You may recall that the area of a rectangle is A=L⋅W, where W is the width and L is the length.

Suppose that the length of a rectangle is 3 times the width. If the area is 300 square feet, then what is the width of the rectangle, in feet?

Do not type the units in your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The width is 10 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by the formula:

[tex]\displaystyle A=L\cdot W[/tex]

Where L is the length and W is the width.

We are given that the length of the rectangle is three times the width. In other words:

[tex]L=3W[/tex]

The total area is 300 square feet. And we want to determine the width of the rectangle.

So, substitute 300 for A and 3W for L:

[tex](300)=(3W)\cdot W[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]300=3W^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by three:

[tex]W^2=100[/tex]

And take the principal square root of both sides. So:

[tex]W=10[/tex]

Thus, the width of the rectangle is 10 feet.

c. 42[tex]\pi[/tex] in.
d. 196[tex]\pi[/tex] in.

Answers

Answer:

b. 28[tex]\pi[/tex] in.

Step-by-step explanation:

circumference of a circle = 2 [tex]\pi[/tex] r

whrere r is the radius of rhe circle

= 2 × [tex]\pi[/tex] × 14 in.

= 28 [tex]\pi[/tex] in.

that is option b

We have to find,

The circumference of the given circle in terms of the π.

The formula we use,

→ C = 2πr

Then we can find the circumference,

→ 2 × π × r

→ 2 × π × 14

→ 28π in.

Hence, option (b) is correct answer.

A gym at a school is being painted. The four walls and the ceiling are to be painted (but not the floor). The gym measures 100 ft x 65 ft x 25 ft. A 5 gallon can of paint costs $151.99 and covers 1750 ft. How many cans should be purchased? What will it cost to paint two coats for this gym (include HST)? ​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

17 cans$2,971.40

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume ...

the 25' dimension is the wall heightthe HST rate is 15% (the paint is not purchased in Ontario)only full cans of paint can be purchased

The wall area is the wall height times the perimeter of the room.

  wall area = (25')(2(100' +65')) = 8250 ft²

The ceiling area is the product of length and width.

  ceiling area = (100')(65') = 6500 ft²

Then the area to be painted with each coat is ...

  painted area = wall area + ceiling area = (8250 +6500) ft² = 14750 ft²

Then two coats of paint will require sufficient paint to cover ...

  (2 coats)×(14750 ft²/coat) = 29,500 ft²

__

If each can of paint covers 1750 ft², the number of cans required is ...

  (29,500 ft²)/(1750 ft²/can) = 16.86 cans

  17 cans must be purchased

__

The cost of 17 cans of paint with sales tax will be ...

  (17 cans)($151.99/can)(1 +15%) = $2971.40

During the first part of a 6-hour trip, you travel 240 miles at an average speed of r miles per hour. For the next 72 miles of the trip, you
increase your speed by 10 miles per hour. What were
your two average speeds?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

50 mph for 4.8 hours60 mph for 1.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to write the relationship between time, speed, and distance is ...

  time = distance/speed

For the first part of the trip, the time is ...

  t1 = 240/r

For the second part of the trip, the time is ...

  t2 = 72/(r+10)

The total time is 6 hours, so we have ...

  t1 +t2 = 6

  240/r +72/(r+10) = 6

We can simplify this a bit by multiplying by (r)(r+10)/6 to get ...

   40(r+10) +12(r) = r(r+10)

  r² -42r -400 = 0 . . . . . . . . subtract the left side and collect terms

  (r -50)(r +8) = 0 . . . . . . . . factor

  r = 50 . . . . . the positive solution of interest.

The two average speeds were 50 mph and 60 mph.

Consumers Energy states that the average electric bill across the state is $39.09. You want to test the claim that the average bill amount is actually different from $39.09. What are the appropriate hypotheses for this test

Answers

The null hypothesis is [tex]\mu = 39.09[/tex]  

The symbol [tex]\mu[/tex] is the Greek letter mu

The alternate hypothesis is [tex]\mu \ne 39.09[/tex] telling us we have a two-tailed test here. The "not equal" is directly tied to the keyword "different" given in the instructions. In other words, mu being different from 39.09 directly leads to [tex]\mu \ne 39.09[/tex]

So either mu is 39.09 or it's not 39.09

You can use H0 and H1 to represent the null and alternate hypotheses respectively.  

----------------------

Summary:

The two hypotheses are

H0: [tex]\mu = 39.09[/tex]

H1: [tex]\mu \ne 39.09[/tex]

This is a two tailed test.

An electronic system contains three cooling components that operate independently. The probability of each component's failure is 0.05. The system will overheat if and only if at least two components fail. Calculate the probability that the system will overheat.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Pr= 0.00725[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p = 0.05[/tex] ---- probability that each component fails

[tex]n = 3[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(System\ Overheats)[/tex]

We understand that the system will overheat if at least 2 component fails; Assume the components are: x, y and z

The events that the system will overheat are: xyz', xy'z, x'yz and xyz

Where ' means that the component did not fail, and the probability is 1 - p (i.e. complement rule)

So, we have:

[tex]xyz' \to 0.05 * 0.05 * (1 - 0.05) = 0.002375[/tex]

[tex]xy'z \to 0.05 * (1 - 0.05)* 0.05 = 0.002375[/tex]

[tex]x'yz \to (1 - 0.05)* 0.05 * 0.05 = 0.002375[/tex]

[tex]xyz \to 0.05 * 0.05 * 0.05 =0.000125[/tex]

So, the required probability is:

[tex]Pr= 0.002375 +0.002375 +0.002375 + 0.000125[/tex]

[tex]Pr= 0.00725[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

With this graph,the equation can be found on a straight line as the graph is .

So the formula is

[tex]y - y1 = m(x - x1)[/tex]

where your m is your gradient or slope as already said,the equation can be used by this formula (note;after finding your normal slope (not on a straight line ) firstly)

A sample of students was asked what political party do they belong. which of the following types of graphical display would be appropriate for the sample?
A. Stemplot.
B. Pie chart.
C. Scatterplot.
D. All of the above.

Answers

Answer:

B. Pie chart.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, the students are asked what political party they belong. The best display format would be one in which the graph can be divided into parts, or percents, according to the percentage of students belonging to each political party. The graph that best describes this, distributing a group into parts, is a pie chart, and thus, the correct answer is given by option b.

Scatterplot is used when two variables correlate together, that is, there is a relationship between them, which we don't have between the number, or proportion of students belonging to each political party. Stemplot are used when there is a high number of quantitative data, which we do not have here.

In a randomly selected sample of 100 students at a University, 81 of them had access to a computer at home. Give the value of the standard error for the point estimate.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the standard error for the point estimate is of 0.0392.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In a randomly selected sample of 100 students at a University, 81 of them had access to a computer at home.

This means that [tex]n = 100, p = \frac{81}{100} = 0.81[/tex]

Give the value of the standard error for the point estimate.

This is s. So

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.81*0.19}{100}} = 0.0392[/tex]

The value of the standard error for the point estimate is of 0.0392.

Answers

Answer:

B. h = 7.4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

height of the laptop screen = h

d = 12.1 in.

w = 9.6 in.

We are given the formula,

d = √(w² + h²)

Plug in the values and solve for h

12.1 = √(9.6² + h²)

Square both sides

12.1² = 9.6² + h²

146.41 = 92.16 + h²

146.41 - 92.16 = h²

54.25 = h²

√54.25 = h

7.4 = h (nearest tenth)

h = 7.4 inches

b. What is the probability that one customer is receiving a haircut and two customers are waiting?
c. What is the probability that more than two customers are waiting?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrival rate = ∧ = 2.2 customers per hour  

Service rate = u = 5 customers per hour  

1. Probability that one customer is receiving a haircut and one customer is waiting  

P(2 customers)=(∧/u)^2 * (1-∧/u)=(2.2/5)^2 * (1-2.2/5)=0.1936*0.56= 0.108416

 

2. Probability that one customer is receiving a haircut and two customers are waiting  

P(3 customers)= (∧/u)^3 * (1-∧/u)=(2.2/5)^3 * (1-2.2/5)= 0.085184  

* 0.56= 0.04770304

 

3. Probability that more than two customers are waiting  

P(more than 3 customers)=1- P(less than 3 customers) =  

1- [P(0)+P(1)+P(2)+P(3)]=  

= 1- [(1-2.2/5) +2.2/5*(1- 2.2/5) + 0.108416+0.04770304]=1-0.9625=0.0375
