Answer:

x = 8

length is 12 meters

width is 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2l + 2w

where l is the length and w is the width.

(There are two sides with the same length, and two sides with the same width.)

Let l = x + 4 and w = 2x - 7

so 2(x+4) + 2(2x-7) = 42

Distribute the 2s

2x + 8 + 4x - 14 = 42

Combine like terms

2x + 4x + 8 - 14 = 42

Group

6x - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides

6x = 48

Divide 6 on both sides

x = 8

Plug back in

l = 8 + 4 = 12 meters

and w = 2(8) - 7 = 16 - 7 = 9 meters

Double-check: 2 * 12 + 2 * 9 = 24 + 18 = 42

18 Geometry question: Use an algebraic equation to find the measure of each angle that is representative in terms of X
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

12x - 28° = 116°

7x + 32° = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 28° and 7x + 32° are vertical angles. Vertical angles are congruent.

Therefore, to find the measure of each angle, we have to set each equation equal to each other as follows:

12x - 28° = 7x + 32°

Collect like terms

12x - 7x = 28 + 32

5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

✔️12x - 28°

Plug in the value of x

12(12) - 28

= 144 - 28

= 116°

✔️7x + 32°

7(12) + 32

= 84 + 32

= 116°

AleksandrR [38]
The rate of change is obviously that term that describe the change over a certain period. In this problem, we are given with the condition that LaToya is able to burn 20 calories per minute. Therefore, the rate of change is 20 calories per minute.

From generation to generation, the mean age when smokers first start to smoke varies. However, the standard deviation of that ag
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

z=\frac{18.1-19}{\frac{2.1}{\sqrt{41}}}=-2.744    

p_v =P(z  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can say that the true mean is significantly lower than 19 and not support the statement provided that the mean starting age is at least 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=18.1 represent the sample mean    

\sigma=2.1 represent the population standard deviation

n=41 sample size  

\mu_o =19 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

For this case we have the sample deviation but since the population deviation is also used we conduct the procedure with the population value.

System of hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is at least 19, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 19  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 19  

The statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

z=\frac{18.1-19}{\frac{2.1}{\sqrt{41}}}=-2.744    

P-value

Since is a one side lower test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z  

Conclusion  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can say that the true mean is significantly lower than 19 and not support the statement provided that the mean starting age is at least 19

The given dot plot represents the average daily temperatures, in degrees Fahrenheit, recorded in a town during the first 15 days
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Q1 = 61

Q3 = 63

Step-by-step explanation:

From the plot attached :

Data obtained is :

Temperature frequency

59 0

60 2

61 3

62 3

63 4

64 2

65 1

Frequency Total 15

Data in raw format :

60,60,61,61,61,62,62,62,63,63,63,63,64,64,65

The first quartile :

Q1 = 1/4(n+1)th term

n = 15

Q1 = 1/4(15+1)th term

Q1 = 1/4 * 16th

Q1 = 4th term

Q1 = 61

Third quartile (Q3):

Q3 = 3/4(n+1)th term

n = 15

Q3 = 3/4(15+1)th term

Q3 = 3/4 * 16th

Q3 = (48/4)th term

Q3 = 12th term

Q3 = 63
