The area of a rectangle is 864. the width is 2/3 of the length. What is the length

1 answer:

5 0

For a rectangle:
$A = w*l
$
Since A = 864, and W = 2/3L:
$W = \frac{2}{3}L$
$864=L* \frac{2}{3}L$
$864 = \frac{2}{3}L^{2}$
$1296=L^{2}$
$\sqrt{L^{2}} = L = 36$
Hope that helps! :)

1.11(5) - 11(4) =

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

1) 11

2) -8

3) 30

15) 80x - 128

16) 138y

Step-by-step explanation:

For these problems, you will need to use either PEMDAS or distributive property.

PEMDAS stands for parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction. Problems must be solved by going in order of the acronym, always starting with anything in parentheses first.

Example of PEMDAS:

2) 8(-3 + 2)

Solve for what's inside the parentheses first. There are no exponents, multiplication, or division within the parentheses so next would be addition and subtraction.

-3 + 2 = -1 so the problem will now look like:

8 (-1)

Next, PEMDAS says to look for exponents. There are none. Multiplication and division are next. 8 is being multiplied by -1 so lets try that:

8 × -1 = -8

-8

Distributive property is when you take the number being multiplied on the outside of the parentheses and multiply it to each individual number within the parentheses.

Example of distributive property:

2) 8(-3 + 2)

Multiply the number on the outside of the parentheses, 8, to each number within the parentheses, -3 and 2:

8 × -3 and 8 × 2

The problem should look like:

-24 + 16

Then solve:

-8

Use whichever method you are most comfortable with as both will produce the same answer. I will solve the first few and the last few to help you.

11(5) - 11(4)

55 - 44

6(9) - 4(6)

54 - 24

15) *You must use distributive property for these last problems as you cannot add or subtract numbers and variables*

16(5x - 8)

80x - 128

*You can only combine like terms so this is fully simplified*

16)

23y(2 + 4)

46y + 92y

138y

businessText message users receive or send an average of 62.7 text messages per day. How many text messages does a text message

KiRa [710]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour is 0.2180.

(b) The probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour is 0.2667.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of text messages receive or send in an hour.

The random variable X follows a Poisson distribution with parameter λ.

It is provided that users receive or send 62.7 text messages in 24 hours.

Then the average number of text messages received or sent in an hour is: $\lambda=\frac{62.7}{24}= 2.6125$ .

The probability of a random variable can be computed using the formula:

$P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!} ;\ x=0, 1, 2, 3, ...$

(a)

Compute the probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour as follows:

$P(X=3)=\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{3}}{3!} =0.21798\approx0.2180$

Thus, the probability that a text message user receives or sends three messages per hour is 0.2180.

(b)

Compute the probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour as follows:

P (X > 3) = 1 - P (X ≤ 3)

= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1) - P (X = 2) - P (X = 3)

$=1-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{1}}{1!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{2}}{2!}-\frac{e^{-2.6125}(2.6125)^{3}}{3!}\\=1-0.0734-0.1916-0.2503-0.2180\\=0.2667$

Thus, the probability that a text message user receives or sends more than three messages per hour is 0.2667.

Identify the figure that portrays the translation of the given preimage as indicated by the direction arrow.

ladessa [460]

The parallelogram will translate along the arrow and reach the head of the arrow.

The translation is a category of motion in which one body moves along towards a particular direction and reaches a particular point.

In translation, the rotational motion is not present. Also, the translational motion is a one-dimensional motion.

In the given figure, the parallelogram is present at the tail of the arrow.

The arrow depicts the direction of the translational motion.

So, the parallelogram will reach the end of the arrow as shown in the picture present in the attachment.

For more explanation about translation or rotation, refer to the following link:
