Answer:

18/8 = x/3

x = 6.75 inches (length)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write 2 ratios using the information given:

A larger rectangle has a length of 18 inches and width of 8 inches.

Inches /width = 18/8

So, for a rectangle that has a length of x inches and width of 3 inches the ratio is :

x/3

Solving for x:

18/8 = x/3

18/8 (3) =x

6.75 in= x

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

A new restaurant with 134 seats is being planned. Studies show that 62​% of the customers demand a​ smoke-free area. How many se
zzz [600]

Answer: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of seats planned in new restaurant =134

The percentage of customers demand a​ smoke-free area = 62%

It can also be written as 62\%=\dfrac{62}{100}=0.62

The mean of this binomial distribution will be :-

\mu=np\\\\\mu=(134)(0.62)=83.08

Standard deviation:-

\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}\\\\\Rightarrow\sigma=\sqrt{134(0.62)(0.38)}\approx5.6

Now, the number of seats should be in the​ non-smoking area in order to be very sure ​of having enough seating​ there :-

\mu+3\sigma=83.08+3(5.6)=99.88\approx100
