A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular area that is 1/8 mile wide by 1/4 mile long. which of the following proportions can the

farmer use to calculate how many feet of fencing he will need?
A) x/3 divided by 4 ft =1 mile/5280ft
B) 3/4 miles divided by x= 1 mile/5280ft
C) 1 mile/5280ft=3/8 miles divided by x
D) 1 mile/5280ft=x/3 divided by 8ft

1mi = 5280feet
 The first thing you should do in this case is to calculate the perimeter of the rectangle which will be given by:
 P = 2 * L + 2 * W
 Where
 L = long
 W = width
 Calculating we have:
 P = 2 * (1/4) + 2 * (1/8)
 P = 1/2 + 1/4
 P = 3/4 mi
 To calculate this distance to feet we have to use the following expression:
 (3/4) / (x) = 1/5280

An attempt to establish a video call via some social media app may fail with probability 0.1. If connection is established and i
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

(1). y = x ~ Exp (1/3).

(2). Check attachment.

(3). EY = 3(1 - e^-2).

(4). Var[y] = 3(1 - e^-2) (1 -3 (1 - e^-2)) - 36e^-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly check the attachment to aid in understanding the solution to the question.

So, from the question, we given the following parameters or information or data;

(A). The probability in which attempt to establish a video call via some social media app may fail with = 0.1.

(B). " If connection is established and if no connection failure occurs thereafter, then the duration of a typical video call in minutes is an exponential random variable X with E[X] = 3. "

(C). "due to an unfortunate bug in the app all calls are disconnected after 6 minutes. Let random variable Y denote the overall call duration (i.e., Y = 0 in case of failure to connect, Y = 6 when a call gets disconnected due to the bug, and Y = X otherwise.)."

(1). Hence, for FY(y) = y = x ~ Exp (1/3) for the condition that zero is equal to y = x < 6.

(2). Check attachment.

(3). EY = 3(1 - e^-2).

(4). Var[y] = 3(1 - e^-2) (1 -3 (1 - e^-2)) - 36e^-2.

The condition to follow in order to solve this question is that y = 0 if x ≤ 0, y = x if 0 ≤ x ≤ 6 and y = 6 if x ≥ 6.

Triangle J K L is shown. Angle J K L is a right angle. An altitude is drawn from point K to point M on side L J to form a right
KiRa [710]

Answer:

3\sqrt{5}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Theorem 1:</u> The height of right triangle drawn from the right angle to the hypotenuse divides the hypotenuse into two segments. The length of the altitude is the geometric mean of these two segments. Hence,

KM^2=ML\cdot MJ\\ \\6^2=ML\cdot 3\\ \\3ML=36\\ \\ML=12\ units

<u>Theorem 2:</u> In a right triangle, the altitude drawn from the right angle to the hypotenuse divides the hypotenuse into two segments. The length of each leg of the right triangle is the geometric mean of the lengths of the hypotenuse and the segment of the hypotenuse that is adjacent to the leg.

Thus,

KJ^2=MJ\cdot ML\\ \\KJ^2=3\cdot (3+12)\\ \\KJ^2=3\cdot 15\\ \\KJ^2=45\\ \\KJ=\sqrt{45}=3\sqrt{5}\ units

In the following diagram \overline{DE} \parallel \overline{FG}
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

<x = 31°

Step-by-step explanation:

m<BCA = m<GCJ (vertical angles)

m<BCA = 59° (substitution)

Since line KL is perpendicular to line FG, the angle formed at point B is 90°.

Therefore, m<ABC = 90°

m<BAC + m<ABC + m<BCA = 180° (sum of triangle)

m<BAC + 90° + 59° = 180° (Substitution)

m<BAC + 149° = 180°

m<BAC = 180° - 149°

m<BAC = 31°

<x = <BAC (vertical angles)

m<x = 31° (substitution)

Miyoko's goal is to earn more than \$950$950dollar sign, 950 this week. She earns \$250$250dollar sign, 250 for every day she wo
GrogVix [38]

$250 c+ $ 180 g > $ 950

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

As a cryptographer (c), Miyoko earns per day = $ 250

As a geologist (g) , Miyoko earns per day = $ 180

So the equation comes to be $250 c+ $ 180 g = $ 950

The equation can be rewritten to find c as, (950-180 g) / 250

The equation can be rewritten to find g as, (950 - 250 c) / 180

Plugin different values of c and g in the above 2 equations, we can find that ,

To achieve the goal, Miyoko requires to be a geologist for 3 days and crpytographist for 2 days.
