Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height = h
Let the base = 4h + 7
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h
Area = 93 square inches
1/2 * (4h + 7)* h = 93 Multiply both sides by 2
(4h + 7) * h = 93*2
(4h + 7)*h = 186 Remove the brackets
4h^2 + 7h = 186 Subtract 186 from both sides.
4h^2 + 7h - 186 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve
a = 4
b = 7
c = - 186
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(7^2 - 4*4*(-186) ) /2*4
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 - 16*(-186)) / 8
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 + 2976)) / 8
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(3025)) / 8
x1 = (-7 +55 ) / 8
x1 = (48)/8
x1 = 6
There is another root, but it has to be minus and therefore cannot be used as a length. x2 = - 7.75
h = 6
b = 4*6 + 7 = 31
Check
Area = 1/2 * b * h
Area = 1/2 * 31 * 6
Area = 1/2 *186
Area = 93 which is what we were given so the answer is correct.
.48 is equal to 48/100=12/25 so
28 12/25
Answer: <em>w = 125</em>
Explanation: Since <em>w</em> is being divided by 5, to solve for <em>w</em>,
multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
On the left side, the 5's will cancel
and on the right side, 25(5) is 125.
So <em>w = 125</em>.

Show the work that it takes to get <em>w</em> by itself.
The confidence interval would be (10.44, 12.16). This means that if we take repeated samples, the true mean lies in 90% of these intervals.
To find the confidence interval, we use:

We first find the z-value associated with this. To do this:
Convert 90% to a decimal: 90% = 90/100 = 0.9
Subtract from 1: 1-0.9 = 0.1
Divide by 2: 0.1/2 = 0.05
Subtract from 1: 1-0.05 = 0.95
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this is directly between two z-scores, 1.64 and 1.65; we will use 1.645:
