The dimensions are 7 inches by 17 inches.

What is the area of rectangle?

Let the length be l inches

Let the breadth be b inches

Area = l*b

We can find dimensions as shown below:

Let the length be x inches

Let the width be y inches

Area = 119 square inches

x=3+2y             (1)

Area = l*w

119 = x*y

Putting value of x

119 = (3+2y) *y

119 = 3y+2y^2

2y^2+3y-119=0

2y^2-14y+17y-119=0

2y(y-7) +17(y-7) =0

(y-7) (2y+17) =0

y=7, -17/2

y cannot be negative

so, y = 7

Putting in equation (1)

x=3+2(7)

= 3+14

= 17

Hence, the dimensions are 7 inches by 17 inches.

Using the Poisson distribution, it is found that:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by:

The parameters are:

In this problem, the mean is:

[tex]\mu = 3.2[/tex]

The probability that the company will find 2 or fewer defective products in this batch is:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3.2}3.2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0408[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3.2}3.2^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1304[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-3.2}3.2^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2087[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0408 + 0.1304 + 0.2087 = 0.3799[/tex]

There is a 0.3799 = 37.99% probability that the company will find 2 or fewer defective products in this batch.

The probability that 4 or more defective products are found in this batch is:

[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4)[/tex]

In which:

P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3).

Then:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-3.2}3.2^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.2226[/tex]

P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0408 + 0.1304 + 0.2087 + 0.2226 = 0.6025

[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4) = 1 - 0.6025 = 0.3975[/tex]

There is a 0.3975 = 39.75% probability that 4 or more defective products are found in this batch.

For 5 or more, the probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5)[/tex]

In which:

P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4).

P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.0408 + 0.1304 + 0.2087 + 0.2226 + 0.1781 = 0.7806

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5) = 1 - 0.7806 = 0.2194[/tex]

The simple annual interest rate for the $ 525 loan is equal to 46.35 %.

In this situation we assume that the loan does not accumulate interests continuously in time. Hence, the interest rate for paying the loan back 75 days later is:

575 = 525 · (1 + r/100)

50 = 525 · r /100

5000 = 525 · r

One tree is 31.044 m taller than the other one in height.

Given Information and Formula Used:

The distance between the trees, BC (from the figure) = 120 m

Elevation of angles to the top of the trees,

∠AMB = 52°

∠DMC = 36°

In a right angled triangle,

tan x = Perpendicular/Height

Here, x is the angle opposite to the Perpendicular.

Calculating the Height Difference:

Let's compute the height of the taller tree first.

In ΔAMB,

tan 52° = AB / BM

Now, since M is the point halfway between the trees,

BM = CM = BC/2

BM = CM = 60 m

⇒ 1.2799 = AB / 60

AB = 1.2799 × 60

Thus, the height of the taller tree, AB =  76.794 m

Now, we will compute the height of the smaller tree.

In ΔDCM,

tan 36° = DC / CM

⇒ 0.7625 = DC / 60

DC = 0.7625 × 60

Thus, the height of the smaller tree, DC = 45.75 m

The difference in the heights of the trees, AP = AB - DC

AP = (76.794 - 45.75)m

AP = 31.044m

Hence one tree is 31.044m taller in height than the other.

The measure of the angle x is 77 degrees if two lines are parallel to each other or p ll q option (A) is correct.

Lines that intersect at a right angle are named perpendicular lines. Lines that are always the same distance apart from each other are known as parallel lines.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

We have two lines that are parallel to each other or p ll q

The angle made by transversal t is 136 degrees

The measure of the other angle = 180 - 136 = 44 degrees

Draw a line parallel to p and q and passes through the intersection point of line t and v

The angle made by the transversal and the line drawn is the same as 44 degrees.

The measure of the other angle = 121 - 44 = 77 degrees

Thus, the measure of the angle x is 77 degrees if two lines are parallel to each other or p ll q option (A) is correct.

Answer:

About 68% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.64 and $1.82.

About 99.7% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.45 and $2.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

To verify the given intervals, we need to calculate the standard error of the mean (SE) for a sample size of 50 using the population mean and standard deviation provided.

The standard error of the mean (SE) can be calculated as:

SE = population standard deviation / √(sample size)

Given that the population mean is $1.73 and the population standard deviation is $0.657, and the sample size is 50:

SE = $0.657 / √50 ≈ $0.09299 (rounded to 5 decimal places)

Now, we can calculate the intervals:

For the interval where about 68% of the sample means fall:

Interval = (Mean - 1 * SE, Mean + 1 * SE)

Interval = ($1.73 - $0.09299, $1.73 + $0.09299)

Interval ≈ ($1.63701, $1.82299)

So, about 68% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.64 and $1.82, which matches the given statement.

For the interval where about 99.7% of the sample means fall:

Interval = (Mean - 3 * SE, Mean + 3 * SE)

Interval = ($1.73 - 3 * $0.09299, $1.73 + 3 * $0.09299)

Interval ≈ ($1.54703, $1.91297)

So, about 99.7% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.55 and $1.91, which is different from the given statement.

The correct interval for about 99.7% of the sample means, rounded to the nearest hundredth, is $1.55 and $1.91, not $1.45 and $2.01 as mentioned in the statement.

There is a length of 5 between all numbers, meaning that 5 is added to each number to get the next one.

I hope this helps!

The number of people who can go to the game only on Sunday by applying the concept of set theory is equal to 5.

Total number of people for a trip to a baseball game = 15

Number of people planning to go on Saturday = 10

Number of people planning to go Sunday = 12

Let x be the number of people who can go on both Saturday and Sunday.

Then, the number of people who can go only on Saturday is 10 - x.

And the number of people who can go only on Sunday is 12 - x.

Total of 15 people are going to the baseball game.

Using set theory we have,

Number of people going on Saturday only + number of people going on Sunday only + number of people going on both = 15

Substitute the value we have,

⇒(10 - x) + (12 - x) + x = 15

Simplifying the above equation, we get,

⇒22 - x = 15

⇒ x = 7

The number of people who can only go to the game on Sunday is

= 12 - x

= 12 - 7
