Calculating area of rectangle.

Your measurements Another student's measurements
Length (cm) 20.70 20.74
Width (cm) 10.44 10.46
Area (cm2) ________ ________

Required:
Why might two students have different calculated areas when measuring the same rectangle?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Your measurements; Area = 216.108 cm²

Another student's measurements; Area = 216.9404 cm²

- Difference in area could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they made use of different measuring tools.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Your measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.70 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.44 cm

Area of rectangle is given by; A = length × width = 20.7 × 10.44 = 216.108 cm²

For Another student's measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.74 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.46 cm

Area = 20.74 × 10.46

Area = 216.9404 cm²

The areas they both obtained are not of equal values and this could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they used different measuring tools.

A department store manager noted that the sales of furniture contributed 20% of the store's profits in the year 2015 and 29% in the year 2016.
Of the following choices, which two statements about furniture sales are true?
a.) There was a 45% increase in furniture sales.
b.) Furniture sales rose by 45 percentage points.
c.) There was a 31% increase in furniture sales.
d.) There was a 9% increase in furniture sales.
e.) Furniture sales rose by 31 percentage points.
f.) Furniture sales rose by 9 percentage points.

Answers

Answer:

There was a 45% increase in furniture sales.

Furniture sales rose by 9 percentage points.

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute difference = new - old

29-20= 9 percentage points

absolute difference / initial value = 9/20 = .45 * 100 = 45%

Two statements which are true about furniture sales are  [tex](a)[/tex] There was a [tex]45\%[/tex] increase in furniture sales and  [tex](f)[/tex]  Furniture sales rose by [tex]9[/tex] percentage points.

What is percentage ?

Percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, "%".

Percentage [tex]=\frac{Obtained\ number}{Total\ number}\ * 100[/tex]

We have,

Sales of furniture in [tex]2015=20\%[/tex]

Sales of furniture in [tex]2016=29\%[/tex],

So,

Change in Percentage [tex]=29-20=9\%[/tex]

i.e.

Sales rise by [tex]9\%[/tex] points,

And,

Increase in Percentage [tex]=\frac{9}{20}\ *100=45\%[/tex]

Hence, we can say that Two statements which are true about furniture sales are [tex](a)[/tex] There was a [tex]45\%[/tex] increase in furniture sales and [tex](f)[/tex] Furniture sales rose by [tex]9[/tex] percentage points.

{2x + y = -1}
{3x- 5y + -21}

Answers

Answer:

(-2, 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = -1

3x- 5y = -21

Multiply the first equation by 5:

10x + 5y = -5     Adding this to the second equation:

13x = -26

x = -2.

Substituting this into equation 1:

2(-2) + y = -1

y = -1 + 4 = 3.

Checking this result in the second equation:

3(-2) - 5(3)

= -5 - 15 = -21

- Checks OK.

A construction crew is lengthening a road that originally measured 47 miles. The crew is adding one mile to the road each day. Let L be the length (in miles) after D days of construction. Write an equation relating L to D. Then use this equation to find the length of the road after 31 days.

Answers

Answer:

78 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Original length, L = 47 miles

Additional length (miles) added per day, = 1 mile

Representing as an equation :

L(D) = original length + additional length per day * number of days

Let, D = number of days

L(D) = 47 + D

Length after 31 days :

L(31) = 47 + 31

= 78 miles

Find the volume of each shape. Round your answer to two decimal places.with clear explanation.

Answers

Answer:

Volume = 111.33 in.³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the shape = volume of the rectangular prism part + volume of the triangular prism part

✔️volume of the rectangular prism part:

V = L*W*H

Where,

L = 5.1 in.

W = 3.4 in.

H = 5.9 in.

V = 5.1*3.4*5.9

V = 102.306 in.³

✔️volume of the triangular prism part:

V = ½*b*h*l

b = 6 - 5.1 = 0.9 in.

h = 5.9 in.

l = 3.4 in.

V = ½*0.9*5.9*3.4

V = 9.027 in.³

✅Volume of the shape = 102.306 + 9.027

= 111.333 in.³

tank contains 250 liters of fluid in which 20 grams of salt is dissolved. Pure water is then pumped into the tank at a rate of 5 L/min; the well-mixed solution is pumped out at the same rate. Find the number A(t) of grams of salt in the tank at time t.

Answers

Solution :

Given data :

[tex]c_{in}[/tex] = 1 g/L

[tex]r_{in}[/tex] = 5 L/min

[tex]r_{out}[/tex] = 5 L/min

[tex]$v_0$[/tex] = 250 L

[tex]A_0[/tex] = 20 g

∴ [tex]r_{net} = r_{in}- r_{out}[/tex]

         = 5 - 5

          = 0

[tex]c_{out} = \frac{A}{250} \ g/L[/tex]

Now, [tex]\frac{dA}{dt}=(r_{in} \times c_{in}) - (r_{out} \times c_{out})[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{dA}{dt} = 5-5\left(\frac{A}{250}\right)$[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}+5 \left(\frac{A}{250}\right) = 5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}+5 \left(\frac{A}{250}\right) = 5 \text{ with} \ A_0 = 20[/tex]

Integrating factor = exp(5 t/250)

Therefore,

[tex]A \times \exp (5t \ /250) = \text{integral of}\ 5 \times \exp (5t / 250) + C[/tex]

Put [tex]A_0=250+C[/tex]

C = -230

[tex]A \times \exp(5t/250) = 250 \exp(5t/250) + (-230)[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 250-230 \exp(-5t/250)[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 250-230e^{\left(\frac{-t}{50}\right)} \ g[/tex]

A random sample of 30 patties that were inspected over the course of the last week revealed that the average weight was 95.0 grams. The standard deviation was 0.25 grams. What percentage of the deliveries is likely to be outside the specification limits (outside the interval of [94.5, 95.5])

Answers

Answer:

4.56% of the deliveries are likely to be outside the specification limits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The average weight was 95.0 grams. The standard deviation was 0.25 grams.

This means that [tex]\mu = 95, \sigma = 0.25[/tex]

What percentage of the deliveries is likely to be outside the specification limits (outside the interval of [94.5, 95.5])?

Less than 94.5, or more than 95.5. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are the same, so we can find one of them and multiply by two.

The probability that it is less than 94.5 is the p-value of Z when X = 94.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{94.5 - 95}{0.25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0228

2*0.0228 = 0.0456

0.0456*100% = 4.56%

4.56% of the deliveries are likely to be outside the specification limits.

The diameter of the stem of a wheat plant is an important trait because of its relationship to breakage of the stem. An agronomist measured stem diameter in eight plants of a particular type of wheat. The mean of these data is 2.275 and the standard deviation is 0.238. Construct a 80% confidence interval for the population mean.

Answers

Answer:  

7.79771≤x≤8.20229  

Step-by-step explanation:  

Given the following  

sample size n = 8  

standard deviation s = 0.238  

Sample mean = 2.275  

z-score at 980% = 1.282

Confidence Interval = x ± z×s/√n  

Confidence Interval = 8 ± 1.282×0.238/1.5083)  

Confidence Interval = 8 ± (1.282×0.15779)

Confidence Interval = 8 ±0.20229    

CI = {8-0.20229, 8+0.20229}  

CI = {7.79771, 8.20229}

Hence the required confidence interval is 7.79771≤x≤8.20229

A certain country has 586.08 million acres of forest. Every year, the country loses 7.92 million acres of forest mainly due to deforestation for farming purposes. If this situation continues at this pace, how many years later will the country have only 237.6 million acres of forest left? (Use an equation to solve this problem.)

Answers

Answer:

At this pace the country will have only 237.6 million acres of forest left in 44 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a certain country has 586.08 million acres of forest, and every year, the country loses 7.92 million acres of forest mainly due to deforestation for farming purposes, to determine, if this situation continues at this pace, how many years later will the country have only 237.6 million acres of forest left, the following calculation must be performed:

Current amount - (amount lost per year x number of years) = 237.6

586.08 - (7.92 x X) = 237.6

586.08 - 7.92X = 237.6

-7.92X = 237.6 - 586.08

-7.92X = -348.48

X = -348.48 / -7.92

X = 44

Therefore, at this pace the country will have only 237.6 million acres of forest left in 44 years.
