A home is to be built on a 56 foot 9 inch wide lot. The house is 5 feet 5 inches from the side of the lot and is 34 feet 10 inch

daser333 [38]

Total lot - house -other side
=(56 ft 9 in) - (34 ft 10 in) - (5 ft 5 in)
=(55 ft 21 in) - (34 ft 10 in) - (5 ft 5 in)
=16 ft 6 in
Convert to inches: 16 ft x 12 in/ft)+ 6 in= Total in inches192 in + 6 in= Total in inches
198 in= Total in inches
Check: One side + house + other side = Lot width
(5 ft 5 in)+(34 ft 10 in)+(16 ft 6 in)=Lot width
56 ft 9 in=Lot width, which equals the given.

Answer:Area of part 1:

A1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

Area of part 2:

A2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

Area of part 3:

A3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

Total shaded area : A1+A2+A3=41 ft2

Total area of the reactangle : A=16*8=128 ft2

Total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2

Answer:

The answer is "Options A, B, and E represent mutually exclusive events".

Step-by-step explanation:

Two occurrences that can happen immediately called mutually incompatible. Let's now glance at our options and figure out where the statements are mutually incompatible events.

In Option A: You could see that landing on an unwanted portion and arriving on 2 are events that are locally incompatible, even as undesirable portion contains 3 and 4, and 2 were shaded.

In Option B: Arriving on a shaded part and falling on 3 are also mutually incompatible because there are 3 on a windows azure.

In Option C: A darkened portion and an increasing amount can land while 2 would be an even number as well as on the shaded portion. That number is very much the same.

In Option D: At the same time as 4 is greater than 3 and it is situated upon an undistressed section, landing and attracting a number larger than 3 can happen.

In Option E: Landing on a shaded part and landing on even a shaded part is an excluding event, since shaders may either be shaded or unlit.
