The Lush Landscaping Company is involved in a project for the city.
They will be enlarging the garden in front of City Hall. The current
dimensions of the garden are 24 feet long by 16 feet wide. The
company plans to make the garden area larger by planting a border
of flowers all the way around the existing garden. The border will
have the same width around the entire garden

A: Let x represent the width of the border. Write expressions for the length and the width of the
new garden space (after the border has been added) in terms of x.

B: Write a trinomial that represents the area of the new garden space (after the border has been added).

C:Write a polynomial expression that represents the area of the border the landscape company plans to add.

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

probability for j is 1/4

while

a is 1/6
