A square has the same area as a rectangle whose longer side is 2 times the length of its shorter
side. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 24, what
is the perimeter of the square?

A) 8 √2
B)16 √2
C)32 √2
D)32

C) 32 * 2**1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For rectangle P = L + W = 24 but L = 2W so

2W + W = 24

3W = 24

W = 8 and L = 2W = 16

A = L * W = 16 * 8 = 128

SO for the square with the same area

A = L * L = 128

L**2 = 128

L = 8 * 2**1/2

P = 4L = 32 * 2**1/2

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
