$\large \color{lime}Answer:$

$\frac{5}{8} \div 2 = \frac{5}{8} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{16}$

$\large \color{gold}Explaination:$

Change divide into multiplication then find the reciprocal of 2 then change the places of it then multiply to 5/8 and you will get the product.

The back of Dante's property is a creek. Dante would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fencing

Allushta [10]

The correct value is 720 ft of fencing.

Answer:

Max Area = 64800 sq.ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A square will always give us the maximum area.

Thus, one side would be;

720/4 = 180 feet

So, we want a square 180 ft by 180 ft

however, from the question, we are to use the creek as one side. So, we'll take the 180 ft that we don't need because of the creek and then add it to the opposite side to get 180 + 180 = 360 ft.

Thus,we now have a rectangle with dimensions: 180 ft by 360 ft

Area is given by;

area = length × width

Maximum Area = 180 × 360

Max Area = 64800 sq.ft

A programmer wants to display how the shape of a rectangle with a fixed perimeter of 300 inches can be changed by varying the re

stiv31 [10]

If the rectangle has a fixed width of 300, it means that

$2(l+w)=300 \iff l+w=150 \iff w=150-l$

where $w$ and $l$ are width and length, respetively.

So given the length $l$ , the are would be

$l\times w = l\times (150-l)=-l^2+150l$

A half-century ago, the mean height of women in a particular country in their 20s was 64.7 inches. Assume that the heights of

Ainat [17]

Answer:

99.5% of all samples of 21 of today's women in their 20's have mean heights of at least 65.86 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a half-century ago, the mean height of women in a particular country in their 20's was 64.7 inches. Assume that the heights of today's women in their 20's are approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 2.07 inches.

Also, a samples of 21 of today's women in their 20's have been taken.

Let $\bar X$ = sample mean heights

The z-score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

Z = $\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean height of women = 64.7 inches

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 2.07 inches

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

Now, Probability that the sample of 21 of today's women in their 20's have mean heights of at least 65.86 inches is given by = P( $\bar X$ $\geq$ 65.86 inches)

P( $\bar X$ $\geq$ 65.86 inches) = P( $\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ $\geq$ $\frac{65.86-64.7}{\frac{2.07}{\sqrt{21} } }$ ) = P(Z $\geq$ -2.57) = P(Z $\leq$ 2.57)

= 0.99492 or 99.5%

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.57 in the z table which has an area of 0.99492.

Therefore, 99.5% of all samples of 21 of today's women in their 20's have mean heights of at least 65.86 inches.
