Answer:

The dimensions of the mirror is 9 feet and 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that the area and perimeter of a rectangle is:

Area - length x width

Perimeter - 2 (l + w)

List the factors of 18 (the area of the mirror):

1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

POSSIBLE DIMENSIONS OF MIRROR:

1 ft and 18 ft

Area = 18 ft^2

Perimeter = 38 feet

2 ft and 9 ft

Area = 18 ft^2

Perimeter = 22 feet

3 ft and 6 ft

Perimeter = 18 feet

The rectangle with dimensions 2 feet and 9 feet corresponds with the area and perimeter of the mirror mentioned. So those are the correct dimensions.

Hope these helps!

The amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed with a mean of 0.954 grams and a standard devia
olga_2 [115]

Let <em>X</em> be the random variable representing the amount (in grams) of nicotine contained in a randomly chosen cigarette.

P(<em>X</em> ≤ 0.37) = P((<em>X</em> - 0.954)/0.292 ≤ (0.37 - 0.954)/0.292) = P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2)

where <em>Z</em> follows the standard normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. (We just transform <em>X</em> to <em>Z</em> using the rule <em>Z</em> = (<em>X</em> - mean(<em>X</em>))/sd(<em>X</em>).)

Given the required precision for this probability, you should consult a calculator or appropriate <em>z</em>-score table. You would find that

P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2) ≈ 0.0228

You can also estimate this probabilty using the empirical or 68-95-99.7 rule, which says that approximately 95% of any normal distribution lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. This is to say,

P(-2 ≤ <em>Z</em> ≤ 2) ≈ 0.95

which means

P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2 or <em>Z</em> ≥ 2) ≈ 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

The normal distribution is symmetric, so this means

P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2) ≈ 1/2 × 0.05 = 0.025

which is indeed pretty close to what we found earlier.

What is the slope of f(x)=x^2+3 when x=-1 ?
irinina [24]
F(x)=(-1)^2+3
f(x)=1+3
f(x)=4

The slope is 0 because 4 is a constant.
