Complete question :

A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?

1) 2 1/2 feet

2) 3 feet

4) 5 feet

5) 8 1/2 feet

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for X in the perimeter equation :

2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74

Open the bracket

2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74

2(27 + 4x) = 74

54 + 8x = 74

8x = 74 - 54

8x = 20

x = 20/8

x = 2.5

Hence, width fo border = 2.5

Can anyone help me with this question?

Answer:

x= 60°, y = 80°, z = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the line substending 40° and Z°; you would see that both lines are parallel and so their angles are they the same.

Hence z= 40° { corresponding angles of parallel lines}

Similarly;

Look at the line substending 60° and x°; you would see that both lines are parallel and so their angles are they the same.

60° = x° { corresponding angles of parallel lines}

Now looking at the angle between x and y; let's call the angle between them r

And you would observe closely that r = z° = 40°{ vertically opposite angles are equal}

Note that x + r + y = 180°{ angle on a straight line}

y = 180° - ( x + r)

y = 180 - (60+40)

y = 180° - 100°

= 80°

According to the National Bridge Inspection Standard (NBIS), public bridges over 20 feet in length must be inspected and rated e

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

1.80% probability that in a random sample of 12 major Denver bridges, at least 4 will have an inspection rating of 4 or below in 2020.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each bridge, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it has rating of 4 or below, or it does not. The probability of a bridge being rated 4 or below is independent from other bridges. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

For the year 2020, the engineers forecast that 9% of all major Denver bridges will have ratings of 4 or below.

This means that $p = 0.09$

Use the forecast to find the probability that in a random sample of 12 major Denver bridges, at least 4 will have an inspection rating of 4 or below in 2020.

Either less than 4 have a rating of 4 or below, or at least 4 does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is 1.

So

$P(X < 4) + P(X \geq 4) = 1$
