The area of the garden is 150 ft squared

Explanation:
The formula for perimeter is Length+length+width+width = 50 ft (in this case the perimeter is 50 ft, as stated in the question). We also know that the width of the garden is 10, so length + length + 10 + 10 = 50. Next we can turn it into an algebraic equation to find the length : x + x + 10 + 10 = 50

Solve the equation:
1) combine like terms
2x + 20 = 50

2) We want to isolate x by moving all of the other numbers to the other side of the equation. Since 20 is the only other number on the left side, we subtract 20 from both sides
2x + 20 - 20 = 50 - 20
2x = 30

3) Now, to find x, we want to just have one x on the left side instead of two, so we divide the equation by two to find that
2x/2 = 30/2
x = 15

Now we know that the length is 15 ft, and the width is 10 ft. Since the formula for finding area is length x width, we do 15 x 10 to get 150. Therefore, the area is 150 ft squared.

Have a nice day

The expression below is the factorization of what trinomial-1(x+5)(x+6)
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

-x^2 - 11x -30

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using foiling. Ignore the -1 to begin with and just look at the part in parenthesis. Do x from the first parenthesis times the stuff in the second parenthesis.

ie: x(x) and x(6)

ie: x^2 + 6x

Then do the 5 times the things in the second parenthesis.

ie: 5(x) and 5(6)

ie: 5x + 30

Then add what you got from multiplying the first value to what you got from multiplying the second.

ie: x^2 + 11x + 30

This is a trinomial because it has three different variables. Now change all the signs to negative because of the -1 out front.

ie: -x^2 - 11x -30

Which statement about different pairs of angles could be used to prove two lines are parallel
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The third is if the alternate exterior angles, the angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines, are equal, then the lines are parallel. And, fourth is to see if either the same side interior or same side exterior angles are supplementary or add up to 180 degrees. :)

What are the intercept of 2X+3y= 6z=30
sattari [20]

The intercepts of the given equations is as given in the task content is; Choice B; (15,0,0),(0,10,0) ,(0,0,5).

<h3>What are the intercepts of the equation as give in the task content?</h3>

The x-intercept of the given equation can be determined by setting values of y and z to zero.

The y-intercept can be determined by setting x and z to zero.

While the z-intercept can be determined by setting x and y to zero.

Consequently, the X-intercept of the given equations is; 2x +3(0) = 30; x = 15.

Therefore, we have; (15,0,0)

The y-intercept is therefore; 2(0) +3y = 30; 3y = 30; y = 30/3 = 10 and. we have; (0,15,0)

And hence, the z-intercept is; z = 30/6 = 5.

Suppose that an experiment has five possible outcomes, which are denoted {1,2,3,4,5}. Let A be the event {1,3,4} and let B be th
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

a. P(A) = P(B)

c. P(A) = 1 - P(B)

a and c are true . The rest are false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events A and B are said to be <u>equally likely </u> when one event is as likely to occur as the other. In other words each event should occur in equal number in repeated trials. For example when a fair coin is tossed the head is likely to appear as the tail, and the proportion of times each side is expected to appear is 1/2.

So when the events A= {1,3,4} B = {2,4,5} are equally likely then suppose their probability is 1/2.

a. P(A) = P(B)   <u>True</u>

1/2= 1/2

b. P(A) = 2P(B)  <u>False</u>

<u>1/2 is not equal to 1</u>

c. P(A) = 1 - P(B) <u>  True</u>

1/2= 1-1/2= 1/2

d. P(A) + P(B) > 1   False

1/2 + 1/2 is not greater than 1

e. P(A) - P(B) < 0   False

1/2-1/2= 0  is not less than 0

f. P(A) - P(B) > 1   False

1/2-1/2= 0 is not greater than 1
