P = s + (s + 5) + (s + 5) This represents the two sides that are 5 inches longer than the base (s + 5) and the base (s).
Simplifying.
100 = 3s + 10
subtract 10 from both sides
90 = 3s
divide both sides by 3
30 = s
base = 30
sides = 35
CHECK 30 + 35 + 35 = 100
You said X = (5y+1) / (y-2)
Multiply each side by (y-2):
X(y-2) = (5y+1)
Eliminate parentheses:
Xy - 2X = 5y + 1
Add 2X to each side:
Xy = 5y + 1 + 2X
Subtract 5y from each side:
(X-5)y = 1 + 2X
Divide each side by (X-5):
<em>y = (1+2X) / (X-5) </em>

Answer:
0.966
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Probability of DVD player breaking down before the warranty expires = 0.034
To find:
The probability that the player will not break down before the warranty expires = ?
Solution:
Here, The two events are:
1. The DVD player breaks down before the warranty gets expired.
2. The DVD player breaks down after the warranty gets expired
In other words, the 2nd event can be stated as:
The DVD does not break down before the warranty gets expired.
The two events here, have nothing in common i.e. they are mutually exclusive events.
So, Sum of their probabilities will be equal to 1.
