Dimensions of the rectangle are defined as Length=2x
Width=x
The formula for perimeter is given by 2(Length) + 2(Width).

First, we need to determine the dimensions of the rectangle, specifically its length and width.

We can derive this equation:
24=2(2x)+2(x)
4x+2x=24
6x=24
x=24/6
x=4

Consequently, Length becomes 2x, leading to 2(4)=8.

Therefore, the length is 8 inches and the width is 4 inches.

Next, we will calculate the area of the rectangle.
The area can be computed as Length multiplied by Width.

Area=(8 in)(4 in)=32 in²

Conclusion: The area of Marshall's rectangular poster is 32 in².

The probability that a randomly selected person has high blood pressure (the event H) is P(H) = 0.3 and the probability that a r
Svet_ta [4341]

Answer:

The likelihood of selecting an individual with high blood pressure who is also a runner is 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the data provided:

P( Choosing someone with high blood pressure )  =  0.3

or stated as P(H)  = 0.3

P( Choosing a runner )  =  0.4

or stated as P(R)  = 0.4

Now, P( Selecting a person with high blood pressure as well as being a runner)  = 0.2

⇒ P(H∩ R)  = 0.2

Next, we want to calculate the P(the selected individual is a runner, given they have high blood pressure)

which means we need to determine: P(R/H)

Using BAYES THEOREM:

P(R/H) = \frac{P(R\cap H)}{P(H)}

\implies P(R/H) = \frac{0.2}{0.3 } = \frac{2}{3}

So, the chance of choosing a person with high blood pressure who is a runner stands at 2/3.

The measure of central angle QRS is StartFraction 8 pi Over 9 EndFraction radians. What is the area of the shaded sector? 36Pi u
babunello [3666]

The illustration is omitted. Please see the attachment below.

Answer:

The area of the shaded sector is 144π square units.

Step-by-step breakdown:

Given:

The central angle for the sector is, \theta=\frac{8\pi}{9}\ rad

The circle's radius is, R=18\ units

The area of a sector with radius 'R' and angle \theta can be determined with:

A=\frac{1}{2}R^2\theta

Substituting \theta=\frac{8\pi}{9},R=18 gives

A=\frac{1}{2}\times (18)^2\times \frac{8\pi}{9}\\\\A=(\frac{324\times 4}{9})\pi\\\\A=(36\times 4)\pi\\\\A=144\pi\ units^2

Thus, the area of the shaded sector calculates to 144π square units.

Zina [3917]

Answer:

C. The mean daily salary is not above $350 per day

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation is displayed below:

Y = a + bX

where,

Y = earnings of a randomly chosen agent

a = $150

b = $50

X = number of loans closed

Now

E(x) = (1 × 0.05) + (2 × 0.10) + (3 × 0.22) + (4 × 0.30) + (5 × 0.18) + (6 × 0.12) + (7 × 0.03)

= 3.94

Consequently,

E(y) = $150 + ($50 × 3.94)

= $347

therefore, option C is incorrect

12x+7<−11 AND5x−8≥4012
Svet_ta [4341]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 12x+7 and  5x-8\geq 40

Handle each inequality separately.

12x+7              Utilizing the subtraction property of inequalities

12x

12x

x

x

and

5x-8\geq 40               Utilizing the addition property of inequalities

5x\geq 40+8

5x\geq 48

x\geq \dfrac{48}{5}

Thus, the solution to the combined inequality is the overlap of both solutions.

Refer to the attached image for the number line representation.
