Step-by-step explanation:

let the length and breadth's ratio be 4x and 3x

Given, 

area of rectangle = 192 in²

we know,

Area of rectangle = L × B/w 

after inserting the values in the formula we got,

→ 4x × 3x = 192 

→ 12x² = 192

→ x² = 192/12 = 16

→ x² = 16

→ x = √16 = 4

→ x = 4

therefore , length and breadth/width are,

length = 4x = 4×4 = 16

width = 3x = 3×4 = 12

hence length is 16 in. and width is 12in.

hope this answer helps you dear.....take care and may u have a great day ahead!

in a recent season NASCAR driver Jimmie Johnson won 6 of the 36 total races held to the nearest thousand ,find the part of races

castortr0y [4]

So, the fraction of races that he won was:

$\frac{6}{36}$ : you need ti divide the number of occurrences by the number of possibilities.

We can simplify this:
$\frac{1}{6}$ .

When we write it in decimals until the closest place, it's:

0.167 or 16.667%

Question 2 (Essay Worth 10 points)

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Account A: Decreasing at 8 % per year

Account B: Decreasing at 10.00 % per year

Account B shows the greater percentage change

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Percent change from exponential formula

f(x) = 9628(0.92)ˣ

The general formula for an exponential function is

y = ab^x, where

b = the base of the exponential function.

if b < 1, we have an exponential decay function.

ƒ(x) decreases as x increases.

Account A is decreasing each year.

We can rewrite the formula for an exponential decay function as:

y = a(1 – b)ˣ, where

1 – b = the decay factor

b = the percent change in decimal form

If we compare the two formulas, we find

0.92 = 1 - b

b = 1 - 0.92 = 0.08 = 8 %

The account is decreasing at an annual rate of 8 %.The account is decreasing at an annual rate of 10.00 %.

Account B recorded a greater percentage change in the amount of money over the previous year.
