The perimeter of a rectangle can be found using the formula P = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is the width.
Here is what we know of the rectangle:
P = 68 in
l = 3w - 2
To find the length, plug 68 for P into P = 2l + 2w, and plug 3w - 2 for l in the same formula. Then solve algebraically for w.
P = 2l + 2w
68 = 2(3w - 2) + 2w
68 = 6w - 4 + 2w
68 = 8w - 4
72 = 8w
9 = w
Now that we have w, we can plug it into 3w - 2 to find l, length.
3w - 2
3(9) - 2
27 - 2
25
That makes our length 25 inches and our width 9 inches. (Don't forget to write units!) Let's plug everything back into the formula to check our work.
68 = 2(25) + 2(9)
68 = 50 + 18
68 = 68 -- This is true
Answer:
The length of the rectangle is 25 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:
3x8=24, but in this case, you are doing exponents. So you have to do this equation
3x3x3x3x3x3x3x3=6561
Answer:
Equation of the Ellipse
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>
Given that the equation
x² + 2 x + 2y² - 12 y +11 = 0
⇒ x² + 2 x + 1 - 1 + 2(y² - 6 y )+ 11 = 0
x² + 2 x + 1 - 1 + 2(y² - 2(3) y+9-9 )+ 11 = 0
⇒ x² + 2 x + 1 - 1 + 2(y² - 2(3 y ) + 3²- 3² ) + 11 = 0
By using (a +b)² = a² + 2 a b + b²
(a -b)² = a² - 2 a b + b²
<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>
x² + 2 x + 1 - 1 + 2(y² - 2(3 y ) + 3²- 3² ) + 11 = 0
⇒ ( x+1)² +2( y-3 )² - 1 - 2(9) +11 =0
⇒ ( x+1)² +2( y-3 )² - 8 =0
( x+1)² +2( y-3 )² = 8
Dividing '8' on both sides , we get


This equation represents the Ellipse
Answer:
0.9999985 = 99.99985% probability that in a day, there will be at least 1 birth.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
is the mean in the given interval.
Assume that the mean number of births per day at this hospital is 13.4224.
This means that 
Find the probability that in a day, there will be at least 1 birth.
This is:

In which
Then

0.9999985 = 99.99985% probability that in a day, there will be at least 1 birth.
Answer:
B. y = (x + 3)^2 - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
When Andy completes the square, he adds and subtracts the square of half the x-coefficient. That is, he adds and subtracts (6/2)² = 9:
... y = x² +6x +9 -8 -9
... y = (x² +6x +9) -17
... y = (x +3)² -17 . . . . . . . . matches selection B
