Hi there!
<u>1) Determine the perimeter of the square</u>
We're given that the perimeters of the square and the rectangle are equal. Therefore, after finding the perimeter of the square, we will also know the perimeter of the rectangle.
Find the side length of the square using the area formula:
where l is the side length
Plug in the given area 121 in.²
Take the square root of both sides
Therefore, the side length of the square is 11 inches. Plug this into the perimeter formula:
where l is the side length
Therefore, the perimeter of the square is 44 inches. The perimeter of the rectangle is also 44 inches.
<u>2) Determine the value of x</u>
Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:
where l is the length and w is the width
Plug in 3x and x-2 as the length and width
Plug in the perimeter 44 in.
Expand the parentheses
Add 4 to both sides to isolate 8x
Divide both sides by 8 to isolate x
Therefore, the value of x is 6.
I hope this helps!
Every confidence interval has associated z value. As confidence interval increases so do the z value associated with it.
The confidence interval can be calculated using following formula:
Where
is the mean value, z is the associated z value, s is the standard deviation and n is the number of samples.
We know that standard deviation is simply a square root of variance:
The confidence interval of 95% has associated z value of <span>1.960.
</span>Now we can calculate the confidence interval for our income:
