1 - P. So we get

1 - 0.9582 = 0.0418

Since they are asking for the probability, we multiply our P-value by 100, and we get 

0.0418 * 100 = 4.18%

And our answer is

4.18% that a randomly selected person has an I.Q. above 126
Hopes this helps!

13. Maria earns $8 per hour plus a 5% commission on the price
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Inequality:

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solution:

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the weekly sales she must make to reach her goal.

Given;

Pay rate = $8

Weekly total work hours = 15 hours

Commission on sales = 5% = 0.05

Total weekly earnings is;

8×15 + 0.05×x

120 + 0.05x

Minimum Weekly target earnings = $200

So;

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solving the inequality equation;

0.05x ≥ 200 - 120

0.05x ≥ 80

x ≥ 80/0.05

x ≥ 1600

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600
