Answer:

the height is 8 in and base is 22 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a triangle = 1/2 base *height

let the height of the triangle be x

then the width or base = 2x+6

area = 88 in²= 1/2 (x)(2x+6)

88= 2/2(x)(x+3)

88= x² +3x

or x² +3x-88=0

applying mid term break formula

x² +11x-8x -88=0

x(x+11) -8(x+11)=0

(x+11)(x-8)=0 ⇒x= -11,8  (ignoring the negative value as it cannot have negative value)

height= x=8 in

bases= 2*8+6=16+6=22in

Completion times for a reading test are normally distributed with
Tema [17]

Answer:

47.72%  of the completion times is  between 73.4 and 88.2 minutes

2.28% of the completion times is at  most 58.6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A reading test are normally distributed with  a mean time of 73,4 minutes and a standard deviation of 7.4  minutes.

\mu = 73.4 minutes

Standard deviation = \sigma = 7.4 minutes

A)Approximately what percent of the completion times is  between 73.4 and 88.2 minutes i.e.P(73.4<x<88.2)

Formula : Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

At x = 73.4

Z=\frac{73.4-73.4}{7.4}

Z=0

Refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.5

At z = 88.2

Z=\frac{88.2-73.4}{7.4}

Z=2

Refer the z table for p value

p value =0.9772

So,P(73.4<x<88.2)=0.9772-0.5=0.4772

So, 47.72%  of the completion times is  between 73.4 and 88.2 minutes

B)Approximately what percent of the completion times is at  most 58.6 minutes i.e. P(X\leq 58.6)?

Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Z=\frac{58.6-73.4}{7.4}

Z=-2

Refer the z table for p value

p value =0.0228

So,2.28% of the completion times is at  most 58.6 minutes
