Answer:

8m ×3.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle= length ×width

Let the length and width of the rectangle be L and W meters respectively.

Area of rectangle= LW

LW= 28 -----(1)

L= 2W +1 -----(2)

Subst. (2) into (1):

(2W +1)(W)= 28

<em>Expand:</em>

2W² +W= 28

<em>-28 on both sides:</em>

2W² +W -28= 0

<em>Factorise</em><em>:</em>

(W +4)(2W -7)= 0

W +4=0 or 2W -7=0

W= -4 (reject) or W= 3.5

Substitute W= 3.5 into (2):

L= 2(3.5) +1

L= 7 +1

L= 8

∴ The dimensions of the rectangle is 8m ×3.5m.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Population mean Z = 600

Sample mean, µ = 586.50

Size of the sample, n = 10

Standard deviation, σ = 26.77

The testing hypothesis is,

Null hypothesis = µ<600

Alternative hypothesis = µ≥600

The test statistics is the calculated value of Z,

(Z- µ)/(σ/√n)

= (600-586.50)/(26.77/√10)

= (13.5*3.1623)/26.77

= 42.691/26.77

= 1.5947

And at 5% level of significance, the table value of Z = 1.644

Here, calculated Z<Table value of Z, so we accept the null hypothesis.

So, the null hypothesis is accepted. The mean value of the laptop is less than 600.

Kobotan [32]

Answer: 5% approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

Jen earns $35,650 a year working for an electronics supplier and pays $1,749.80 in state income tax each year. To calculate the income tax rate, we divide the amount paid as tax by her annual income and then multiply by 100. This will be:

= 1749.80/35650 × 100

= 4.91%

= 5% approximately

The state's tax rate is 5%.

Ben has 2 identical pizzas.
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Let the weight if a whole pizza be x grams

Then 1/4 of a pizza weighs x/4  grams and one eighth weighs x / 8.  The difference is 32 grams so we can make the following equation:-

x/4 - x/8  = 32
x / 8  = 32
Multiplying both sides by 8:-

x = 8*32 =  256 

Answer is 256 grams.
