A farmer needs to fence a rectangular plot of land with the area of 3000 square yards. He considers several possible length of the plot: 50 yards, 40 yards, 48 yards, and 36 yards. What will be the width of the plot in each case? Do the length and the width of the rectangular plot vary directly or inversely when the same area is needed? Explain why.
Answer:
If the length is 50 yd, the width is
yd.
If the length is 40 yd, the width is
yd.
If the length is 48 yd, the width is
yd.
If the length is 36 yd, the width is
yd.
The length and the width vary .

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

If the length is 50 yd, the width is  60 yd.

If the length is 40 yd, the width is  75 yd.

If the length is 48 yd, the width is  62.5 yd.

If the length is 36 yd, the width is 83.33 yd.

The length and the width vary inversely because when the length decreased the width increased

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of any rectangle A = L × W, where

L is its lengthW is its width

The relation is direct proportion if the quotient of two quantity equals constant  (y/x = k, when y and x increased) and inverse if the product of the two quantity equals constant (yx = k, when x increased y decreased and vice versa)  

∵ The area of the rectangular plot of land = 3000 yards²

∴ A = 3000

∵ Its length = 50 yards

∴ L = 50

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 50 × W

→ Divide both sides by 50 to find W

∴ 60 = W

The width of the plot is 60 yards

∵ Its length = 40 yards

L = 40

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 40 × W

→ Divide both sides by 40 to find W

∴ 75 = W

The width of the plot is 75 yards

∵ Its length = 48 yards

L = 48

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 48 × W

→ Divide both sides by 48 to find W

∴ 62.5 = W

The width of the plot is 62.5 yards

∵ Its length = 36 yards

L = 36

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find W

∵ 3000 = 36 × W

→ Divide both sides by 36 to find W

∴ 83. 33 = W

The width of the plot is  83.33 yards

∵ The area is a constant value

∵ A = LW

→ The product of L and W equals the constant value, can you discover

   that from the values of L and W

∴  The length and the width of the rectangular plot vary inversely

Answer 2

The length and the width of the rectangular plot vary  inversely when the same area is needed.

Area of Rectangle:

Area of rectangular plot [tex]=length *width[/tex]

Given that, Area of plot is 3000 square yards.

If the length is 50 yards. Then,

             [tex]width=\frac{3000}{50} =60yd[/tex]

If the length is 40 yards. Then,

            [tex]width=\frac{3000}{40}=75yd[/tex]

If the length is 48 yards. Then,

            [tex]width=\frac{3000}{48}=62.5yd[/tex]

If the length is 36 yards. Then,

           [tex]width=\frac{3000}{36}=83.34yd[/tex]

g The average lifespan for a certain type of vehicle is 8 years and follows an exponential distribution. A lot contains 200 of these vehicles, brand new. What is the probability that 50 or more of them fail in the first 2 years

Answers

Answer:

The probability is [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 0.14321[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The average life span is  [tex]\pi = 8[/tex]

The sample size is n =  200

Generally we are told that average lifespan for a certain type of vehicle follows an exponential distribution

i.e  

             [tex]X \~ \ \ \ exp(8)[/tex]

Gnerally the probability distribution function for exponential distribution is

       [tex]f(x) = \left \{ {{\lambda * e^{-\lambda * x }\ \ \ x\ge 0 } \atop {0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x < 0}} \right.[/tex]

Now [tex]\lambda[/tex] is the  constant which is evaluated as

      [tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{\pi}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\lambda = 0.125[/tex]

Generally the that the vehicles will fail in less than 2 years is  mathematically represented as

         [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= \int\limits^2_0 {\lambda e^{- \lambda * x} } \, dx[/tex]

        [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= [ {0.125 * - \frac{1}{0.125 } e^{- 0.125 * x} } ]|\left 2 } \atop {0}} \right.[/tex]

       [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= [ {0.125 * - \frac{1}{0.125 } e^{- 0.125 * 2} } ] - [ {0.125 * - \frac{1}{0.125 } e^{- 0.125 * 0} } ][/tex]

     [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= -0.77880 + 1[/tex]

     [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= 0.2212[/tex]

Generally the probability that the vehicle will fail in the first 2 years follows a binomial  distribution  with the mean evaluated as

         [tex]\mu = n * p[/tex]

=>      [tex]\mu = 200 * 0.2212[/tex]

=>      [tex]\mu = 44.24[/tex]

The standard deviation is

       [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1 - p)}[/tex]    

      [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{200 * 0.2212 (1 - 0.2212)}[/tex]  

      [tex]\sigma = 5.86[/tex]

Using normal approximation of binomial  distribution the  probability that 50 or more of them fail in the first 2 years is mathematically represented as

   [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 1 - P(A < 50 )[/tex]

Applying continuity correction

    [tex]P(A \ge 50.5 ) = 1 - P(A < 50.5 )[/tex]

Here

    [tex]P(A < 50.5 ) = P(\frac{A - \mu }{\sigma} < \frac{50 - 44.24}{5.87} )[/tex]

Generally  

       [tex]\frac{A - \mu }{\sigma} = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of A )[/tex]

=> [tex]P(A < 50.5 ) = P( Z < 1.0664 )[/tex]

From the z-table the probability value  of  ( Z  <  1.0664   ) is  

     [tex]P( Z < 1.0664 ) = 0.85679[/tex]

So  

   [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 1 - 0.85679[/tex]

=> [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 0.14321[/tex]

I can't solve this problem: 47 x 98= ( ? x 47)-(2 x 47)

Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

2 and -49

Step-by-step explanation:

2 x -49 = -98

2 + (-49) = -47

x2 - 47x - 98 = 0

The solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(X + 2 ) (X - 49)

Since 2 and -49 multiply to -98 and add up -47, you know that the following is true:

x2 - 47x - 98 = (X + 2 ) (X - 49)

a maple tree shades an area of 7 1/2 m square. in the scale drawing, the maple tree shades an area of 12 1/2 cm square. in the scale drawing how many square centimeters represents 1 m squared

Answers

The number of centimeter squares in the scale drawing for each 1 m squared is 1.67.

What is Scale factor?

The scale factor is a type of measurement which is used to increase or decrease the size of an object keeping its shape as the same. It can be determined by taking the ratio of the new and the original dimension of the object.

Given that,

The area shaded by a maple tree is 7(¹/₂) m².

And, the area shaded in scale drawing is 12(¹/₂) cm².

The required  number of square centimeters can be found by dividing the two areas as follows,

12(¹/₂) / 7(¹/₂)

= (25/2)/(15/2)

= 25 / 15

= 5 / 3

= 1.67

Hence, the number of centimeter squares in the scale area is 1.67.

The amount of milk that the bakery used this month was a 75% decrease relative to last month. What is the new amount of milk using percent?

Answers

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

the answers

The new amount of milk using percent is 25.

How to find the percentage from the total value?

Suppose the value of which a thing is expressed in percentage is "a'

Suppose the percent that considered thing is of "a" is b%

Then the percent shows per 100 (since cent means 100), thus we will first divide the whole part in 100 parts and then we multiply it with b so that we collect b items per 100 items(that is exactly what b per cent means).

We are given that the amount of milk that the bakery used this month was a 75% decrease relative to last month.

Therefore, for last month, we have a rectangle with four equal areas 75% decrease,

we have to remove 3 areas to make the remaining = 25%

So, the difference will give a 75% decrease
