Answer:
The length is 48
The width is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
When 2 rectangles (figures) are similar, the ratio of corresponding sides are equal.
This rectangle is 5 by 12, so the shorter side (corresponding to 5) to the longer side (corresponding to 12) would be the same ratio, 5:12.
Let shorter side be s, and
longer side be l
It says, long side is 8 greater than twice short, we can write this as:

In similar rectangles, we have said the corresponding sides' ratio are equal, so we could write:

Now, we replace the new found expression for "l" onto this and cross multiply and solve for s first:

So the shorter side is 20. and hence the longer side would be:
l = 2s + 8
l = 2(20) + 8
l = 40 + 8
l = 48
The longer side is 48.
The length is 48
The width is 20
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
- Since 2 opposite add up to 0,remove them from the expression (+4ab, - 4ab)
2. Calculate the product
Answer: 221.25
Step-by-step explanation:
885 divided by 4
Answer:
4.924 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets denote X the lifetime of a tv tube (In years). X has distribution
, with
unknown.
We know that P(X < 4) = 0.2. Using this data, we can find the value of
throught standarization.
Lets call
the standarization of X. Z has distribution N(0,1), and its cummulative function,
is tabulated. The values of
can be found in the attached file.

The value q such that
doesnt appear on the table. We can find it by using the symmetry of the normal density function. The opposite of q, -q must verify that
, hence -q must be equal to 0.84. Thus, q = -0.84
But this value of q should match with the number
, so we have



Thus, the expected lifetime of TV tubes is 4.924 years.
I hope this works for you!
