Let the Width be x cm
Then the length which is 5cm more than width must be (x+5) cm
Using the formula for the area = length* width
x(x+5) =50
(Distribute x on the parenthesis )
(subtract 50 )
(Factor)
we get
(Not x=-10 because negative side length not possible)
Width = 5 cm
Length = 5+5= 10 cm
Perimeter = 2(Length + width)
So
Perimeter = 2(10+5)
Perimeter = 2*15=30 cm
Answer:
It takes less time sending 5 letters the traditional way with a probability of 36.7%.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we must take into account that:
- The traditional method is distributed X ~ Poisson(L = 1)
- The new method is distributed X ~ Poisson(L = 5)
Where L is the intensity in which the events happen in a time unit and x is the number of events.
To solve the problem we must calculate the probability of events (to send 5 letters) in a unit of time for both methods, so:
- For the traditional method:
- For the new method:
According to this calculations we have a higher probability of sending 5 letters with the traditional method in a unit of time, that is 36.7%. Whereas sending 5 letters with the new method is less probable in a unit of time. In other words, we have more events per unit of time with the traditional method.
