Given:
Triangular garden
smallest side: x
medium side: x + 5ft
largest side: 2x - 6ft
Perimeter: 47 ft.

Perimeter = smallest side + medium side + largest side
47 ft = x + x + 5ft + 2x - 6ft
47 ft - 5ft + 6ft = 4x
48ft = 4x
48ft / 4 = 4x / 4
12 ft = x

smallest side: x = 12 feet
medium side: x + 5ft = 12ft + 5ft = 17 ft
largest side: 2x - 6ft = 2(12ft) - 6ft = 24ft - 6ft  = 18ft

Perimeter: smallest + medium + largest
47ft = 12ft + 17ft + 18ft
47ft = 47ft

What should your units on your base area calculations be, and why? How is this different from the units on your volume calculati
horsena [70]

Answer:

For area, square unit is used as the area is calculated using two dimensions length and breadth.

For volume, cubic unit is used as the volume is calculated using three dimensions length, breadth and height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area refers to the space occupied by a two dimensional flat object in a plane. For area, square unit is used as the area is calculated using two dimensions length and breadth.

Volume is defined as the space occupied by the three-dimensional object. For volume, cubic unit is used as the volume is calculated using three dimensions length, breadth and height.

Assume the random variable x is normally distributed with mean u = 90 and standard deviation o=5. Find the indicated probability
Setler79 [48]

<u>Given</u>:

Let the random variable x is normally distributed with mean \mu=90 and \sigma=5

We need to determine the probability of P(X

<u>Probability of </u>P(X<u>:</u>

The formula to determine the value of P(X is given by

Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

Thus, we have;

P(X

Simplifying, we get;

P(X

P(X

Using the normal distribution table, the value of -2 is given by 0.0228

P(X

Thus, the value of P(X is 0.0228
