Answer:

390 pens in total

Step-by-step explanation:

Each box has 6 black and 4 black

so the total amount of pens per box should be 10 because 6+4=10

Since we have to use distributive property you can write the equation (6+4)*39 because you need to figure out the total amount of pens in all the boxes.

6+4 is 10

and 10 * 39 is 390

therefore the answer is 390 pens in total

The length of a rectangle is 3” more than twice the width. The area of the rectangle is 150 in^2. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

ANSWER

ABOUT THIS TUTOR ›

We know that Area = Length x Width

in this case, L = 2W + 3 and A = 150in2

so, 150in2 = W x (2w + 3)

150in2 = 2W2 + 3W

rearranging, 2W2 + 3W - 150in2 = 0

we need to use the quadratic formula to solve this equation

that formula is [-b±(√b2 -4ac)]/2a

a = 2, b = 3, c = -150

inserting those values, we get [-3±(√32 -4•2•-150)]/2•2

which becomes (-3±√1209)/4

we get (-3 ± 34.771)/4

we can discard the negative value, because no length can be negative

so, W ≅ 7.942 inches

then L = 2W + 3 ≅ 18.886 inches

Proof: 7.942in x 18.886in ≅ 149.99

kati45 [8]

Answer:

D. The center remains constant, and the area in the tails of the distribution decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Be it two independent random variables, X~N(μ;σ²) and U~Xₙ², the variable t is determined by the quotient between a random variable N(0;1) and the square root of a Chi-Square variable divided by its degrees of freedom:

t= \frac{(X-Mu)/Sigma}{\sqrt{U/n} }

As a consequence of this, the structure of the distribution depends on the parameter n (degrees of freedom), it is centered in zero and has a bell-shape similar to the normal distribution.

It has a mean and variance:

E(t)= 0 for n > 1

V(t)= \frac{n}{n - 2} n > 2

As you can see the variance of the distribution is directly affected by its degrees of freedom, which means that when the degrees of freedom change, the variance of the distribution change and so does its shape.

When ↑n ⇒ ↑V(t) ⇒ The area under the tails increases.

When ↓n ⇒ ↓V(t) ⇒ The area under the tails decreases.

In this example, the degrees of freedom of the distribution decreased from 40 to 20, then the variance of the distribution decreases and it "flattens", i.e. the area under the tails gets lowered.

The E(t) isn't affected by the modification of n, so the distribution remains centered in zero.

I hope this helps!

Last year 762 students voted in the student council election at San Bruno Middle School this year 721 students voted to the near
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Percent change = 5.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of students voted last year = 762

Number of students voted this year = 721

Change in the number of students who voted from last year to this year is given by the difference of their number. This gives,

Change in the number of students that voted = 762 - 721 = 41

Now, percentage change in the number of students that voted is given as:

\textrm{Pecent change}=\frac{\textrm{Change in number}}{\textrm{Number last year}}\times 100\\\\\textrm{Pecent change}=\frac{41}{762}\times 100\\\\\textrm{Pecent change}=\frac{4100}{762}=5.38\%\approx 5.4\%

Therefore, the percent change in the number of students that voted is 5.4%.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer: A. A tessellation that uses only one type of regular polygon

Step-by-step explanation:

When we cover a surface with a pattern of a flat geometric shapes such that there should have no overlaps or gaps, then the surface is called a tessellation.

A regular tessellation is tessellation made up by using nly one type of regular polygon. These are made up of entirely congruent regular polygons all that joining vertex to vertex

Hence, A is the correct option.
