Answer:

  8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the length of the third side. The first side is 7 ft more, so is (t +7). The second side is 1 ft shorter than 3 times the third side, so is (3t -1). The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths:

  21 = (t +7) +(3t -1) +t

  21 = 5t +6

  15 = 5t . . . . . . . subtract 6

  3 = t . . . . . . . divide by 5

Then the length of the second side is ...

  3t -1 = 3·3 -1 = 8 . . . . feet

The length of the second side is 8 feet.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The first side is 3+7 = 10 ft. So the three side lengths are 10 ft, 8 ft, 3 ft.

The number of minutes that Samantha waits to catch the bus is uniformly distributed between 0 and 15 minutes. What is the probab
Maslowich

Answer:

option d. 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

a=0

b=15

Now,

The probability density function of the uniform distribution is given as:

f(x)=\frac{1}{15-0}

f(x)=\frac{1}{15}, 0

Therefore,

The required probability will be

P(X

P(X

P(X

P(X

P(X

or

= 0.3 × 100%

= 30%

Hence,

The answer is option d. 30%

30 points plus brainliest if answered right!
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The second choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of AC must be equal to 5, since it is horizontally five units. We can rule out the first option.

Length BC cannot be the square root of 16, since that would be exactly 4 units. BC is slanted and does not represent a completely vertical line, so it is not a whole number. We can rule out the fourth option.

Length AB cannot be a whole number, being a slanted line that crosses a total of more than four units. Option three can be ruled out.

Therefore, we are left with the second option.
