Answer:

Total weight = 70.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular frame is made from 5 straight pieces of metal. One of them goes through the diagonal of the rectangle.

2 pieces form the length of the rectangular frame, hence, they have a length of 12 m each

2 pieces from the width of the rectangular frame, hence, they a length of 5 m each

To find the length of the diagonal, we can use Pythagoras Theorem:

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Perpendicular²

Hypotenuse² = 5² + 12²

Hypotenuse² = 169²

Hypotenuse = 13

Hence, the length of the piece of metal placed at the diagonal is 13cm

Find the sum of all lengths of the metal pieces.

Total length = 12 + 12 + 5 + 5 + 13

Total length = 47 m

Total weight = 1.5 × Total length

Total weight = 1.5 kg/m × 47m

Total weight = 70.5 kg

Chelsea has 11 times as many art brushes as Monique. If they have 60 art brushes altogether, how many brushes does Chelsea have?

notsponge [240]

Let Monique's number of art brushes be m.
Then, since Chelsea has <span>11 times as many art brushes as Monique, Chelsea has 11m brushes.

Together they have 60 art brushes, so we write the equation:

m+11m=60.

This means that 12m=60, dividing both sides of the equation by 12 we get m=5.

Chelsea has 11m=11*5=55 brushes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

We can calculate this interval with the z-score of the 90% which is (by convention) 1.645

The interval is calculated as follows:

$x_m \pm 1.654(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n})$

where x_m is the mean, σ the standar deviation and n is the number of samples:

replacing these values we get:

$1.05 \pm (1.645 \times \frac{0.23}{\sqrt 65})\\1.05 \pm 0.046$

*rounded to the first decimal*

1.05 ± 0.05
