The length of a swimming poollane

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x²+5x - 150 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be y and width be x

If the  length of a swimming pool is 10 more than 2 times the width, then;

y = 2x+10 ...1

Since the Area is 300m²

A = xy

300 = xy .... 2

Substitute 1 into 2

300 = x(2x+10)

300 = 2x²+10x

Rearrange

2x²+10x - 300 = 0

Divide through by 2

x²+5x - 150 = 0

This gives the required quadratic expression

Two chicken coops are to be built adjacent to one another from 168 ft of fencing. What dimensions should be used to maximize the
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

21 ft by 28 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To maximize the area, see the attached.

Perimeter will be 4l+3w which is equal to the fencing perimeter, given as 168

4l+3w=168

Making l the subject then

4l=168-3w

l=42-¾w

Area of individual land will be lw and substituting l with l=42-¾w

Then

A=lw=(42-¾w)w=42w-¾w²

A=42w-¾w²

Getting the first derivative of the above with respect to w rhen

42-w6/4=0

w6/4=42

w=42*4/6=28

Since

l=42-¾w=42-¾(28)=21

Therefore, maximum dimensions are 21 for l and 28 for w

450 high school freshmen were randomly selected for a national survey. Among survey participants, the mean grade-point average (
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The margin of error is of 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.7}{2} = 0.15

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.15 = 0.85, so Z = 1.037.

The margin of error is of:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation was 0.21.

This means that \sigma = 0.21

Sample of 450:

This means that n = 450

What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth?

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

M = 1.037\frac{0.21}{\sqrt{450}}

M = 0.01

The margin of error is of 0.01.
