Answer:

142≤ x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : rectangle a perimeter of at least 300 ft and Length: 3ft and width formula: x+5ft.

To find : Writing an inequality for x that would give this rectangle a perimeter.

Solution : We have given length = 3 ft.

Width = x + 5 ft .

Perimeter = 300 feet .

Perimeter = 2 ( length + width ) .

Plugging the values and greater than equal to sign for at least.

300 ≤ 2( 3 + x +5).

300≤ 2( 8 +x) .

300≤ 16 + 2x

On subtracting both sides by 16.

300 -16 ≤ 2x .

284 ≤ 2x.

On dividing both sides by 2.

142≤ x.

We can say x is at least 142.

Therefore, 142≤ x.

Answer:

(x +3)² +(y -2)² = 185

(x -10)² +(y +2)² = 185

Step-by-step explanation:

One possible equation comes from using one of the points as center. The other possible equation comes from using the other point as center.

The radius can be found from the distance formula:

r² = (x2-x1)² +(y2-y1)² = (10-(-3))² +(2-(-2))² = 169 +16 = 185

The circle formula is ...

(x -h)² +(y -k)² = r² . . . . . . for center (h, k) and radius r

The above equations and the ones shown in the attachment are possibilities.

Eleanor Rigby the Sock-Eating Mutt wants to know whether topical or oral flea preventative measures are more effective for treat

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Stratified Design

Step-by-step explanation:

Eleanor Rigby's research is about, whether 'topical or oral flea preventative measures are more effective for treating fleas in dogs'

Sampling is the technique of selecting study units for conducting the research. She draws a sample of total 60 dogs suitable for her study.

Stratified sampling means sample arrangement in a structure of subgroups called 'stratas'. The stratas are similar within themselves & differ from each other. She divides sample dogs into three stratas based on their size & weight. And; similar weight & size dogs are arranged in their corresponding 'small', 'medium' or 'large' sized dogs strata. So, the dogs stratas are similar within themselves & differ from each other, in regards to their weight & size. Hence, she has used Stratified Design

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

In each bag there will be 1.82 ounces of mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Irene is making bags of trail mix for hiking club, and she will use 22 ounces of walnuts, 11.2 ounces of almonds, and 12.3 ounces of cashews to make 25 bags of trail mix, to determine how many ounces are in each bag you must perform the following calculation:

(22 + 11.2 + 12.3) / 25 = X

45.5 / 25 = X

1.82 = X

Thus, in each bag there will be 1.82 ounces of mixture.
