Answer:

The width of the carpet is 12 inches and the length of the carpet is 120 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

2w+2(w+108)=264

^We can distribute first^

Distributing would result in:

2w+2w+216=264

Then we would combine like terms, which would result in:

4w + 216 = 264

Then we solve the equation.

4w + 216 = 264 \\ \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:     \frac{ - 216 =  - 216}{4w = 48}  \\   \\  \frac{4w}{4}  =  \frac{48}{4}  \\ w = 12

Since the width of the carpet is 12 (as we figured out). The statement said that "The length of the carpet is 108 inches more than the width."

So now we add 108 to 12 to figure out the length.

108 + 12 = 120

The length of the carpet is 120 inches.

Question- Solve for a<br> 2a+b=x
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

a = (x - b)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2a + b = x

-b         -b

2a = x - b

/2        /2

a = (x - b)/2

for ex:

x = 3

b = 2

a = ((3) - (2))/2 = 0.5

a = 0.5

2a + b = x

2(0.5) + 2 = 3

KiRa [710]
58=7/4x
Multiply both sides by 4 so the fraction cancels out:
232=7x
Divide both sides by 7:
x=33.14 (rounded)

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Type I error.

Step-by-step explanation:

The decision to shut the process is triggered by the conclusion that the average height is significantly different from 66 mm.

This means that the null hypothesis, that states that the average height is not significantly different from 66 mm (μ=66), has been rejected.

If the null hypothesis is rejected, the error that can have been made is to reject a true null hypothesis, when the process is functioning to specification and the average length is not significantly different from 66.

This is a Type I error, that happens when a true null hypothesis is rejected.
