L = X
w = X - 8
P = 52 cm

P = 2l + 2w
52 = 2(X) + 2(X - 8)
52 = 2x + 2x - 16
52 + 16 = 4x
68 = 4x
68/4 = 4x/4
17 = X.

The length of the rectangle is 17 cm.

W = X - 8
W = 17 - 8
W = 9 cm.

The width of the rectangle is 9 cm.

In the spring of 2017, the Consumer Reports National Research Center conducted a survey of 1,007 adults to learn about their maj
musickatia [10]

Answer:

a) 0.567

b) (0.5414,0.5926)

c) (0.5364,0.5976)                  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 1007

Number of respondent that  they will be able to afford health insurance in the future, x = 571

a)  point estimate of the population proportion

\hat{p} = \displaystyle\frac{x}{n} = \frac{571}{1007} = 0.567

b) 90% Confidence Interval.

\hat{p} + z_{\text{critical}}\times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = \pm 1.64

Putting values, we get,

0.567 \pm 1.64\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.567(1-0.567)}{1007}}\\\\0.567 \pm 0.0256=(0.5414,0.5926)

c) 95% Confidence Interval.

\hat{p} + z_{\text{critical}}\times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 1.96

Putting values, we get,

0.567 \pm 1.96\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.567(1-0.567)}{1007}}\\\\0.567 \pm 0.0306=(0.5364,0.5976)

y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

x=28-6y

2x-3y=-19

(substitute the value of x)

2(28-6y)-3y=-19

y=5

x=28-6*5

x=-2

What is the most convenient method to solve the quadratic equation ( x + 4 )² = 15
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Factoring

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+4)² = 15

x² + 8x + 16 = 15

x² + 8x + 1 = 0

x =  \frac{ - 8 +  \sqrt{64 - 4} }{2}  =  - 4 +  \sqrt{15}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{ - 8 -  \sqrt{64 - 4} }{2}  =  - 4 -  \sqrt{15}

I hope this helps you :)
