Answer:

Length = 28 meters
Width = 4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the width of the rectangle is x. That means that the length of the rectangle is 7x which is 7 times as long as it is wide.

Perimeter of a rectangle:

= Length + length + Width + Width

Therefore:

7x + 7x + x + x = 64

16x = 64

x = 64/16

x = 4 meters

Length is 7 times as long:

= 4 * 7

= 28 meters

Form quadratic functions given the following information:<br> Zeroes at 4 and –2, f(0)=4

laila [671]

Answer:

$f(x)=-0.5x^2+x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A quadratic function in factored form is equal to

$f(x)=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)$

where

a is the leading coefficient

x_1 and x_2 are the zeroes of the function

substitute the given values

$f(x)=a(x-4)(x+2)$

Find the value of a

Remember that

For x=0 ----> f(0)=4

substitute

$4=a(0-4)(0+2)$

$4=a(-8)\\a=-0.5$

$f(x)=-0.5(x-4)(x+2)$

$f(x)=-0.5(x^2+2x-4x-8)$

$f(x)=-0.5(x^2-2x-8)$

$f(x)=-0.5x^2+x+4$

For each day that Sasha travels to work, the probability that she will experience a delay due to traffic is 0.2. Each day can be

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

0.8213

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a binomial probability problem given by the function:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Given that n=21 and p=0.2, the probability that she experience a delay on at least 3 days is calculated as:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}\\\\P(X\geq 3)=1-P(X$

Hence, the probability that she experience delay on at least 3 days is 0.8213
