Answer:
total area of the garden and walkway = 2a² + 21a + 54
Step-by-step explanation:
The walkway surrounds the rectangular garden. The width of the garden is 9 ft and the length is 12 ft. Since the width of the walkway around the garden is the same on every side let us use a to represent the width around the garden.
The garden is rectangular and the width of the walkway around the garden is uniform. The width added on both end of the width of the rectangle will be 2a while the width added to the both length of the rectangle will be 2a also.
Therefore
total area of the garden and walkway = length × width
length of garden and the walkway = 2a + 12
width of garden and the walkway = 2a + 9
total area of the garden and walkway = (2a + 12)(2a + 9)
total area of the garden and walkway = 4a² + 18a + 24a + 108
total area of the garden and walkway = 4a² + 42a + 108
divide through by 2
total area of the garden and walkway = 2a² + 21a + 54
7 7/8
mixed number to improper fraction :
Take ur whole number (7) and multiply it by ur denominator (8)....7 x 8 = 56...now add that to ur numerator (7)....56 + 7 = 63....now put that over ur original denominator (8)...and that gives us 63/8
Using it's concept, it is found that there is a 0.001 = 0.1% probability that he will forget to brush his teeth three days in a row.
<h3>What is a probability?</h3>
A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.
In this problem, for each day, there is a 0.1 probability that he forgers to brush his teeth, and days are independent, hence for 3 consecutive days the probability is given by:
p = (0.1)³ = 0.001.
