The length of a rectangular park is 20 feet longer than the width of the park. If the lenght of the park is 36 feet, what is the

width of the park?

Here’s a rectangle with labels:

length = w + 20

Since we know the length is 36, we substitute that value:

36 = w + 20

To isolate w, we subtract 20 from both sides:

(36 - 20) = w + (20 - 20)

16 = w + 0

w = 16

The width is 16 feet

Hope this was useful!

What is the value of x in the equation 4 x plus 8 y equals 40, when y equals 0.8? 4.6 8.4 10 12What is the value of a in the equ
AnnZ [12046]

Answer:

1. 8.4 2. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4x + 8y = 40

when y = 0.8

4x + 8 × 0.8 = 40

4x = 40 - 8 × 0.8

4x = 40 - 6.4 = 33.6

....x = 33.6 / 4 = 8.4

2. 3a + b = 54

when b = 9

3a + 9 = 54

3a = 54 - 9

3a = 45

.....a = 45 / 3 = 15

In the diagram, DG = 15, GF = 5, EH = 12, and DE = 8. To prove that △DFE ~ △GFH by the SSS similarity theorem using the informat
lawyer [12222]

Answer: C) HF measures 4 units and GH is 2 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The SSS similarity theorem asserts that triangles are similar if the lengths of their corresponding sides are in proportion.

For triangles ΔDFE and ΔGFH:

DG equals 15, GF is 5, EH equals 12, and DE is 8.

To demonstrate the similarity of ΔDFE and ΔGFH according to the SSS similarity theorem, we require:

\frac{DF}{GF}=\frac{FE}{FH}=\frac{DE}{GH}\\\\\Rightarrow\frac{DG+GF}{GF}=\frac{FH+EH}{FH}=\frac{DE}{GH}\\\\\Rightarrow\frac{5+15}{5}=\frac{12+HF}{FH}=\frac{8}{GH}\\\\\Rightarrow\frac{20}{5}=\frac{12+HF}{FH}\ and\ \frac{20}{5}=\frac{8}{GH}\\\\\Rightarrrow4HF=12+HF\ and\ GH=\frac{8}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow3HF=12\ and\ GH=2\\\\\Rightarrow HF=4\ and\ GH=2

Thus, to confirm that △DFE is similar to △GFH utilizing the SSS similarity theorem and the data from the diagram, it is essential to establish that HF measures 4 units and GH measures 2 units.

A grocery store receives deliveries of corn from two farms, one in Iowa and the other in Ohio. Both farms produce ears of corn w
Zina [12117]

Answer:

The number of standard deviations above the mean is z_o   = 1.4607

Step-by-step explanation:

The question indicates that:

   The average weight of the corn ears from each farm is \mu=1.26

   The standard deviation for the corn ears from Iowa is \sigma_1

   The standard deviation for the corn ears from Ohio is

     \sigma_2= 0.01 + \sigma_1

     

  A randomly chosen ear of corn from Iowa weighs  x =  1.39 pounds

  The standardized score is  z = 1.645

  The weight of a randomly chosen ear of corn from Ohio measures  x_1 =  1.39\ pound

In general, the standardized score of corn weight from Iowa can be mathematically defined as:

        z  =  \frac{ 1.39 -  1.26 }{\sigma_1 }

=>     1.645 =  \frac{ 1.39 -  1.26 }{\sigma_1 }  

=>      \sigma_1 =  \frac{ 1.39 -  1.26 }{ 1.64 5}  

=>      \sigma_1  =   0.0790  

Conversely, the standardized score of corn weight from Ohio is expressed as:

         z_o  =  \frac{ 1.39 -  1.26 }{\sigma_2 }

=>     z_o=  \frac{ 1.39 -  1.26 }{0.01 + \sigma_1 }  

=>      z_o =  \frac{ 1.39 -  1.26 }{  0.089}  

=>      z_o   = 1.4607

A positive value indicates this quantity represents the number of standard deviations above the mean.

Given the values of the linear functions f (x) and g(x) in the tables, where is (f – g)(x) positive?
zzz [11984]

Upon reviewing the functions based on the tables, it is determined that (f - g)(x) is positive in the range of (–∞, 9).----------------------

For the
  • subtractive
  • function, we simply subtract the two functions, leading to:

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

It retains a
  • positive
  • value when f is greater than g, which means: f(x) > g(x).Being a linear function, one will be greater prior to the equality, while the other will take precedence afterward.
  • They intersect at x = 9.
  • If x < 9, then f(x) is greater than g(x), thus, (f - g)(x) remains positive, which indicates that the
  • required interval is:(–∞, 9)
