Answer:

<h2>L=8in</h2><h2>W=5in</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the border/perimeter of the yellow ribbon is 26in

let the  width be x

W=x

and the lenght

L=x+3

Step two:

Required

The expression for the perimeter to find the dimensions of the yellow ribbon given the above condition.

we know that the perimeter of a rectangle is given as

P=2L+2W

26=2(x+3)+2x---------This is the expression required

26=2x+6+2x

26=4x+6

26-6=4x

20=4x

divide both sides by 4

x=20/4

x=5in

The width is 5in

The length is

L=x+3

L=5+3

L=8in

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x+4)+(x-2)+(3x+7) = 180

5x+4+x-2+3x+7 = 180

9x+9 = 180

9x = 171

x = 171/9

x = 19

state whether the slope of a line passing through (2, -3) and (1, 8) is positive, negative, zero or undefined.
Natalija [7]
Slope = change in y / change in x
 
          = (8 - -3) / (1 - 2)    =   (8 + 3) / ( 1 - 2)
 
          =   11 / -1
    
          = -11

Slope is negative.

Does anyone mind helping me with this? It seems simple enough.
Yanka [14]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that \sqrt{(x - 3)} = \sqrt{x} + 3, and we have to solve the given equation for x.

Now, we have \sqrt{(x - 3)} = \sqrt{x} + 3

Squaring both sides we get  

[\sqrt{(x - 3)}] ^{2} = [\sqrt{x} + 3]^{2}

⇒ x - 3 = x + 6√x + 9 {Since we know the formula of (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²}

⇒ 6√x = - 12

⇒ √x = -2

Again squaring both sides we get  

⇒x = 4 (Answer)

Find the mean and the standard deviation for each set of values. Show your work. 15,17,19,20,14,23,12
vekshin1
1. Mean.

\overline{x}=\dfrac{15+17+19+20+14+23+12}{7}=\dfrac{120}{7}\approx\boxed{17.14}

2. <span>Standard deviation.

First we have to square each value and calculate the mean of that squares:

\overline{x^2}=\dfrac{15^2+17^2+19^2+20^2+14^2+23^2+12^2}{7}=\boxed{\dfrac{2144}{7}}

so the variance:

s^2=\overline{x^2}-\overline{x}^2=\dfrac{2144}{7}-\left(\dfrac{120}{7}\right)^2\approx\boxed{12.41}

and the standard deviation:

s=\sqrt{s^2}=\sqrt{12.41}\approx\boxed{3.52}
