Answer:
The length of one side is 13 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
To start, a square is 4 sides that are equal in length. This means that when you have a problem like this, you need to set the equations equal to each other like:
In order to solve a problem like this, with the same variables on different sides, start by subtracting the smaller variable from both sides. In this case, you would be subtracting 2x from both sides, which would leave us with:
After that, you solve it like a normal one-step equation. Add 11 to both sides.
Now, divide both sides by 4 and you will know how much is worth.
Now that we know how much is worth, we can plug that into either of the equations given to us. It doesn't matter which since they are equal to each other.
That would give us 13.
Applying the formula, you have:
A = the number is prime
B = the number is odd
I assume that with "random" you imply that all numbers can be chosen with the same probability. So, we have
because 4 out of 8 numbers are prime: 2, 3, 5 and 7.
Similarly, we have
because 4 out of 8 numbers are odd: 1, 3, 5 and 7.
Finally,
because 3 out of 8 numbers are prime and odd: 3, 5 and 7.
So, applying the formula, we have
Note:
I think that it is important to have a clear understanding of what's happening from a conceptual point of you: conditional probability simply changes the space you're working with: you are not asking "what is the probability that a random number, taken from 1 to 8, is prime?"
Rather, you are adding a bit of information, because you are asking "what is the probability that a random number, taken from 1 to 8, is prime, knowing that it's odd?"
So, we're not working anymore with the space {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}, but rather with {1,3,5,7} (we already know that our number is odd).
Out of these 4 odd numbers, 3 are primes. This is why the probability of picking a prime number among the odd numbers in {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8} is 3/4: they are literally 3 out of 4.
