Complete question :

Answer:

Width = 14 yards ; length = 25 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The length of a rectangular garden is 3 yd less than twice its length. The perimeter of the garden is 78 yd. What are the width and length of the garden?

Width of garden (W) = w

Lenght of garden (L) = 2w - 3

Perimeter of a rectangle : 2 (L + W)

2(2w - 3 + w) = 78

2(3w - 3) = 78

6w - 6 = 78

6w = 78 + 6

6w = 84

w = 14 yards

Length = 2(14) - 3

Length = 28 - 3 = 25 yards

There are 3 3/4 pounds of bricks in a bag. Each brick weighs 5/8 of a pound. How many bricks are in the bag.
Bess [88]

Answer: There are 6 bricks in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert from mixed number to decimal number. To do it, divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator and add the result to the whole number part. Then:

3\frac{3}{4}\ lb=(3+0.75)\ lb=3.75\ lb

Convert from fraction to decimal number. To do it you need to divide the numerator by the denominator. Then, you get:

\frac{5}{8}lb=0.625\ lb

Let be "x" the number of bricks in the bag<em>.</em>

<em> </em>Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following proportion:

\frac{1}{0.625}=\frac{x}{3.75}

Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:

(3.75)(\frac{1}{0.625})=x\\\\x=6

If a data value in a normal distribution has a negative z-score, which of the following must be true?
mel-nik [20]
Correct Answer:
The data value must be less than the mean.

The formula for the z value is:

z-value = (Data value - Mean) / Standard Deviation

The z-value will be negative when the Numerator of the above expression will be negative. The numerator will be negative only when the Data Value is less than the mean value. For example, for a data value of 5 and mean value 8, the numerator will be -3, and when it will be divided by standard deviation, the resulting z value will be negative.

So, Third option is the correct answer.
