The dimensions of the rectangular plot of land that sits on a riverbank is 32 m by 9 m or 18 m by 16 m.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on any other variable for its value while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variable.

Let x represent the length and y represent the width. Hence:

x + 2y = 50

x = 50 - 2y

Also:

xy = 288

(50 - 2y)y = 288

y = 9; and y = 16

x = 32; and x = 18

The dimensions of the rectangular plot of land that sits on a riverbank is 32 m by 9 m or 18 m by 16 m.

How to graph f(x)=(x-2)^2+3
iris [78.8K]

Using translation concepts, the graph of f(x) = (x - 2)² + 3 is given at the end of the question.

<h3>What is a translation?</h3>

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction either in it’s definition or in it’s domain. Examples are shift left/right or bottom/up, vertical or horizontal stretching or compression, and reflections over the x-axis or the y-axis.

In this problem, we have that the parent and the translated function are given, respectively, by:

  • g(x) = x².
  • f(x) = (x - 2)² + 3.

The translations are as follows:

  • Right two units, as x -> x - 2.
  • Up 3 units, because f(x) = g(x) + 3.

Hence the graphs are given at the end of the answer, with the parent function in red and the translated function f(x) = (x - 2)² + 3 in green.

A card is drawn at random from a deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability that the card drawn is:
melomori [17]

probability that the card drawn is:

  1. an ace or a king  = 0.1538
  2. a king or a diamond = 0.3269

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , A card is drawn at random from a deck of 52 playing cards. We need to find that Find the probability that the card drawn is:

  • an ace or a king

A deck of standard 52 cards contain four aces. There are four kings in a standard deck of playing cards. So ,we need to find probability that card drawn is either a ace or king i.e.

probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{8}{52}

⇒ probability = 0.1538

  • a king or a diamond

A deck of standard 52 cards contain four kings. There are 13 Diamonds in a standard deck of playing cards. So ,we need to find probability that card drawn is either a ace or king i.e.

probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{(13+4=17)}{52}

⇒ probability = \frac{(17)}{52}

⇒ probability =0.3269

Therefore, probability that the card drawn is:

  1. an ace or a king  = 0.1538
  2. a king or a diamond = 0.3269
