Answer:

x = 5cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Given the following data;

Length of rectangle = x + 3

Width of rectangle = 2x + 6

Perimeter of rectangle = 48 cm

The formula for the calculating the perimeter of a rectangle is;

Perimeter = 2(L+W)

Substituting into the equation, we have;

48 = 2(x + 3 + 2x + 6)

48 = 2(3x + 9)

48 = 6x + 18

48 - 18 = 6x

30 = 6x

x = 30/6

x = 5

Find the variance of the following data. Round your answer to one decimal place. x 1 2 3 4 5 P(X=x) 0.3 0.2 0.2 0.1 0.2
Reptile [31]

The variance of a distribution is the square of the standard deviation

The variance of the data is 2.2

<h3>How to calculate the variance</h3>

Start by calculating the expected value using:

E(x) = \sum x* P(x)

So, we have:

E(x) = 1 * 0.3 + 2* 0.2 +3 * 0.2 + 4 * 0.1 + 5 * 0.2

This gives

E(x) = 2.7

Next, calculate E(x^2) using:

E(x^2) = \sum x^2* P(x)

So, we have:

E(x^2) = 1^2 * 0.3 + 2^2* 0.2 +3^2 * 0.2 + 4^2 * 0.1 + 5^2 * 0.2

E(x^2) = 9.5

The variance is then calculated as:

Var(x) = E(x^2) - (E(x))^2

So, we have:

Var(x) = 9.5 - 2.7^2

Var(x) = 2.21

Approximate

Var(x) = 2.2

Hence, the variance of the data is 2.2

What is the area of a cone that has a diameter of 45ft. and the height of the cone is 96 ft.
jarptica [38.1K]

The formula for area of a cone is A=πr(r+√h²+r²). The radius is half the diameter, so 22.5.

Plug our numbers into the formula.

A=π22.5(22.5+√96²+22.5²)

the answer is 8560.16

Find the derivative of f(x)=x+1/x-1 using first principal​
zepelin [54]

f ' ( x ) = 1 ( x + 1 ) 2

 

Explanation:

differentiating from first principles

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 

f ( x + h ) − f ( x ) h

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 x + h x + h + 1 − x x + 1 h

the aim now is to eliminate h from the denominator

f ' ( x ) = lim h =0  

( x + h ) ( x + 1 )− x ( x + h + 1) h ( x + 1 ) ( x + h + 1 )

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 x 2 + h x + x + h − x 2 − h x − x h ( x + 1 ) ( x+h + 1 )

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 

h 1 h 1 ( x + 1 ) ( x + h +1 )

f ' ( x ) = 1 ( x + 1 ) 2
