Answer

d. 13.5 ft by 4.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let height of rectangle be x ft

Therefore, width = 3x ft

$area \: of \: rectangle = 60.75 \: {ft}^{2} \\ \therefore \: lw = 60.75 \\ \therefore \: 3x \times x = 60.75 \\ \therefore \: 3x^{2} = 60.75 \\ \therefore \: x^{2} = \frac{60.75}{3} \\ \therefore \: x^{2} = 20.25 \\ \therefore \:x = \sqrt{20.25} \\ \therefore \:x = 4.5 \: ft\\ \therefore \:3x =3 \times 4.5 = 13.5 \: ft$

Use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution to answer this question. Fifteen percent of all students at a large un

Nataly_w [17]

Answer: 0.1289

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The proportion of all students at a large university are absent on Mondays. : $p=0.15$

Sample size : $n=12$

Mean : $\mu=np=12\times0.15=1.8$

Standard deviation = $\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}$

$\Rightarrow\ \sigma=\sqrt{12(0.15)(1-0.15)}=1.23693168769\approx1.2369$

Let x be a binomial variable.

Using the standard normal distribution table ,

$P(x=4)=P(x\leq4)-P(x\leq3)$ (1)

Z score fro normal distribution:-

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

For x=4

$z=\dfrac{4-1.8}{1.2369}\approx1.78$

For x=3

$z=\dfrac{3-1.8}{1.2369}\approx0.97$

Then , from (1)

$P(x=4)=P(z\leq1.78)-P(z\leq0.97)\\\\=0.962462-0.8339768\approx0.1289$

Hence, the probability that four students are absent = $0.1289$

Step-by-step explanation:

You are told that ...

(x, y) = (number of accessories, dollars)

and you are told that ...

number of accessories = 3

dollars = 10

so the ordered pair is ...

(x, y) = (3, 10) . . . . Point A

Sam purchased a new car for $17,930. The value of the car depreciated by 19% per year. When he trades the car in after x years,

In-s [12.5K]

What you must do in this case is to use the potential type function given in the problem:
a (b) ^ x = c
We have:
new car for $ 17,930
a = 17930
The value of the car depreciated by 19% per year
b = 1-0.19 = 0.81
the car is worth no more than $ 1,900
c = 1900
the exponential inequality is:
a (b) ^ x ≤ c
17930 (0.81) ^ x ≤ 1900
Answer:
the exponential inequality is:
17930 (0.81) ^ x ≤ 1900
where
x: number of years

lorasvet [3.4K]

ANSWER: B. 13/8

STEP BY STEP THING:

20a−16=12(3−a)

20a−16=−12a+36

32a−16=36

32a=52

32a/32 = 52/32

a = 13/8
