Step-by-step explanation:

let w = width

length = 3w-2

perimeter = 2*length + 2*width

perimeter = 2(3w-2) + 2w

perimeter = 6w - 4 + 2w

perimeter = 8w - 4

perimeter = 124 inch

8w - 4 = 124inch

<em>+4 to each side</em>

8w = 128inch

<em>divide each side by 8</em>

w = 16

length = 3w-2

           = 3(16) - 2

length = 46 inch

At D.J.s Drink stand Erika ordered a cup of fruit punch made using 1/4 cup of lemonade 1/12 cup of cranberry juice. What fractio
Zepler [3.9K]

The fraction of the orange juice will be 2/3cup.

Why?

Since there is no additional information, let's assume that the fruit punch is made using just three juice fruits, lemonade juice, cranberry juice and the rest is orange juice.

We can calculate the fraction of the orange juice using the following information:

FruitPunch=\frac{1}{4}Lemonade+\frac{1}{12}Cranberry+Orange\\\\1cup=\frac{1}{4}cup+\frac{1}{12}cup+Orange\\\\1cup-(\frac{1}{4}cup+\frac{1}{12}cup)=Orange\\\\1cup-(\frac{12+4}{4*12})=Orange\\\\Orange=1cup-\frac{16}{48}cup=1cup-\frac{1}{3}cup=\frac{3-1}{3}cup=\frac{2}{3}cup

Hence, we have that the fraction of the orange juice will be 2/3cup.

Have a nice day!

A hypothesis test has a significance level of 10%. Explain what this significance level represents.
beks73 [17]
In statistical methods, the significance level is a value that is used as a criterion for rejecting a null hypothesis. It used by first looking at the differences between the experimental results and from there the null hypothesis would be determined. Then, we assume that the null hypothesis is true, the probability of the differences is computed by using statistical tools. If the computed probability is less than or equal to the value of the significance level, then you conclude that the null hypothesis should be rejected and that the results are statistically significant. Usually, a significance level of 1% or 5% is used.

A diagram of a lot of land the scale on the diagram is 1 cm represents 2.5 yards what is the area of the actual lot of land
netineya [11]

In order to determine the area of the lot of land in squared yards, proceed as follow:

Convert the dimensions of the rectangle to yards, by using the given conversion factor:

\begin{gathered} 7\operatorname{cm}\cdot\frac{2.5yd}{1\operatorname{cm}}=17.5yd \\ 15\operatorname{cm}\cdot\frac{2.5yd}{1\operatorname{cm}}=37.5yd \end{gathered}

Next, consider that the area of the lot is the area of a rectangle. Replace the previous values of the length and the width of the rectangle:

A=(17.5yd)(37.5yd)=656.25yd^2

Hence, the area of the lot of land is 656.25 sq yd
