X × 75% = £45
x = £45 / 75%
x = £45 / 0,75
x = £60

See Explanation Below
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete (because the figure to calculate the perimeter is missing).
However from the comment attached to your question, I understand that the figure looks like a plus sign.
The perimeter of a plane shape is calculated by adding the length of each side of the shape.
Take for instance;
A square of length 5cm.
We know that a square has 4 equal sides; meaning that the length of the other sides are also 5cm
So, the perimeter of the square will be calculated as 5cm + 5cm + 5cm + 5cm = 20cm
Similarly, the perimeter of a triangle whose sides are 4ft, 3ft and 5ft will be calculated by adding up the length of the three sides.
Perimeter of the triangle = 4ft + 3ft + 5ft
Perimeter = 12ft.
Having explained how the perimeter of a plane shape is calculated; take for example, the attachment below.
(The sides are measured in centimetres)
The plus sign has 12 sides; Its perimeter is calculated by adding up the length of the 12 sides.
Perimeter = 3 + 7 + 7 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 2 + 4 + 4 + 3
Perimeter = 52cm
(-4,5) is the correct answer because it needs to be (-y,x) meaning the original x value stays the same because we’re going backwards and the y value changes signs
Answer:
The grower should spend the $5,000, thereby reducing the profit to $95,000.
But, this is based on a 20% probability of freezing temperature during the next week.
Step-by-step explanation:
A) If freezing weather happens with a 20% chance, the profit will be reduced to $60,000.
With this probability, the probable loss will be 20% X $40,000 = $8,000.
B) If the grower can protect the fruit against freezing weather at a cost of $5,000, then she should go ahead. Doing this, the profit will be reduced to $95,000 because of the cost.
However, it is worthy to note that freezing weather happens at 20% chance. This implies that the freezing weather might not happen, 80% chance. But, prudence still demands that necessary precautions are taken, and this includes protecting the crop at a cost of $5,000.
