A rectangle is 6 feet long and 4 feet wide. If each dimension is increased by the same number of feet, a new rectangle is formed

whose area is 39 square feet more than the area of the original rectangle. By how many feet was each dimension increased?​

Answer:

Each dimension increased by 3 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the original rectangle = 4 * 6 = 24 square feet

Increased dimension = x ft

New length = 6 + x

New width = 4 +x

New area = (6 + x)(4 +x)    {Use FOIL method}

                = 6*4 + 6*x + x*4 + x*x

                = 24 + 6x + 4x + x²

                = x² + 10x + 24

New area = 24 + 39

x² + 10x + 24 = 63

x² +10x + 24 - 63 = 0

x² + 10x  - 39 = 0

x² + 13x - 3x  - 3*13 = 0

x (x + 13) - 3(x + 13) = 0

(x + 13)(x -3) = 0   {Ignore x + 13, as it gives negative value}

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

Answer:

99% CI:

-4.637\leq\mu_v-\mu_o\leq 3.737

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 99%CI for the difference of means for the vegan and the omnivore.

First, we have to estimate the standard deviation

s_{Md}=\sqrt{\frac{2MSE}{n_h}}

The MSE can be calculated as

MSE=\frac{(SSE_1+SSE_2)}{df} =\frac{(n_1s_1)^2+(n_2*s_2)^2}{n_1+n_2-2}\\\\MSE=\frac{(85*1.05)^2+(96*1.20)^2}{85+96-2}=\frac{7965.56+13272.04}{179} =118.65

The weighted sample size nh can be calculated as

n_h=\frac{2}{1/n_1+1/n_2}=\frac{2}{1/85+1/96}=\frac{2}{0.0222} =90.16

The standard deviation then becomes

s_{Md}=\sqrt{\frac{2MSE}{n_h}}=\sqrt{\frac{2*118.65}{90.16}}=\sqrt{2.632} =1.623

The z-value for a 99% confidence interval is z=2.58.

The difference between means is

\Delta M=M_v-M_o=5.10-5.55=-0.45

Then the confidence interval can be constructed as

\Delta M-z*s_{Md}\leq\mu_v-\mu_o\leq \Delta M+z*s_{Md}\\\\ -0.45-2.58*1.623\leq\mu_v-\mu_o\leq -0.450+2.58*1.623\\\\-0.450-4.187\leq\mu_v-\mu_o\leq-0.450+4.187\\\\-4.637\leq\mu_v-\mu_o\leq 3.737
