Answer:

The number of commercial orbital launches is equal to 19 and the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The number of noncommercial orbital launches was two more than twice the number of commercial orbital launches.

Let's say that the number of commercial orbital launches is equal to x. Now, the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 2x+2.

We are told that if we add the number of commercial and noncommercial orbital launches together we will get 59.

Therefore, if we add 2x+2 with x we should get 59:

2x+2+x=59

3x+2=59

3x=57

x=19

This is how we can come to the answer that the number of commercial orbital launches is equal to 19 and the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 40 (2x+2=2*19+2=38+2=40).

Hope this helps!

Is the data set approximately periodic?
wolverine [178]

Answer:

Option: C is the correct answer.

       C. Periodic with period 4 and amplitude of about 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the table of values as:

Hour             1 -- 2 -- 3 --  4 --  5 -- 6 -- 7 -- 8 -- 9 -- 10 -- 11

Number       24-41-10-32-26-38-9-31-25-39-12

of boats

As we could see that after every 4 value the values are approximately repeating.

Hence,the data set is approximately periodic.

Also, the amplitude is calculated as:

Average of the maximum and minimum value of each set

We divide the set into 3 sets as follows:

 Hour                       1           2           3            4

Number of boat      24        41          10           32

Here we have amplitude as:

         (41-10)/2=15.5

 Hour                       5           6           7            8

Number of boat      26        38           9           31

  Amplitude is:

          (38-9)/2=14.5

Hour                       9           10          11            12

Number of boat      25        39          12      

            Amplitude is:

            (39-12)/2=13.5

Hence, we see that the amplitude is about 15.

A rectangle has a length of 3x + 7 and a width of 2x. If the perimeter of the
Art [367]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle is 31.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the length (L) and width (W) are:

L = 3x + 7

W = 2x

The perimeter of the rectangle is given by:

P = 2W + 2L

94 = 2(2x + 3x + 7)

94 = 10x + 14

x = 8

Now, we can calculate the length of the rectangle:

L = 3x + 7 = 3*8 + 7 = 31        

         

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 31 units.

I hope it helps you!
