The length of a rectangle is twice the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 units, find the area of the garden.

1 answer:

4 0

Perimeter = (length+width) x 2

Let w units be the width of the rectangle.

Length of the rectangle = 2w

Perimeter:
(2w+w) x 2 = 60

(3w)2 = 60

6w = 60

w = 10

Area:
2(10) x 10

= 20 x 10

= 200 units

Please help!! Write in simplest radical form: √7/8 Show how you figured it out

12345 [234]

Given expression: $\sqrt{\frac{7}{8}}$ .

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule\:}\sqrt[n]{\frac{a}{b}}=\frac{\sqrt[n]{a}}{\sqrt[n]{b}}$

$=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{8}}$

$\sqrt{8}=\sqrt{2^2\cdot \:2}=2\sqrt{2}$

$\frac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{8}} =\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2\sqrt{2}}$

$\mathrm{Rationalize\:}\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2\sqrt{2}}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:by\:the\:conjugate}\:\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}$

$=\frac{\sqrt{7}\sqrt{2}}{2\sqrt{2}\sqrt{2}}$

$=\frac{\sqrt{14}}{4}$

$=\frac{\sqrt{14}}{4}$ .

Twice a number decreased by 22 is 48. What is the number?

klemol [59]

Answer:

Given - Twice a no. decrease by 22 is 48

To find - The no.

Solution -

Let the no. be X

According to the question, equation made is -

2x - 22 = 48

2x = 48 + 22

2x = 70

x = 70/2

X= 35

Verification -

35 ×2 - 22 = 48

70 - 22 = 48

48= 48

LHS = RHS

hence proved

Answer: hello your question to the given scenerio is missing below is the missing question

question: Does this setting represent a Binomial distribution ?

answer : Yes the setting represents a Binomial distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

The setting represents a Binomial distribution, because the criteria's for a Binomial distribution is all present which are

The random variable ( number of times a crinkled paper is picked ) is represented as Y
Each sample is drawn independently and with replacement
there are only two outcomes ( success or failure )
Number of trials is given as 10
probability of success = 25 / 100 = 0.25
