Let:

P - perimeter

l - length

w - width

We know:

P = 118 m

l = 2w - 7

<h3>Rectangle perimeter's formula: P = 2l + 2w</h3>

We replace the length with 2w - 7.

P = 2×(2w - 7) + 2w

118 = 4w - 14 + 2w

118 = 6w - 14

6w = 118 + 14

6w = 132

w = 22 meters

Answer:

w = 22 l = 37

Explanation:

Perimeter = P

Length = l

Width = w

Formula: P = 2 ( w + l ) + 2w

We know

P = 118

l = 2w - 7

Solve

P = 2 (2w - 7) + 2w

118 = 4w - 14 + 2w

118 = 6w - 14

6 6

w = 22

2(22) - 7

44 - 7 = 37

l = 37

What is the slope of a line that passes through (–4,–13) and (19,11)?

Anna11 [10]

For points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
slope=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

(-4,-13)
(19,11)
x1=-4
y1=-13
x2=19
y2=11

slope=(-13-11)/(-4-19)=-24/-23=24/23

Choose the fractions that are greater than 1/2.

Gennadij [26K]

5/8
6/3
7/10
These are all the answers 4/8 is 1/2 and 5/8 is over it there is no half of 3 but 6/3 is 2 and 2 is a whole number it's over 1/2
5/10=1/2 and 7/10 is over it 1/4 isn't an answer because 2/4=1/2 6/12=1/2 but it says over 1/2 and finally 5/12 isn't it because like I said above 6/12 is 1/2

ACT scores have a mean of 20.8 and 9 percent of the scores are above 28. The scores have a distribution that is approximately no

dimaraw [331]

Answer: 5.37

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = ACT scores.

Given: ACT scores have a mean of 20.8 and 9 percent of the scores are above 28. The scores have a distribution that is approximately normal.

i.e. P(X>28)=0.09 (i)

Now,

$P(X>28)=P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\dfrac{28-20.8}{\sigma})\\\\= P(z>\dfrac{7.2}{\sigma})\ \ \ \ [z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}]$ (ii)

One -tailed z value for p-value of 0.09 =1.3408 [By z-table]

From (i) and (ii)

$\dfrac{7.2}{\sigma}=1.3408\\\\\Rightarrow\ \sigma=\dfrac{7.2}{1.3408}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \sigma=5.37$

Hence, the standard deviation = 5.37
