8 0

Answer:

Dimensions are 20 X 44 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to build two equations:

For area X times Y = 880

For Perimeter 2x + 2y = 128

Now we need to solve one so we can substitute it into the other:

2x + 2y = 128 becomes

2x = 128 - 2y and then

x = 64 - y We will substitute this into the are equation

(64 - y)y = 880

64y - y^{2} = 880

-y^{2} + 64y -880 = 0

factor out the negative

-(y^{2} - 64y +880 = 0

Factor:

-(y - 20)(y - 44) = 0

y-20 = 0 and y - 44 = 0

y = 20 and y = 44

Plugging these in two both of our formulas works

20 X 44 = 880 for area

2(20) + 2 (44) = 128 for perimeter

fomenos

Answer:

0.37

Step-by-step explanation:

we have given that emails arrives at the server at the rate of 10 per hour means \frac{10}{60}=0.166  per minute

we have to find the probability that the time difference between the two email is more than 2 minute

so probability P\left ( X> 2 \right )=e^{-2\lambda }=e^{-2\times 0.166}=0.7166
