Answer:

5000m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

width = w

length = 2w

perimeter: 2(w) + 2(2w) = 300

2w + 4w = 300

6w = 300

width = w = 50

width*2 = length

length = l = 100

Hence,

Length =  2w = 100 m

Width = w = 50 m

Area = l*w = 100*50 = 5000m^2

Answer:

<em>5,000 square feet</em>

<u>Skills Needed: 2-D Geometry</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, it says that 300 ft is the total amount of wire used to build the rectangular plot. This means that 300 is the perimeter of the plot. It is the length of the entire boundary of the shape.

---> The formula for perimeter is: 2(l+w) for a rectangle.

2) We can use the perimeter formula to the find the length and width, and then use the area formula to find the area. Area is the total amount of space taken up by the figure in 2 dimensions.

---> Area formula is: l*w for a rectangle

3) We are given that the length is 2 times as much as (or twice as much as) the width.

---> l=2w

Using perimeter formula:

2(l+w) = 300 \\ 2(2w+w) = 300 \\ 2(3w) = 300 \\ 6w = 300\\ w = 50

We substitute in for length and then solve for width as shown above.

Given the width, we can solve for length using the fact that length is twice the width.  

l=2w \\ l=2*50 \\ l=100

We use substitution to solve for length.

4) Now given length is 100, and with is 50, we can use the area formula.

A = l*w=100*50=5000

This means the area is 5000 square feet.

Answer: If X = 5, z=<u>-3</u>

If X = 37, z= <u>3.4</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula to find the z-score for any random variable x is given by :-

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

, where \mu = Population mean

\sigma = Population standard deviation.

As per given , we have

\mu=20\\\\\sigma=5

Then , the z-score for x =5

z=\dfrac{5-20}{5}=\dfrac{-15}{5}=-3

i.e. If X = 5, z=<u>-3</u>

When x =37,then z=\dfrac{37-20}{5}=\dfrac{17}{5}=3.4

i.e. If X = 37, z= <u>3.4</u>

Question help a lottery game has balls numbered 0 through 1313. what is the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or a
Licemer1 [7]
So i'm assuming 33^a is saying any number that is a square of 33 inside of 1,313 so first, to find how many even numbers divide 1,313 by two to get 656.5 so if I am not mistaken 656 numbers in 1,313 will be even. Now find all squares of 33 that don't pass 1,313 which is 33 itself and 1,089 because 33^3 is 35,937 so add 2 to 656 to get 668. so the probability is 658/1,313 i believe.
