Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Nikoleta is in the 10th percentile of length and weight, then that's another way of saying that she is in the bottom 10 percent compared to the rest of the population.  This is not a desirable statistic compared to what she was at birth.  Think of it this way, if you're really good at something like swimming and you're in the 95th percentile, that means you're better than 95% of the population.  You're in the TOP 5%.

Explanation:

1. It means that Nikoleta is longer and heavier than 10% of children her age.

2. We generally expect that a change from being in the 50th percentile to the 10th percentile signifies a condition that is interfering with normal growth. That is not usually considered desirable.

What is the length and the width of a rectangle with perimeter of 48 inches if its length is 7 inches longer than its width.
sattari [20]

Answer:

Length and the width of the rectangle is 15.5 inches and 8.5 inches respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length = 7 inches + Width

=> P = 48 inches

=> L = (7 + W) inches............. (1)

Perimeter 'P' is the sum of all sides of the rectangle 2 (L + W)

∴ 48 inches = 2 (L + W) .................(2)

Substitute for L in equation (2)

∴ 48 inches = 2 [(7 + W) + W]

48 = 2[7 + 2W]

48 = 14 +4W

48 - 14 = 4W

34 = 4W

W = 8.5 inches

Recall that: Length, L = (7 + W)

∴ L = (7 + 8.5)

L = 15.5 inches

Jill and Ben have the same pens Jill has 3 full boxes of pen and 2 loose pens Ben has 2 full boxes of pen and 14 loose pens how
defon
Let x be the number of pens in a box.

Jill : three full boxes of pen and 2 loose pens. 3x + 2
Ben: two full boxes of pen and 14 loose pens. 2x + 14

Jill and Ben have the same pens. 
Jill        = Ben
3x+2    = 2x + 14
3x - 2x = 14 - 2
      1x  = 12
         x = 12

To check:
Jill            =       Ben
3x + 2      =       2(x) + 14
3(12) + 2  =       2(12) + 14
36 + 2      =       24 + 14
           38 = 38

There are 12 pens or a dozen of pens in a full box.
