<h3>Given :-</h3>

Perimeter of triangle = 42

Side 1 of triangle = (x + 4)

Side 2 of triangle = (3x + 8)

Side 3 of triangle = (5x + 6)

Length of sides

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

So to find length of sides we have to find the value of x.We can find value of x , by this formula:

$\\ \\$

$\bigstar \boxed{ \rm perimeter \: of \triangle \: = side_1 + side_2 + side_3}$

$\\ \\$

So:-

$\\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt perimeter \: of \triangle \: = side_1 + side_2 + side_3 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 42 = (x + 4) + (3x + 8)+( 5x + 6) \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 42 = x + 4+ 3x + 8+5x + 6 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 42 = x + 3x+5x+ 4 + 8 + 6 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 42 = 9x+ 4 + 8 + 6 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 42 = 9x+ 18\\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 42 - 18 = 9x \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 24 = 9x \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 9x = 24 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \tt x = \dfrac{24}{9} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \bf x =2.67 \{approx \}\\$

$\\ \\$

Side 1 of triangle = (x + 4)
Side 1 of triangle =2.67 + 4
Side 1 of triangle = 6.67

Side 2 of triangle = 3x + 8
Side 2 of triangle = 3 × 6.67 + 8
Side 2 of triangle = 20.01 + 8
Side 2 of triangle = 28.01

Side 3 of triangle = 5x + 6
Side 3 of triangle = 5 × 2.67 + 6
Side 3 of triangle = 13.35 + 6
Side 3 of triangle = 19.35

Find the probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 b

jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information; Let's assume that R should represent the set of all possible outcomes generated from a bit string of length 10 .

So; as each place is fitted with either 0 or 1

$\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}$

Similarly; the event E signifies the randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0

Now;

if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely

The probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely is;

$\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{|E|}{|R|}}$

so ; if bits string should not contain a 0 and all other places should be occupied by 1; Then:

$\mathbf{{|E|}=1 }$ ; $\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}$

$\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{1}{2^{10}}}$

Eddie Hibbs earns a gross income of $42,300 a

Maslowich

Using proportions, it is found that his tax rate is of 28.84%.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

His tax rate is the proportion that the <u>deductions are of the total salary</u>, hence:

12,200/42,300 = 0.2884 = 28.84%.

Hence his tax rate is of 28.84%.
