Answer: 123 square feet

Step-by-step explanation: The question is a little odd, but I can break it down easily. It wants us to find the area of a three foot border around his room.

First, the whole area of his room is 20 x 24 = 480

Next, we have to make the measurements 3 feet smaller on each wall, so 17 x 21 = 357

Finally, to find the area of the border, we simply do 480 - 357 = 123

He needs to buy 123 square feet of carpeting

Hope this helps!

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time, one going northwest (bearing 135°) at 421 mph and the other going east at 384 m
Papessa [141]
I am not sure if I am correct.
I think that the angles did not help to solve the problem, ( it makes an obtuse angle)
and the unit rate is 421 mph and 384 mph.

2*421+384*2= 1610 miles
or
2 (421+384)= 1610 miles


Answer: 1610 miles

The sum of two numbers is 64. The difference between the numbers is 14. Write a system
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

They say that the sum of the two numbers (x and y) is 64, so we can write our first equation by adding them and setting that sum equal to 64:

x + y = 64

The question also tells us that their difference is 14. Similarly to before, we'll just subtract the two numbers and set that difference equal to 14:

x - y = 14

Now from here, you know how to continue with substitution to find the values for x and y. Just remember when you get a word problem to break it down and look for key words like sum, difference, or product, and from there you'll be able to build your system of equations.

Factor x^2-5x-24 i need help to figure this out
Mrac [35]

Answer:

(x-8)(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find out what are the factors of the constant?

2) Which of those add to equal the coefficient before the x value?

In this particular equation, we have the constant being 24. The first two factors that come to mind are 6 and 4, and 8 and 3. Since it is -24, we need one of these numbers to be negative.

Let's look at our "b" value, or the coefficient behind the x value, 5. Looking at our factors and thinking of addition (since one of them must be negative, it will most likely be subtraction instead of addition) I can see that

8+ −3=5

which is one of the factors of -24.

This means that we can factor our equation using these numbers, getting us the following:

(x−3)(x+8)

Hope this helped!

If A and B are two points having coordinates (- 2, 2) and (2,-4) respectively, find the coordinates of P such that AP= AB.​
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

(0,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The mid point of A(-2,2) and B(2,-4) is the coordinates of point P, which is (x,y)

Hence, the line AB = AP + PB.

At point AP: x = (-2+2)/2 = 0

also, point PB: y = (2 - 4)/2 = -1

Therefore, coordinates of point P = (0,-1)

The weights of professional wrestlers are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 220 pounds and a standard deviation
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

The cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a random variable X is denoted by F(x), and is defined as

F(x) = P(X ≤ x). where x is the largest possible value of X that is less than or equal to x

z = (x-μ)/σ,

where:

x is the raw score = 205

μ is the population mean, = 220 pounds

σ is the population standard deviation = 7 pounds

205 -220/7

z = -15/7

z = -2.1428571429

Using the normal cdf function on your graphing calculator,the cumulative distribution is

normalcdf( -2.1428571429, 100)

= 0.01606229

In percent form = 0.01606229 × 100

= 1.6%
