We are interested in the dimensions of a certain rectangle. this rectangle has length twice the side of the square and width thr
Mila [183]
Area of square = s^2
Area of Rectangle = lw
l = 2s

w+3 = s
solve for w, w=s-3
Now we have l and w.
Plug both into area of rectangle formula so: (2s)(s-3)
Since both areas are equal set both equations equal to each other:
(2s)(s-3)=s^2
Now simplify
2s^2-6s=s^2
s^2-6s=0, Solve for s.
Factor polynomial. s(s-6)=0 , s can be equal to 0 or 6. HOWEVER, you cannot have a side length of 0 therefore the side length has to be 6.
Now plug in s for the length formula for the rectangle:
l = 2s so... l = 2(6) so length of rectangle = 12.
Now plug in s for the width formula for the rectangle:
w+3=s so... w+3=6 so width of rectangle = 3.
Now the dimensions of the rectangle are 12 by 3. 12 being length and 3 width.
To CHECK:
Find area of rectangle:
A=lw so A=3 times 12 so A=36
Find area of square:
We know the side is equal to 6 so
A=s^2 so 6^2 = 36
The areas are equal that verifies the answer of 12 by 3.

To better understand how husbands and wives feel about their finances, Money Magazine conducted a national poll of 1010 married
Xelga [282]

Answer:

  • a. See the table below
  • b. See the table below
  • c. 0.548
  • d. 0.576
  • e. 0.534
  • f) i) 0.201, ii) 0.208

Explanation:

First, order the information provided:

Table: "Who is better at getting deals?"

                                       Who Is Better?

Respondent      I Am        My Spouse     We Are Equal

Husband           278             127                     102

Wife                   290            111                       102

<u>a. Develop a joint probability table and use it to answer the following questions. </u>

The<em> joint probability table</em> shows the same information but as proportions. Hence, you must divide each number of the table by the total number of people in the set of responses.

1. Number of responses: 278 + 127 + 102 + 290 + 111 + 102 = 1,010.

2. Calculate each proportion:

  • 278/1,010 = 0.275
  • 127/1,010 = 0.126
  • 102/1,010 = 0.101
  • 290/1,010 = 0.287
  • 111/1,010 = 0.110
  • 102/1,010 = 0.101

3. Construct the table with those numbers:

<em>Joint probability table</em>:

Respondent      I Am        My Spouse     We Are Equal

Husband           0.275           0.126                 0.101

Wife                   0.287           0.110                  0.101

Look what that table means: it tells that the joint probability of being a husband and responding "I am" is 0.275. And so for every cell: every cell shows the joint probability of a particular gender with a particular response.

Hence, that is why that is the joint probability table.

<u>b. Construct the marginal probabilities for Who Is Better (I Am, My Spouse, We Are Equal). Comment.</u>

The marginal probabilities are calculated for each for each row and each column of the table. They are shown at the margins, that is why they are called marginal probabilities.

For the colum "I am" it is: 0.275 + 0.287 = 0.562

Do the same for the other two colums.

For the row "Husband" it is 0.275 + 0.126 + 0.101 = 0.502. Do the same for the row "Wife".

Table<em> Marginal probabilities</em>:

Respondent      I Am        My Spouse     We Are Equal     Total

Husband           0.275           0.126                 0.101             0.502

Wife                   0.287           0.110                  0.101             0.498

Total                 0.562           0.236                0.202             1.000

Note that when you add the marginal probabilities of the each total, either for the colums or for the rows, you get 1. Which is always true for the marginal probabilities.

<u>c. Given that the respondent is a husband, what is the probability that he feels he is better at getting deals than his wife? </u>

For this you use conditional probability.

You want to determine the probability of the response be " I am" given that the respondent is a "Husband".

Using conditional probability:

  • P ( "I am" / "Husband") = P ("I am" ∩ "Husband) / P("Husband")

  • P ("I am" ∩ "Husband) = 0.275 (from the intersection of the column "I am" and the row "Husband)

  • P("Husband") = 0.502 (from the total of the row "Husband")

  • P ("I am" ∩ "Husband) / P("Husband") = 0.275 / 0.502 = 0.548

<u>d. Given that the respondent is a wife, what is the probability that she feels she is better at getting deals than her husband?</u>

You want to determine the probability of the response being "I am" given that the respondent is a "Wife", for which you use again the formula for conditional probability:

  • P ("I am" / "Wife") = P ("I am" ∩ "Wife") / P ("Wife")

  • P ("I am" / "Wife") = 0.287 / 0.498

  • P ("I am" / "Wife") = 0.576

<u>e. Given a response "My spouse," is better at getting deals, what is the probability that the response came from a husband?</u>

You want to determine: P ("Husband" / "My spouse")

Using the formula of conditional probability:

  • P("Husband" / "My spouse") = P("Husband" ∩ "My spouse")/P("My spouse")

  • P("Husband" / "My spouse") = 0.126/0.236

  • P("Husband" / "My spouse") = 0.534

<u>f. Given a response "We are equal" what is the probability that the response came from a husband? What is the probability that the response came from a wife?</u>

<u>What is the probability that the response came from a husband?</u>

  • P("Husband" / "We are equal") = P("Husband" ∩ "We are equal" / P ("We are equal")

  • P("Husband" / "We are equal") = 0.101 / 0.502 = 0.201

<u>What is the probability that the response came from a wife:</u>

  • P("Wife") / "We are equal") = P("Wife" ∩ "We are equal") / P("We are equal")

  • P("Wife") / "We are equal") = 0.101 / 0.498 = 0.208
