Answer:

Length = 41\frac{7}{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Width = 8\frac{1}{2}

Length =  4\frac{7}{8} times as long as the width

Required

Determine the length

To do this, we simply multiply the length by 4\frac{7}{8}

So, we have:

Length = 4\frac{7}{8} * Width

Substitute 8\frac{1}{2} for width

Length = 4\frac{7}{8} * 8\frac{1}{2}

Convert to improper numbers

Length = \frac{39}{8} * \frac{17}{2}

Length = \frac{39*17}{8*2}

Length = \frac{663}{16}

Length = 41\frac{7}{16}

Three more than 8 times a number is 29. Find the number.
yanalaym [24]
Well, first off, to solve for this, we can write the expression and then solve from there.
Expression: 8x + 3 = 29
So, now that we have our expression, we can solve for our missing number using the balancing method.
8x + 3 = 29
8x + 3 - 3 = 29 - 3 (we subtracted the three because we needed to get rid of the three on the left side of the equation do now we are just left with 8x = 26.
8x = 26
8x/8 = 26/8. (So, the 8 on the left side cancels out and we are just left with X.
X = 26/8
X = 13/4
X = 3 and 1/4
So, in conclusion, the answer to this question is: X = 3 and 1/4 as a mixed number or 13/4 as an improper fraction.
Glad I could help!

I need help with this homework assignment, NO, I am not looking for answers, just help. Here it is.
shusha [124]
Surprisingly, a one-step equation <em>is </em>that simple; it's just an equation that takes one step to solve. So yes, 3 + 4 = 7 would be one you could do. You could also do a simple multiplication or division problem if you'd like, for instance you could do 4*3=12, or 12/4=3. Hope I helped!

compute the mean and variance of the following discrete probability distribution. (round your answers to 2 decimal places.) x p(
a_sh-v [17]

The  determined value of mean µ is 1.3 and variance σ² is 0.81.

What is mean and variance?

  • A measurement of central dispersion is the mean and variance. The average of a group of numbers is known as the mean.
  • The variance is calculated as the square root of the variance.
  • We can determine how the data we are collecting for observation are dispersed and distributed by looking at central dispersion.

The table is attached as an image for reference.

Mean µ = ∑X P(X)

         µ = 1.3

Variance (σ² ) = ∑ X² P(X)- (µ)²

                       = 2.5-(1.3)²

                (σ² ) = 0.81

The  determined value of mean µ is 1.3 and variance σ² is 0.81.
