Answer:

(x+3)•4=(x+4)•2+(x+1)•2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+12=2x+8+2x+2

4x-2x-2x=-12+8+2

0=-2

this expression is indeterminate.

Answer:

There is no value of x to fit this requirement.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 perimeters in terms of x are:

4(x + 3) for the square and

2(x+1) + 2(x +4)  for the rectangle

and these need to be equal so

we equate these 2 and solve for x:

4(x + 3) = 2(x+1) + 2(x +4)

4x + 12 = 2x + 2 + 2x + 8

4x + 12 = 4x + 10

4x -  4x = 10 - 12

0 = -2   which is of course absurd so there is no solution to this equation.

A painter charges by the square foot and charges you $1,875 to paint a 750 square foot rental house. If you need 1300 square foo
Stella [2.4K]

In this question , it is given that

A painter charges by the square foot and charges you $1,875 to paint a 750 square foot rental house.

For 750 square foot, he charges $1875.

So for 1 square foot, he charges

= \frac{1875}{750} = $2.50 \ \per \ square \ foot

And for 1300 square foot, he charges

= 2.50*1300 = $3250

Parking spaces at a business school are arranged by a random monthly lottery. there are 3 spaces for every 10 students who want
Alexus [3.1K]

27.034%  
Let's define the function P(x) for the probability of getting a parking space exactly x times over a 9 month period. it would be: 
P(x) = (0.3^x)(0.7^(9-x))*9!/(x!(9-x)!)  
Let me explain the above. The raising of (0.3^x)(0.7^(9-x)) is the probability of getting exactly x successes and 9-x failures. Then we shuffle them in the 9! possible arrangements. But since we can't tell the differences between successes, we divide by the x! different ways of arranging the successes. And since we can't distinguish between the different failures, we divide by the (9-x)! different ways of arranging those failures as well. So P(4) = 0.171532242 meaning that there's a 17.153% chance of getting a parking space exactly 4 times. 
Now all we need to do is calculate the sum of P(x) for x ranging from 4 to 9.

So
 P(4) = 0.171532242
 P(5) = 0.073513818
 P(6) = 0.021003948
 P(7) = 0.003857868
 P(8) = 0.000413343
 P(9) = 0.000019683
  And
 0.171532242 + 0.073513818 + 0.021003948 + 0.003857868 + 0.000413343
+ 0.000019683 = 0.270340902 
 So the probability of getting a parking space at least four out of the nine months is 27.034%

A city places 18 trash cans along a 13.5 miles stretch of beach. The trash cans are placed an equal distance apart. How many mil
Goryan [66]

Answer:

0.7941 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

I would think of this situation as a giant ruler.

The 18 trash cans can be thought of as endpoints on intervals in this giant ruler.

1--------2 --------3  --------4-----------5

If you notice the numbers that I wrote, there are five of them, but there are 4 intervals.

So we need to minus one from 18  to get  17 equal length intervals so that the trash cans are equally spaced.

Interval length = 13.5 miles / 17 intervals = 0.7941 miles

The graph shows the distribution of the number of text messages young adults send per day. The distribution is approximately Nor
erik [133]

The percentage of young adults send between 128 and 158 text messages per day is; 34%

<h3>How to find the percentage from z-score?</h3>

The distribution is approximately Normal, with a mean of 128 messages and a standard deviation of 30 messages.

We are given;

Sample mean; x' = 158

Population mean; μ = 128

standard deviation; σ = 30

We want to find the area under the curve from x = 248 to x = 158.

where x is the number of text messages sent per day.

To find P(158 < x < 248), we will convert the score x = 158 to its corresponding z score as;

z = (x - μ)/σ

z = (158 - 128)/30

z = 30/30

z = 1

This tells us that the score x = 158 is exactly one standard deviation above the mean μ = 128.

From online p-value from z-score calculator, we have;

P-value = 0.34134 = 34%

Approximately 34% of the the population sends between 128 and 158 text messages per day.
