Nidhi is creating a rectangular garden in her backyard. The length of the garden is 10 feet. The perimeter of the garden must be

at least 40 feet and no more than 76 feet. Use a compound inequality to find the range of values for the width w of the garden.

Answer:

The range of width is 10 ≤ W ≤ 28

Step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the meaning of compound inequality

- If x is greater than a and x is smaller than b, then x is between a and b

∵ x > a and x < b

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ a < x < b

# Ex: ∵ x > -2 and x < 10

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ -2 < x < 10

- If x is greater than or equal a and x is smaller than or equal b, then

 x is from a and b

∵ x ≥ a and x ≤ b

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ a ≤ x ≤ b

# Ex: ∵ x ≥ -2 and x ≤ 10

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ -2 ≤ x ≤ 10

* Now lets solve the problem

- The garden in the shape of a rectangle with dimensions length (L)

 and width (W)

- The length of the garden is 10 feet

- The perimeter (P) of the garden is at least 40 feet and not more than

  76 feet

∵ L = 10 feet

∵ P = 2L + 2W

- At least means greater than or equal (≥) and not more than means

 smaller than or equal (≤)

∴ P ≥ 40 feet

∴ P ≤ 76 feet

- lets use the rule of the perimeter

∴ 2(10) + 2(W) ≥ 40 ⇒ simplify

∴ 20 + 2W ≥ 40 ⇒ subtract 20 from both sides

∴ 2W ≥ 20 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ W ≥ 10 ⇒ (1)

- Do similar with P ≤ 76

∴ 2(10) + 2(W) ≤ 76 ⇒ simplify

∴ 20 + 2W ≤ 76 ⇒ subtract 20 from both sides

∴ 2W ≤ 56 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ W ≤ 28 ⇒ (2)

- From (1) and (2)

∴ 10 ≤ W ≤ 28 ⇒ compound inequality

* The range of the width is from 10 feet to 28 feet

Use technology or a z-score table to answer the question.
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the z-score.

z = (x - μ) / σ

z = (520 - 500) / 60

z = 0.33

Using a calculator or z-score table:

P(z < 0.33) = 0.6293

The probability is approximately 63%.  Answer C

ABC is formed by two tangents intersecting outside of a circle. If minor arc AC = 98°, what is the measure of ∠ABC?
gregori [183]
It's 82 degrees. Subtract your minor arc (98) by 360 to get your major arc, which is 262. Then, subtract 98 (minor arc) from 262 (major arc), which gives you 164. Finally, divide 164 by 2 to get angle ABC.

the measure of ∠D is 5 times the measure of ∠E the two angles are supplemanty find the measure of each angle
hammer [34]
Because the angles are supplementary, they add to 180 degrees.

I solved this by dividing \frac{180}{6} which gives me 30 degrees.

multiply 30 by 5 gives you 150.

and 30 + 150 = 180
