Answer:

From a glance, -1.67 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a higher probability of losing money than gaining it due to the distribution of probability. Aka: there are more chances to lose than win. As a result, you are expected to lose money. Only -1.67 is the only negative option, which means that we dont even need to do real math since there's already only one choice.

Find the perimeter of the following trapezoid:<br> 6 ft<br> 2.5 ft/ 12 ft<br> 2.5 ft<br> 8 ft
sasho [114]

Answer:

31ft

Step-by-step explanation:

6 ft  + 2.5 ft + 12 ft  + 2.5 ft  + 8 ft  = 31ft

I assumed the slash in the space between 2.5ft and 12ft was an error, so I ignored it in the solution to this problem.

Besides that, perimeter is found by adding all sides of the shape or figure together, and the sum of that is the perimeter.

The basic formula for perimeter is:

base + height + base + height.

I do not think you square perimeter as you do area (e.g. 31ft^2).

A club swimming pool is 21ft wide and 41ft long. The club members want a uniform width border around the pool. They have enough
oksano4ka [1.4K]

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>Strip with </em><em>2.13 ft </em><em>width can be used. </em>

<u>Solution-</u>

A club swimming pool is 21 ft wide and 41 ft long.

Hence, the perimeter of the swimming pool is

P=2(\text{Length}+\text{Width})=2(41+21)=2(62)=124\ ft

The club members want a uniform width border around the pool.

They have enough material for 264 ft²

As they will cover the perimeter of the rectangular pool, so the length of the total used strip is equal to the perimeter of the swimming pool.

Let the width of the strip is x ft

So, the total area of the used strip is,

A=\text{Length}\times \text{Width}

Putting the values,

\Rightarrow 264=124\times x

\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{264}{124}

\Rightarrow x=2.13\ ft

Therefore, strip with 2.13 ft width can be used.
