Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let the width = x

Let the length = x + 5

Equation

2w + 2W = P

Solution

2x + 2(x + 5) = 192                  Remove the brackets    <=== Answer

2x + 2x + 10 = 192                  Combine like terms

4x + 10 = 192                          Subtract 10 from both sides

4x = 192 - 10                        

4x = 182                                 Divide by 4

4x/4 = 182/4

x = 45.5

You want to make a rectangular banner that is 18ft. Long with a trim around the entire border of the banner . You have no more t
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of rectangular banner = 18 ft

Total trim of banner available = 48 ft

To find:

Possible widths of the banner = ?

Solution:

Maximum trim available of the banner around the entire border of the banner = 48 ft

i.e. we are given the total perimeter of the rectangular banner.

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is given as:

Perimeter = 2 \times (Length + Width)

Putting the values of perimeter and length to find the value of width.

48 = 2 \times (18 + Width)\\\Rightarrow 48 =36+2 \times Width\\\Rightarrow 2 \times Width = 48-36\\\Rightarrow 2 \times Width = 12\\\Rightarrow \bold{Width = 6\ ft}

So, width possible is <em>6ft.</em>

Q = {1.7, 1.1, 1.4, 2.1, 2.3, s}. What is the absolute difference between the greatest and least possible values of the median o
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Absolute difference between the medians = 0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

After arranging Q in ascending order excluding s, we get

Q = {1.1, 1.4, 1.7, 2.1, 2.3}

Here, the median is 1.7 ( The middlemost value is the required median.)

Now, if s < 1.7,

Q= {1.1, s, 1.4, 1.7, 2.1, 2.3}

Now for the least value, median = 1.55

If s > 1.7,

Q = {1.1, 1.4, 1.7, 2.1, s, 2.3}

Now for the greatest value, median = 1.9

Absolute difference between the medians = |1.9 -1.55|

                                                                          = 0.35
