Let x be the initial width, then the initial length is x+20.
<span>If Elise decreases this length by 8 feet, she will get the new length  x+20-8=x+12.
</span>
 If Elise increases the width by 10 feet, <span>she will get the new width x+10.
</span><span>
</span><span>The new perimeter will be x+12+x+12+x+10+x+10=4x+44=172, 4x=172-44, 4x=128,  x=128÷4, x=32.
</span><span>
</span><span>The initial width is 32 ft and the initial length is 32+20=52 ft.
</span><span>
</span><span>The new width will be 32+10=42 ft, the new length will be 32+12=44 ft.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) purchased a new solar-powered battery guaranteed to have a failure rate
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The probability that all three batteries would fail is given as:

= 0.000125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the probability of the new battery failing = 1/20 or 0.05,

Therefore, the probability that all three batteries would fail is given as:

= Probability of battery A failing * Probability of battery B failing * Probability of battery C failing

= P(A)*P(B)*P(C)

= 0.05 * 0.05 * 0.05

= 0.000125

mrs_skeptik [129]

Put the value of x = -1 to the equation of a function f(x):

f(x)=\dfrac{2}{3}\times3^{3x+12}\\\\f(-1)=\dfrac{2}{3}\times3^{3(-1)+12}=\dfrac{2}{3}\times3^{-3+12}=\dfrac{2}{3}\times3^9=\dfrac{2}{1}\times3^8=13,122\to\boxed{B.}
