Answer:

62 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter, we need to know the length and width. We are given the area and length, but not the width. The given information is sufficient to find the width, using the area formula.

A = LW

228 ft^2 = (12 ft)W

(228 ft^2)/(12 ft) = W = 19 ft

The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of length and width:

P = 2(L +W)

P = 2(12 ft +19 ft) = 62 ft

The perimeter of the rectangle is 62 feet.

Answer:

0.0406, 0.8284,0.7887

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mattel Corporation produces a remote-controlled car that requires three AA batteries

X is N(34, 5.5)

Hence sample size of 25 would follow a t distribution with df = 24

This is because sample size <30

t distribution with df 24 would be bell shaped symmetrical about the mean and unimodal.

Std error of sample mean = std dev /sqrt n= $\frac{5.5}{5} \\=1.1$

Prob (X>36) = $P(t>\frac{36-34}{1.1} ) = P(t>1.82)\\= 0.04063$

i.e nearly 4.1% of the sample would have a mean useful life of more than 36 hours

X>33.5 implies $t>-0.45$

=0.82837

=0.8284 proportion will have a mean useful life greater than 33.5 hours

Proportion between 33.5 and 36 hours

= $0.3284+0.4593=0.7887$
