The perimeter of a parallelogram is 56 meters the width of the parallelogram is 8 meters less than its length find the length of
Dimas [21]

Answer:

length = 18 mt

Width = 10 mt

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the field be x

width of the field be y

Hence

P=2(x+y)

P=56 (given)

56=2(x+y)

Dividing both sides by 2 we get

x+y=28   ---(A)

Also given that width of the parallelogram is 8 meters less than its length

Hence

y=x-8

or x-y=8   ---(B)

Adding A and B

2x=36

x=18

y=x-8

y=18-8=10

Hence length = 18 mt

Width = 10 mt

The average lifetime of a set of tires is 3.4 years. The manufacturer will replace any set of tires failing within three years o
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is 0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

The average lifetime of a set of tires is 3.4 years. It means that μ = 3.4

Decay parameter, m = 1/3.4 = 0.294

The probability density function is

f(x) = me^-mx

Where x is a continuous random variable representing the time interval of interest(the reliability period that we are testing)

Since x = 3 years,

Therefore, the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is

f(3) = 0.294e^-(0.294 × 3)

f(3) = 0.294e^- 0.882

f(3) = 0.12

Michael is making a card for his dad's birthday. He's shaded a triangular section on the card where he wants to write his dad a
artcher [175]

Answer:

Option C (72)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached we can see a rectangle ABCD with length 12 cm and width 9 cm.

A  triangle PEF with height BE and base EF.

Since side AE = 3 cm, so side EB = EC = 9 - 3 = 6cm

and EF = AD = 12 cm

Now we will find the area of of the parts of the card that are not shaded.

Area of parts that are not shaded = Area of rectangle - area of shaded triangle

= (12×9) -

= 108 -

Option c) 72 cm² is the area of non shaded part.

Hope this helps!! -Mina

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS MATH QUESTION PLEASE FILL ALL BLANKS
maxonik [38]

Answer:

  1. 1/3
  2. y-axis
  3. (1, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The length AC is 3, but the corresponding length FD is 1, so the dilation factor is FD/AC = 1/3.

The reflection is a left/right reflection, so it is across a vertical line. We suspect the only vertical line you are interested in is the y-axis. (It could be reflected across x=1/2, and then the only translation would be downward.)

The above transformations will put C' at (1, 0). Since the corresponding point D is at (2, -2), we know it is C' is translated by (1, -2) to get to D.

  C' + translation = D

  (1, 0) +(1, -2) = (2, -2)
