A rectangular yard is X feet wide. The yard is 4 feet longer than it is wide. The perimeter P of yard is given by the equation P= 4x + 8. If the perimeter of the yard is 84 feet how long is the yard?
A. 19 feet
B. 23 feet
C. 24 feet
D. 28 feet

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Width of the rectangular yard = x feet

Length of the rectangular yard = x+4 feet

Perimeter of the rectangular yard is:

[tex]P=4x+8[/tex]

Perimeter of the yard = 84 feet

To find:

The length of the rectangular yard.

Solution:

Perimeter of the yard is 84 feet.

[tex]4x+8=84[/tex]

[tex]4x=84-8[/tex]

[tex]4x=76[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4.

[tex]x=\dfrac{76}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=19[/tex]

So, the width of the rectangular yard is 19 feet.

Length = [tex]19+4[/tex]

Length = [tex]23[/tex]

The length of the rectangular field is 23 feet.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

A particular fruit's weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 372 grams and a standard deviation of 26 grams. If you pick 36 fruit at random, what is the probability that their mean weight will be between 365 grams and 380 grams

Answers

Answer: 90.93%

Step-by-step explanation:

M= 372

s= 26

n=36

P(365<x<380)

1. Find Z ----> 365-372 [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex] = -1.6     Next Z---->  380 - 372 [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex]=  1.8

Upon studying low bids for shipping contracts, a microcomputer manufacturing company finds that intrastate contracts have low bids that are uniformly distributed between 23 and 29, in units of thousands of dollars. (a) Find the probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is below $25,000. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) Find the probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is in excess of $28,000. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.3333 = 33.33% probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is below $25,000.

b) 0.1667 = 16.67% probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is in excess of $28,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.

The probability of finding a value lower than x is given by:

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}[/tex]

Uniformly distributed between 23 and 29

This means that [tex]a = 23, b = 29[/tex]

(a) Find the probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is below $25,000.

[tex]P(X < 25) = \frac{25 - 23}{29 - 23} = 0.3333[/tex]

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is below $25,000.

(b) Find the probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is in excess of $28,000.

[tex]P(X > 28) = \frac{29 - 28}{29 - 23} = 0.1667[/tex]

0.1667 = 16.67% probability that the low bid on the next intrastate shipping contract is in excess of $28,000.

Given : ABCD is a rectangle
m∠B1DB = 60°, m∠ADB = 45°
DB1=37
Find: Volume

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠B₁DB = 60°

△B₁BD is a 30°-60°-90° triangle. The sides are in the ratio 1:√3:2

B₁D = 37 ⇒ BD = 37/2 = 18.5

BB₁ = 18.5√3

△ABD is isosceles

AB = AD = BD/√2 = 18.5/√2

volume = AB × AD × BB₁

= (18.5/√2) × (18.5/√2) × 18.5√3

= 18.5³√3/2

Suppose you are taking the bus home, and can take either Route 51 or Route 82. You know that the Route 82 will arrive at the bus stop in exactly 5 minutes, but because Route 51 is unreliable, you believe that the amount of time until it arrives is uniformly distributed between 0 and 20 minutes. You take the first bus that arrives. Let T be the number of minutes you wait until you board a bus. Find E[T].

Answers

Answer:

E[T] = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b, and the expected value of the uniform distribution is given by:

[tex]E = \frac{a+b}{2}[/tex]

Uniformly distributed between 0 and 20 minutes.

This means that [tex]a = 0, b = 20[/tex]

Let T be the number of minutes you wait until you board a bus. Find E[T].

This is

[tex]E[T] = \frac{a + b}{2} = \frac{0 + 20}{2} = 10[/tex]

E[T] = 10

4x+3y=16
y=x+3
X=
Y=

Answers

First you substitute.

[tex]4x+3(x+3)=16\\4x+3x+9=16\\7x=7\\x=1\\y=4[/tex]

Answer:

x = 1 and y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because y = x + 3 we can substitute 3y with 3(x + 3)

4x + 3(x + 3) = 16

4x + 3x + 9 = 16

7x + 9 = 16

7x + 9 - 9 = 16 - 9

7x = 16 - 9

7x = 7

7x ÷ 7 = 7 ÷ 7

x = 7 ÷ 7

x = 1

Since y = x + 3 and x = 1 y = 4.

1 + 3 = 4

x = 1 and y = 4

Check:

x = 1 and y = 4

1 x 4 + 3 x 4 = 16

4 + 12 = 16

A report on consumer financial literacy summarized data from a representative sample of 1,664 adult Americans. Based on data from this sample, it was reported that over half of U.S. adults would give themselves a grade of A or B on their knowledge of personal finance. This statement was based on observing that 939 people in the sample would have given themselves a grade of A or B.
(a) Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
(,)
(b) Is the confidence interval from part (a) consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B? Explain why or why not.
Because this confidence interval _____ is entirely below 0.5contains 0.5is entirely above 0.5 , the interval ______ is not consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B.

Answers

Answer:

a. The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is (0.54, 0.588). This means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is between these two bounds.

b. Because this confidence interval is entirely above 0.5, the interval is consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

Sample of 1,664 adult Americans, 939 people in the sample would have given themselves a grade of A or B in personal finance.

This means that [tex]n = 1664, \pi = \frac{939}{1664} = 0.5643[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.5643 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5643*0.4357}{1644}} = 0.54[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.5643 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5643*0.4357}{1644}} = 0.588[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is (0.54, 0.588). This means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is between these two bounds.

(b) Is the confidence interval from part (a) consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B?

Yes, because the confidence interval is entirely above 0.5.

Because this confidence interval is entirely above 0.5, the interval is consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B.
