One side of a triangular garden is x feet long. The other two sides of the garden are both 5 feet less than twice the length of

the first side of the garden.
Part A: Write a simpiflied expression for perimeter, in feet, of the garden.
A fence is placed along the entire perimeter of the triangular garden. The roll of fencing is 40 ft long.
Part B: Write a simplified expression to show the amount of fencing, in feet, which is left from the roll of fencing.

A:  If the 1st side of the garden is x feet long then the other sides are 2x - 5.  The perimeter is simply the measure of the distance around the triangle, so the length of all three sides added up.  So the equation to find the perimeter (p) would be...

p = x + (2x+5) + (2x+5)
or
p = x + 2(2x+5)

This is actually an equation so the expression to represent perimeter would simply be...

x + 2(2x+5)

B:  Since we know the equation for the perimeter and we know that we have 40 feet of fencing, then the equation to find the left over fencing would just be the length of fencing minus the perimeter...

40 - x + 2(2x+5) = the leftover amount of fencing

so the expression is...

40 - x + 2(2x+5)

Answer:

-7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line, you need to find the \frac{rise}{run} between two points. I will be using the points (-3, 5) and (7, -2).

\frac{rise}{run} = \frac{-2-5}{7-(-3)}

     = \frac{-7}{10}

     = -7/10

Mr. pham wrote the equation below on the board.
valkas [14]

18 - 7x = -20.5

Subtract 18 from each side:

-7x = -38.5

Divide both sides by -7:

x = -38.5 / -7

x = -5.5 = 5 1/2

The answer is D.

An operations analyst counted the number of arrivals per minute at an ATM in each of 30 randomly chosen minutes. The results wer
liraira [26]

Step-by-step explanation:

since Poisson distribution parameter is not given so we have to estimate it from the sample data. The average number of of arrivals per minute at an ATM is

\hat{\lambda}=\bar{x}=\frac{\sum x}{n}=\frac{30}{30}=1

So probabaility for \mathrm{X}=1 is

P(X=1)=\frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^{x}}{x !}=\frac{e^{-1} \cdot 1^{1}}{1 !}=0.3679

So expected frequency for X=1 is 0.3679^{*} 30=11.037 (or \left.11.04\right) .
