Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a triangle and label the sides (picture below):
● the length is 2x+2
● and the width or the height is 6x
The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the sides
● P = 2x+2 + 6x + 2x+2 + 6x
Isolate the similar terms
● P = (2x+2x+6x+6x) + (2+2)
● P = 16x + 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
As the mean is 20.2 and the standard deviation is 2.4
The range within the first standard deviation is
(17.8,22.6)
This means that we can safely use the range of (18,22) as we cannot confirm whether the other values fall within the range.
Within this range there are
Answer:
First and second box had 80 and 75 lb flour originally.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two boxes contained x lb and y lb of the flour respectively.
Both the boxes contained 155 lb of flour in total.
So the first equation will be,
x + y = 155 --------(1)
If the 20 lb of the flour is taken out then amount of flour in first box = (x - 20) lb
and added to the second box then flour in second box = (y + 20) lb
After the mixing of flour statement says that "the first box will contain of the flour now in the second box."
For this statement equation will be
19(x - 20) = 12(y + 20)
19x - 12y = 380 + 240
19x - 12y = 620 ------(2)
Equation (1) × 12 + equation (2)
12(x + y) + (19x - 12y) = 155×12 + 620
31x = 1860 + 620
31x = 2480
x =
x = 80 lb
from equation (1)
80 + y = 155
y = 155 - 80
y = 75 lb.
Therefore, first and second boxes had 80 lb and 75 lb of flour originally.
