Answer:

ANSWER: Increase each dimension by 2 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

L=length; W=width; X=amount of increase; A=area

.

(L+X)(W+X)=2(LW)

(6m+X)(4m+X)=2(6m)(4m)

X^2+10X+24=48

X^2+10X-24=0

(X-2)(X+12)=0

(X-2=0) OR (X+12=0)

X=2 OR X=-12

X=2 meters

Find mZXZx(5t - 13°Y(3t+ 3)
trapecia [35]

The diagram provided is an isosceles triangle. An isosceles triangle has two sides having equal measure and two base angles also having equal measure.

From the marks on the triangle given, line ZX and line ZY are equal in length. This also means angle X and angle Y are equal in measure.

Therefore, we would have;

\begin{gathered} 5t-13=3t+3 \\ \text{Collect all like terms and you'll have,} \\ 5t-3t=3+13 \\ 2t=16 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 2} \\ \frac{2t}{2}=\frac{16}{2} \\ t=8 \\ \text{If t=8, then} \\ 5t-13=5(8)-13 \\ 5t-13=40-13 \\ 5t-13=27 \end{gathered}

This means angle X and angle Y both equal 27 degrees each.

Note that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180. Therefore, in triangle ZXY,

distribution has a mean if 18 standard deviation of 4 a value of 24 is how many standard deviations away from the mean
liraira [26]

A  value of 24 is 2.5 standard deviations away from the mean

<h3>'How to determine the number of standard deviations away from the mean?</h3>

The given parameters about the distribution are:

Mean = 18

Standard deviation = 4

Value = 24

Let the number of standard deviations away from the mean be x.

The value of x is calculated using

Mean + Standard deviation * x = Value

Substitute the known values in the above equation

18 + 4 * x = 24

Subtract 18 from both sides of the equation

4 * x = 6

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

x = 1.5

Hence, a value of 24 is 2.5 standard deviations away from the mean

So, the complete parameters about the distribution are:

Mean = 18

Standard deviation = 4

Value = 24

24 is 2.5 standard deviations away from the mean
