Call the width of the rectangle x. Call the length of the rectangle x + 2. The area of the rectangle would be the length times the width. We know this is 15 square inches. Set up the equation and solve for x.

(x +2)x = 15
x2 + 2x = 15
x2 + 2x - 15 = 0
Factor the quadratic equation:
(x - 3)(x + 5) = 0
x = 3 or x = -5
Since length can't be negative, discard the answer -5.
If x = 3, then the width is 3 and the length is x + 2 or 5. 5 x 3 = 15 which equals the area.

Three times each day, a quality engineer samples a component from a recently manufactured batch and tests it. Each part is class
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Three samples of components manufactured are taken per day. They are classified as:

D: "Conforming (suitable for its use)"

E: "Downgraded (unsuitable for the intended purpose but usable for another purpose)"

F: "Scrap (not usable)"

This classification includes the three events that may occur in your sample space S. The experiment consists in recording the categories of the three parts tested in a day.

a. List the 27 outcomes in the sample space.

The possible outcomes in the space sample are the combinations of the three events. To avoid using the same letters as in the following questions I've named the evets as D, E, and F

S={DDD, DED, DFD, DEF, DFE, DEE, DFF, DDE, DDF , EDE, EEE, EFE, EED, EEF, EDF, EFD, EDD, EFF , FDF, FEF, FFF, FFE, FFD, FDE, FED, FDD, FEE}

b. Let A be the event that all the parts fall into the same category. List the outcomes in A.

A: "All the parts fall into the same category"

You have three possible outcomes for this event, that the three compounds are conforming, "DDD", that the three are unconforming, "EEE", or that the three compounds are scrap, "FFF". There are only three possible outcomes for this event.

S={DDD, EEE, FFF}

c. Let B be the event that there is one part in each category. List the outcomes in B.

B: "There is a part in each category"

This means, for example, The first one is conforming "D", the second one is unconforming "E" and the third one is scrap "F", then the first one may be unconforming "E", the second one is conforming "D" and the thirds one is scrap "F", and so on, you have 6 possible outcomes for this event:

S={DEF, DFE, EDF, EFD, FDE, FED}

d. Let C be the event that at least two parts are conforming. List the outcomes in C.

C: "At least two parts are conforming"

For this event, you can have two of the compounds to be considered conforming or the three of them.

S={DDD, DED, DFD, DDE, DDF , EDD, FDD}

A total of 7 combinations fit this event.

I hope you have a SUPER day!

Someone please answer this correctly!!
Luda [366]

Answer:

1.98 × 10^10

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve for how many text messages were sent out per one month:

22,000,000 × 900

19,800,000,000

Convert into scientific notation:

1.98 × 10^10

In scientific notation, there can only be one number before the decimal. The rest of the numbers must be after the decimal; hence, why I put the numbers 9 and 8 after the decimal. If the rest of the numbers are zeros, you do not have to add them after the decimal. Instead, starting from right to left, count the number places until you reach your decimal. The number you have counted will be your exponent. I counted nine 0's, one 8, and one 9 which made this exponent 10 as there were 10 decimal placements.

Sloan [31]

Answer:

B - 108

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular pentagon is 540 degrees. Divide 540 by 5 (since there are five sides) which equals 108 degrees.
