Sever21 [200]

Hi I have the answer. The answer would be D. 8. If we take are trying to find half of something. Multiply every answer choice by 2. When you find the answer the answer would be the one you found with the right choice. In this case A and B ar incorrect because multiplying 2 digits would not be the answer. C is not the answer because 2 x 9 = 18. In conclusion 8 x 2 = 16. Please give brainliest I am trying to get a new rank before my birthday. Good luck !

The perimeter of a rectangle is 72 cm. The length is 3 more than twice the width What

solmaris [256]

<h3>Solution</h3>

Given :-

Perimeter of rectangle = 72 cm
The length is 3 more than twice the width.

Find :-

Dimensions of rectangle

<h3 /><h3>Explantion</h3>

Using Formula

$\boxed{\underline{\tt{\red{\:(perimeter_{rectang}\:=\:2\times (Length+Width)}}}}$

Let,

Length of Rectangle = x cm
Breadth of Rectangle = y cm

According to question,

==> perimeter of Rectangle = 72

==> 2(x+y) = 72

==> x + y = 72/2

==> x + y = 36_________________(1)

Again,

==> x = 2y + 3

==> x - 2y = 3__________________(2)

Subtract equ(1) & equ(2)

==> y + 2y = 36 - 3

==> 3y = 33

==> y = 33/3

==> y = 11

keep in equ(1)

==> x - 2×11 = 3

==> x = 3 + 22

==> x = 25

<h3>Hence</h3>

Length of Rectangle = 25 cm
Width of Rectangle = 11 cm

Diego arranges the students in his math class from shortest to tallest and measures the height in inches of each student in the

yuradex [85]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph is formed using the height of students in Diego's math class.

It is provided that he arranges the students from shortest to tallest and measures the height in inches of each student in the class.

A distribution is known as to be skewed to the right, or positively skewed, when maximum of the data are collected on the left of the distribution and the graph has a longer tail towards the right.

For a positively skewed data: Mean > Median

A distribution is said to be skewed to the left, or negatively skewed, if maximum of the data are collected on the right of the distribution and the graph has a longer tail towards the left.

For a negatively skewed data: Mean < Median

A distribution is said to be symmetric, if maximum of the data are collected in the middle of the distribution and the graph has equal proportion of tails on both sides.

For a symmetric data: Mean = Median

Find the domain and range for the following relation. State weather this is a function. (-5,1),(-3,2),(0,3),(1,1),(2,0)

Elan Coil [88]

Domain : -5,-3,0,1,2
range : 1,2,3,1,0
It is not a function because for two values of x( -5 and 1) we have one value of y which contradicts the definition of function
