A. write an expression in simplest form for the perimeter of each triangle.

b. write another expression in simplest form that shows the difference between the perimeter of the large triangle in the perimeter of the smaller triangle.

c. find the perimeter for each triangle when x equals 3

20.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean (m) is equal to 87.5, the standard deviation (sd) 6.25 and the sample size (n) = 12

They ask us for P (x <86)

For this, the first thing is to calculate z, which is given by the following equation:

z = (x - m) / (sd / (n ^ 1/2))

We have all these values, replacing we have:

z = (86 - 87.5) / (6.25 / (12 ^ 1/2))

z = -0.83

With the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at that value, the probability is:

P (z <-0.83) = 0.2033

The probability is 20.33%
