Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: The other side has a length of 8
Discussion:
Area of a rectangle = l * w ( length times width). In our case
Area = 144 = l * w = 18 * w =>
18 w = 144 =>
w = 144/18 = 8
Thank you,

Subtracting the lower boundary of 1492 grams from the mean of 3234 gives you 1742 grams below the mean. Dividing 1742 by the standard deviation of 871 gives you 2 standard deviations below the curve. Now doing the same with the upper limit of 4976 grams also gives you 2 standard deviations above the mean (4976-3234)/871 = 2
So you now look for what percentage of the population lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. Standard lookup tables will indicate that 95.4499736% of the population will be within 2Ď of the mean. So multiply 1278 by 0.954499736 giving 1219.851. Then round to the nearest whole number and you have an estimated 1220 babies that weigh between 1492 grams and 4976 grams.</span>
Create an equation: x*(x-3)=14
5.53112887 and 2.53112887
You can round the numbers and get 5.53 and 2.53
Not likely at all....in fact, 100% not likely, being that the drawer is only filled with 26 white socks
