Answer:

t needs 68 feet to enclose the garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are to solve the sides of a parallelogram ABCD to know the measurement to enclose a garden.

Take note that a parallelogram has two equal lengths and two equal widths. Let us assume that the parallelogram AB = CD is the length and AD = BC is the width.

Solving the problem

First, let us solve for r using the condition AD = BC

AD = BC

3r + 8 = 2r + 12

Simplify the equation

3r - 2r = 12 - 8

r = 4

Next, let us substitute the value of r to AB, BC, CD, and AD.

For AB:

AB = 4r - 2

AB = 4(4) - 2

AB = 16 - 2 = 14

For BC:

BC = 2r + 12

BC = 2(4) + 12

BC = 8 + 12 = 20

For AD:

AD = 3r + 8

AD = 3(4) + 8

AD = 12 + 8 = 20

For CD:

But AB = CD Therefore, CD = 14

Finally, let us solve the perimeter of the parallelogram

Perimeter = AB + BC + CD + AD

Perimeter = 14 + 20 + 20 + 14

Perimeter = 68 feet

Therefore, the fencing needed to enclose the garden is 68 feet.

Suppose that 1% of all computers of a certain type experience CPU failure during the warranty period. If a simple random sample
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A)

μ = 5

σ = 2.2

B)

P(0) = 0.0066

C)

P(x ≥ 4) = 0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The expected value is going to be the same as the mean μ.

We can use the binomial probability distribution because there are a fixed number of trials (500), each trial is independent and there are only two possible outcomes (CPU failure or not) and the probability of failure has the fixed value 0.01.

For binomial distributions:

μ = np, where p is the probability (in this case of CPU failure) and n is the number of trials (500)

μ = (500)(0.01) = 5

σ = \sqrt{npq}, where q = 1 - p

σ = \sqrt{(500)(0.01)(0.99)} = 2.2

B) We can use the binomial probability formula

P(x)=(\frac{n!}{(n-x)!x!}) × pˣ × qⁿ⁻ˣ

P(0)=(\frac{500!}{(500-0)!0!}) × 0.01⁰ × 0.99⁵⁰⁰

C) In this case wee need to use a binomial distribution calculator. Setting n as 500, π = 0.01 and finding the probability above 3.

What is the equation of the following graph in vertex form? parabolic function going down from the left through the point negati
Anestetic [448]
A parabolic function's key characteristic is either having 2 x-intercepts or 2 y-intercepts. That is the reason why the standard form of parabolic functions are:

(x-h)^2 = +/- 4a(y-k) or (y-k)^2 = +/- 4a(x-h), where

(h,k) is the coordinates of the vertex
4a is the lactus rectum
a is the distance from the focus to the vertex

This is also called vertex form because the vertex (h,k) is grouped according to their variable.
 
Since we don't know any of those parameters, we'll just have to graph the data points given as shown in the picture. From this data alone, we can see that the parabola has two x-intercepts, x=-4 and x=-2. Since it has 2 roots, the parabola is a quadratic equation. Its equation should be

y = (x+4)(x+2)
Expanding the right side
y = x²+4x+2x+8
y = x²+6x+8
Rearrange the equation such that all x terms are on one side of the equation
x²+6x+___=y-8+___
The blank is designated for the missing terms to complete the square. Through completing the squares method, you can express the left side of the equation into (x-h)² form. This is done by taking the middle term, dividing it by two, and squaring it. So, (6/2)²=9. Therefore, you put 9 to the 2 blanks. The equation is unchanged because you add 9 to both sides of the equation.

The final equation is 
x²+6x+9=y-8+9
(x+3)²=y+1
