The area of a rectangle is 44 ft², and the
Length of the rectangle is 3 ft less than twice
The width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Width = 5.5ft, Length = 8ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Rectangle = Length x Width

Let w be the Width of the rectangle.

From the information given from the question,

Length = 2w - 3 (3ft less than twice the width)

Area of Rectangle = [tex](2w-3)w\\=2w^{2} -3w[/tex] = 44

Now we can solve for w to find the dimensions.

[tex]2w^{2} -3w-44=0[/tex] (Quadratic Equations)

We can use the Quadratic formula to find w.

[tex]w=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

Since a = 2, b = -3 and c = -44,

[tex]w=\frac{-(-3)+/-\sqrt{(-3)^{2}-4(2)(-44) } }{2(2)} \\= 5.5 or -4 (reject)[/tex]

We reject negative values here.

Therefore, the width of the Rectangle = 5.5ft

While the length of the rectangle = 2(5.5) - 3 = 11 - 3 = 8ft

You must solve x and then y in that order. The reason for that is there are 2 x values and they can be equated to each other. The you can go after the y value, since they are supplement with the value you get from the first operation.

Equations

x + 45 = 2x+ 8

<3 + y + 30 = 180

Solution

<1 and <3 are equal             Two vertically opposite angles are always =.

x  +  45 = 2x + 8                    Subtract x from both sides

x-x + 45 = 2x - x + 8              Combine

45 = x + 8                              Subtract 8 from both sides

45 - 8 = x + 8 - 8                   Combine

37 = x

<1 + <2 = 180                        These two angles sit on the same straight line and have a side in common

x + 45 + y + 30 = 180           Substitute for x

37 + 45 + y + 30 = 180         Combine

112 + y = 180                         Subtract 112 from both sides

112-112 + y = 180 - 112           Combine

y = 68

You are loading a rental truck with 78-pound boxes and have

Explain why you answered yes or no and show all work.

Answers

Answer:

13200 needs to be less than 78*60+8840,

which is false because 13200 < 13520

Step-by-step explanation:

The truck cannot load 60 boxes as it exceeds the weight limit.

What is Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides. LHS = RHS is a common mathematical formula.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given:

W=78b+8840

So, b= 60

W= 78 x 66 + 8840

W = 5148 +8840

W = 13988 > 13200 ( limit for the weight)

Hence, the truck cannot load 60 boxes as it exceeds the weight limit.

B. Solve this equation and take note of any extraneous solutions. Explain why the answer is extraneous, and clearly state the correct answer

Answers

The size of the corner you need to cut in order for your box to have this area is 0.5 inches

Part 1: A. Express the new length of the long side of the note card, once the two corners are removed.

The base length is given as:

Length = 7

When the edges are removed, the new length becomes

New length = 7 - x - x

Evaluate

New length = 7 - 2x

Part 1: B. Express the new width of the short side of the note card, once the two corners are removed.

The base width is given as:

Width = 4

When the edges are removed, the new length becomes

New width = 4 - x - x

Evaluate

New width = 4 - 2x

Part 2: Write a function A(x) that defines the area of the bottom of the box, once the corners are removed and the sides are folded up.

The area of the bottom of the box is calculated as:

Area = New length * New width

This gives

Area = (7 - 2x) * (4 - 2x)

Rewrite as:

A(x) = (7 - 2x) * (4 - 2x)

Part 3: Set up an equation in standard form that will help you find the size (x)

The area is given as:

Area = 16

So, we have:

(7 - 2x) * (4 - 2x) = 16

Expand

28 - 14x - 8x + 4x^2 = 16

Rewrite as

4x^2 - 14x - 8x + 28 - 16 = 0

Evaluate the like terms

4x^2 - 22x + 12= 0

Part 3: Solve this equation and take note of any extraneous solutions

We have:

4x^2 - 22x + 12= 0

Expand the equation

4x^2 - 24x - 2x + 12 = 0

Factorize the equation

4x(x - 6) - 2(x - 6) = 0

Factor out x - 6

(4x - 2)(x - 6) = 0

Solve for x

x = 0.5 or x = 6

The value of x = 6 is too big for the dimensions of the box.

So, x = 6 is an extraneous solution for the equation

Hence, the size of the corner you need to cut in order for your box to have this area is 0.5 inches

A Food Marketing Institute found that 29% of households spend more than $125 a week on groceries. Assume the population proportion is 0.29 and a simple random sample of 207 households is selected from the population. What is the probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31?
There is a ___ probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31. Round the answer to 4 decimal places.

Answers

Using the normal distribution, there is a 0.7357 = 73.57% probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, for a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}[/tex], as long as [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) \geq 10[/tex].

The estimate and the sample size are:

p = 0.29, n = 207.

Hence the mean and the standard error are given as follows:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.29[/tex].[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.29(0.71)}{207}} = 0.0315[/tex].

The probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31 is the p-value of Z when X = 0.31, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.31 - 0.29}{0.0315}[/tex]

Z = 0.63

Z = 0.63 has a p-value of 0.7357.

0.7357 = 73.57% probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31.

Find the equation of the function that gives a rider's height above the ground in meters as a function of time, in seconds, with the rider starting at the bottom of the wheel.

Please use math tools to state your answer - see hint. Or attach your work as ONE easy to read file.

Answers

The equation of the function that gives a rider's height above the ground in meters as a function of time, in seconds is y(t) = 14sin(πt/8) + 1

The equation of the function that gives the height of the ferris wheel

Since the motion of the ferris wheel is periodic,it follows a sinusoidal function form.

So, the general form of a sine function y(t) is

y(t) = Asin(2πt/T) + K where

A = amplitude, T = period, t = time and K = vertical shift

Now since radius of 7m, the maximum value from its lowest point is at y = 2r + 1 = 2 × 7 + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15 at sin(2πt/T) = 1 which is the maximum value for sinФ = 1.

Since the bottom of the wheel is 1m above the ground, its minimum value is y = 1 at t = 0.

Also, it rotates once every 16 seconds, so its period T = 16 s.

So, y(t) = Asin(2πt/T) + K

y(t) = Asin(2πt/16) + K

y(t) = Asin(πt/8) + K

At maximum value

15 = Asin(πt/8) + K

15 = A + K  (1)

At minimum value

1 = Asin(πt/8) + K

1 = A(0) + K  

1 = 0 + K

K = 1

Substituting K into (1), we have

15 = A + 1

15 - 1 = A

14 = A

A = 14

So, y(t) = Asin(πt/8) + K

y(t) = 14sin(πt/8) + 1

So, the equation of the function that gives a rider's height above the ground in meters as a function of time, in seconds, with the rider starting at the bottom of the wheel is y(t) = 14sin(πt/8) + 1
