Answer:

<u>Perimeter</u>:

= 58 m (approximate)

= 58.2066 or 58.21 m (exact)

<u>Area:</u>

= 208 m² (approximate)

= 210.0006 or 210 m² (exact)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following dimensions of a rectangle:

length (L) = \sqrt{252} meters

width (W) = \sqrt{175} meters

The formula for solving the perimeter of a rectangle is:

P  = 2(L + W) or 2L + 2W

The formula for solving the area of a rectangle is:

A = L × W

<h2>Approximate Forms:</h2>

In order to determine the approximate perimeter, we must determine the perfect square that is close to the given dimensions.  

13² = 169

14² = 196

15² = 225

16² = 256

Among the perfect squares provided, 16² = 256 is close to 252 (inside the given radical for the length), and 13² = 169 (inside the given radical for the width).  We can use these values to approximate the perimeter and the area of the rectangle.

P  = 2(L + W)

P = 2(13 + 16)

P = 58 m (approximate)

A = L × W

A = 13 × 16

A = 208 m² (approximate)

<h2>Exact Forms:</h2>

L = \sqrt{252} meters = 15.8745 meters

W = \sqrt{175} meters = 13.2288 meters

P  = 2(L + W)

P = 2(15.8745 + 13.2288)

P = 2(29.1033)

P = 58.2066 or 58.21 m

A = L × W

A = 15.8745 × 13.2288

A = 210.0006 or 210 m²

Oliver had m dollars to spend on a backpack for the new school year. The expression below represents the amount of money he had
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is the amount of back pack

The total amount is represented by m

If Y is the cost of back pack purchased by Oliver, then 0.7 Y is the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Hence, the remaining cost would be total amount with Oliver minus the cost of back pack and the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Remaining cost  = m - (y + 0.07y)

Hence, option A is correct

A population is known to be normally distributed with a standard deviation of 2.8. (a) Compute the 95% confidence interval on th
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = sum of terms/number of terms

The mean of the given sample is

(8 + 9 + 10 + 13 + 14 + 16 + 17 + 20 + 21)/9 = 14.2

a)

For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z ×standard deviation/√n

Where

n represents the number of samples

It becomes

14.2 ± 1.96 × 2.8/√9

= 14.2 ± 1.96 × 0.933

= 14.2 ± 1.83

The lower end of the confidence interval is 12.37

The upper end of the confidence interval is 16.03

b)

For a confidence level of 99%, the corresponding z value is 2.58

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z ×standard deviation/√n

Where

n represents the number of samples

It becomes

14.2 ± 2.58 × 2.8/√9

= 14.2 ± 2.58 × 0.933

= 14.2 ± 2.4

The lower end of the confidence interval is 11.8

The upper end of the confidence interval is 16.6
