Arectangle has an area of (x2 − 17x + 72) square units. since the area of a rectangle is determined using the formula, a = lw, what could be the length and width of the rectangle?

length = (x − 8) units and width = (x − 9) units
length = (x + 9) units and width = (x + 8) units
length = (x − 6) units and width = (x − 12) units
length = (x + 12) units and width = (x + 6) units

Little’s law firm has just one lawyer. customers arrive randomly at an average rate of 6 per 8 hour workday. service times have a mean of 50 minutes and a standard deviation of 20 minutes. how long does a customer spend at little’s law firm on average?

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x): x f(x) −1 −5 0 −1 1 3 g(x) g(x) = 2x − 7 part a: write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x). (6 points) part b: which function has a greater y-intercept? justify your answer. (4 points)

The table shows population statistics for the ages of best actor and best supporting actor winners at an awards ceremony. the distributions of the ages are approximately bell-shaped. compare the z-scores for the actors in the following situation. best actor best supporting actor muequals42.0 muequals49.0 sigmaequals7.3 sigmaequals15 in a particular year, the best actor was 59 years old and the best supporting actor was 45 years old. determine the z-scores for each. best actor: z equals best supporting actor: z equals (round to two decimal places as needed.) interpret the z-scores. the best actor was (more than 2 standard deviations above more than 1 standard deviation above less than 1 standard deviation above less than 2 standard deviations below) the mean, which (is not, is) unusual. the best supporting actor was (less than 1 standard deviation below more than 1 standard deviation above more than 2 standard deviations below more than 1 standard deviation below) the mean, which (is is not) unusual.
