Answer:

92 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the shorter side.

Let w = length of the shorter side.

$w^{2} + 30^{2} = 34^{2} \\ w^{2} + 900 = 1156\\w^{2} = 256\\w = \sqrt{256} = 16$

The perimeter is 2l + 2w = 2(30) + 2(16) = 60 + 32 = 92 m

The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that calculates the likelihood that a certain number of events will occur within a certain amount of time.

The probability of getting exactly three robberies in a day is 0.1607.

<h3>What is meant by poison distribution?</h3>

The Poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution used in probability theory and statistics to express the likelihood that a given number of events will occur within a specified time or space interval if they occur at a known constant mean rate and regardless of the interval since the last event.

The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that calculates the likelihood that a certain number of events will occur within a certain amount of time.

In the poison distribution a discrete random variable X has the following probability mass function,

$P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda} \cdot \lambda^x}{x !}$ , where $\lambda$ is the mean of the distribution and $x=0,1,2,3 \ldots \ldots$
