Given ratio of the width of Francois's wife's vegetable garden to its length is 5:8.

Let l1,w1 be the length and width of Francois's wife's vegetable garden.

Then \frac{w1}{l1}  = \frac{5}{8}

Given ratio of the width of the herb garden to its length is 3:5.

Let l2,w2 be the length and width of herb garden.

That is \frac{w2}{l2} = \frac{3}{5}

Given that length of the herb garden is same as the width of the vegetable garden.

That is l2=w1 let this common value be x.

So, first ratio is \frac{x}{l1}=\frac{5}{8}

l1 = \frac{8x}{5}

Second ratio is \frac{w2}{x} = \frac{3}{5}

w2 = \frac{3x}{5}

perimeter of vegetable garden = 2(l1+w1) = 2(\frac{8x}{5} +x) = 2*\frac{13x}{5}  = \frac{26x}{5}

Perimeter of herb garden = 2(l2+w2) = 2(x+\frac{3x}{5} ) = 2*\frac{8x}{5} =\frac{16x}{5}

Given that francois has 252ft of fencing material.

That is perimeter of vegetable garden + perimeter of herb garden = 252

                                    \frac{26x}{5} +\frac{16x}{5}  = 252

                                               \frac{42x}{5} =252

                                                  x = \frac{252*5}{42} = 30 feet

So, l1 = \frac{8x}{5} = \frac{8*30}{5} = 48 feet

And w2 = \frac{3x}{5} = \frac{3*30}{5} = 18 feet

So dimensions of vegetable garden are 48ft, 30ft.

And dimensions of herb garden are 30ft,18ft.

!!URGENT!!WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! GEOMETRY DILATIONS!!! PLEASE INCLUDE EXPLANATION
Sergeu [11.5K]

Unless otherwise specified we usually assume the dilation is about the origin. That is you can tell the scale factor by the way the distance to the origin changes.

Point C, for example, is 6 units from the origin. Its image, C' is 4 units from the origin. Then the scale factor image/original is 4/6 = 2/3.

Your green question mark gets filled with 3 to make the fraction 2/3.

_____

To find the translation, pick any point on A'B'C' and find the corresponding point A'', B'', or C''. Count the squares you have to go left to get from A' to A'', for example. That will be 5 to the left. Similarly, count the squares you have to go down to get from A' to A''. That will be 4 down.

Assume the population of human body temperatures has a mean of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit as is commonly believed. Assume the stand
Dennis_Churaev [7]

The probability that the mean of a sample of 106 randomly selected humans is lower than 98.5°F is 4.85%

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Z score is given as:

z = (raw score - mean) ÷ (standard deviation/√sample size)

Given mean of 98.6°F,  standard deviation is 0.62°F, sample size = 106

For x < 98.5:

z = (98.5 - 98.6) ÷ (0.62÷√106) = -1.66

P(z < -1.66) = 0.0485

The probability that the mean of a sample of 106 randomly selected humans is lower than 98.5°F is 4.85%
