Answer:
Length = 22.98 feet
Width = 9.66 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the rectangle be L.
Let the width of the rectangle be W.
Given the following data;
Area of rectangle = 222 feet²
Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;
L = 3W - 6 ...... equation 1
We know that the area of a rectangle is given by the formula;
A = L * W
Substituting
222 = L * W ....equation 2
Substituting eqn 1 into eqn 2, we have;
222 = (3W - 6) * W
222 = 3W² - 6W
Rearranging the equation, we have;
3W² - 6W - 222 = 0
Next, we would use the quadratic formula to solve for the roots.
Note: the standard form of a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0
a = 3, b = -6 and c = -222
Solving the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula;
The quadratic equation formula is;
[tex] x = \frac {-b \; \pm \sqrt {b^{2} - 4ac}}{2a} [/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] x = \frac {-(-6) \; \pm \sqrt {6^{2} - 4*3*(-222)}}{2*3} [/tex]
[tex] x = \frac {6 \pm \sqrt {36 - (-2664)}}{6} [/tex]
[tex] x = \frac {6 \pm \sqrt {36 + 2664}}{6} [/tex]
[tex] x = \frac {6 \pm \sqrt {2700}}{6} [/tex]
[tex] x = \frac {6 \pm 51.96}{6} [/tex]
[tex] x_{1} = \frac {6 + 51.96}{6} [/tex]
[tex] x_{1} = \frac {57.96}{6} [/tex]
x1 = 9.66
We do not need the negative value of x, so we proceed.
Therefore, Width, W = x1 = 9.66 feet
For the length;
L = 3W - 6
L = 3(9.66) - 6
L = 28.98 - 6
L = 22.98 feet
Animal house rescue is holding a fundraiser raffle. they sell 2,980 tickets for $1 each for a prize telescope valued at $425. what is the expected gain or loss to a participant purchasing ten tickets
A)$4,240.00 gain
B)$8.57 loss
C)$0.86 loss
D)$12.85 gain
Answer: The answer is C, hope I helped :)
Step-by-step explanation:
A purchase of 10 tickets is at an expected loss of $0.857 to the person.
Option B) $8.57 loss is the right choice.
What do we mean by Expected Gain or Loss?The expected gain or loss is a weighted average of the probability of the different gains or losses and the gains or losses.
How do we solve the given question?We are asked to calculate the expected gain or loss for a participant who purchases 10 tickets for a raffle costing $1 each, with a prize of a telescope valued at $425. We are told that a total of 2980 tickets have been sold.
First, we calculate the expected gain or loss on 1 ticket,
= 425*(1/2980) + (-1)(1)
= 0.1426174496 - 1
= -0.857382550.
∴ A purchase of 1 ticket is at an expected loss of $0.857
Now, we multiply this by 10 to get the expected gain or loss for the person with 10 tickets.
= -0.857382550*10 = -8.57382550
∴ A purchase of 10 tickets is at an expected loss of $0.857 to the person. Option B) $8.57 loss is the right option.

2x - 6 = 2(x - 3)
3(x - 3) / 2(x - 3)
g = 3/2
Suppose we have two independent, normally distributed, populations and we draw a random sample from each population. For population A, we drew a sample of 13 and found the mean to be 17 with a standard deviation of 4. For population B, we drew a sample of 12 with a mean of 19 and a standard deviation of 3. We want to determine if the treatments result in the same effect. Show all work.
Answer:
Since the calculated value of z= -1.421 does not lie in the critical region z >
- 1.96 the null hypothesis is accepted and it is concluded that the treatments result in the same effect.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Let the null and alternate hypothesis be
H0: μa − μb = 0 the treatments result in the same effect
against the claim
Ha: μa − μb ≠ 0 the treatments do not result in the same effect
2) The significance level is set at 0.05
3) The critical region is z = ± 1.96
4) The test statistic
Z= x1`-x2`/ sqrt [( s1²/n1+ s2²/n2)]
Here
x1`= 17 s1= 4 n1= 13
x2`= 19 s2= 3 n2= 12
5) Calculations
Z= x1`-x2`/ sqrt [( s1²/n1+ s2²/n2)]
z= 17-19/sqrt [( 16/13+ 9/12)]
z= -2/1.40739
z= -1.421
6) Conclusion
Since the calculated value of z= -1.421 does not lie in the critical region z >
- 1.96 the null hypothesis is accepted and it is concluded that the treatments result in the same effect.

“Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (0,7) and (-2,7). Put
your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.”
Answer:
y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation of the line is,
y = mx + b
Here, m = Slope of the line
b = y-intercept
Line passes through two points (0, 7) and (-2, 7)
Therefore, slope of the line will be,
m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
m = [tex]\frac{7-7}{0+2}[/tex]
m = 0
If the slope of a line is 0 then the graph of the line will be parallel to x-axis.
By substituting the value of slope in the equation,
Equation of the line will be,
y = 0(x) + b
y = b
Since, the given line passes through (0, 7),
Equation of the line will be,
y = 7

Each year, a large warehouse uses thousands of fluorescent light bulbs that burn 24 hours per day until they burn out and are replaced. The lifetime of the bulbs is a normally distributed random variable with mean equal to 600 hours and standard deviation of 12 hours. The supplier of the light bulbs and the manager agree that any bulb whose lifetime is among the lowest 1% of all possible lifetimes will be replaced at no charge. What is the maximum lifetime a bulb can have (hrs) and still be among the lowest 1% of all lifetimes
Answer:
The maximum lifetime a bulb can have and still be among the lowest 1% of all lifetimes is 572 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
The lifetime of the bulbs is a normally distributed random variable with mean equal to 600 hours and standard deviation of 12 hours.
This means that [tex]\mu = 600, \sigma = 12[/tex]
What is the maximum lifetime a bulb can have (hrs) and still be among the lowest 1% of all lifetimes?
This is the 1st percentile of lifetimes, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.01, that is, X when Z = -2.327.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-2.327 = \frac{X - 600}{12}[/tex]
[tex]X - 600 = -2.327*12[/tex]
[tex]X = 572[/tex]
The maximum lifetime a bulb can have and still be among the lowest 1% of all lifetimes is 572 hours.

If p is inversely proportional to the square of q, and pis 24 when q is 11,
determine p when q is equal to 2.
Answer:
726
Step-by-step explanation:
Here p = k / q², and 24 = k / 121, or k = 2904
Then p = 2904 / q²
If q = 2, p = 2904 /4 = 726
Answer:
p = 12 × 11²
Step-by-step explanation:
By question,
=> p ∝ 1/q²
=> p = k/q²
When p is 24 and q is 11=> 24 = k/11²
=> k = 24 * 11²
When q is 2 ,=> p = k/q²
=> p = 24*11²/2
=> p = 12 × 11²

The talk-time battery life of a group of cell phone is normally distributed with a mean
of 5 hours and a standard deviation of 15 minutes.
b) What percent of the phones have a battery life between 4.5 hours and 5.25
hours? (include 1 decimal place WITHOUT the % sign)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What is it help
Approximately 47.72% of phones have a battery life of between 4.5 and 5.25 hours.
What is standard deviation?A standard deviation (or σ) is a measure of how dispersed the data is in relation to the mean. Low standard deviation means data are clustered around the mean, and high standard deviation indicates data are more spread out.
here, we have,
To determine the percentage of phones with a battery life between 4.5 hours and 5.25 hours, we need to find the area under the normal curve between those two points.
To do this, we can standardize the lower and upper limits of the range and use a table of the normal distribution to find the area.
The lower limit of the range, 4.5 hours, is 0.25 hours less than the mean of 5 hours. Since the standard deviation is 15 minutes, which is equal to 0.25 hours, the lower limit is 0.25 standard deviations below the mean.
The upper limit of the range, 5.25 hours, is 0.25 hours more than the mean of 5 hours. Since the standard deviation is 15 minutes, which is equal to 0.25 hours, the upper limit is 0.25 standard deviations above the mean.
The area under the normal curve between the lower and upper limits is therefore the area under the normal curve between -0.25 and 0.25 standard deviations.
Using a table of the normal distribution, we find that the area under the normal curve between -0.25 and 0.25 is approximately 0.4772.
Thus, about 47.72% of phones have a battery life between 4.5 hours and 5.25 hours.
