ANSWER

The length of the rectangular field is 99 yards

EXPLANATION

Given information

The perimeter of a rectangle field is 372 yards

The width of the field is 87 yards

To find the length of the rectangular field, follow the steps below

Step 1: Write the formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangular field

\begin{gathered} \text{ The perimeter of a rectangular field = 2\lparen l + w\rparen} \\ \text{ where l =length, and w = width} \end{gathered}

Step 2: Substitute the given data into the formula in step 1

\begin{gathered} \text{ Perimeter = 2 \lparen l + w\rparen} \\ \text{ Perimeter = 372 yards} \\ \text{ width = 87 yards} \\ \text{  372 = 2\lparen l + 87\rparen} \\ \text{ Divide both sides by 2} \\ \text{ }\frac{372}{2}\text{ = }\frac{2}{2}(l\text{ + 87\rparen} \\ 186\text{ = l + 87} \\ \text{  subtract 87 from each sides of the equation} \\ \text{ 186 - 87 = l + 87 - 87} \\ \text{  99 = l} \\ l\text{ = 99 yards} \end{gathered}

Hence, the length of the rectangular field is 99 yards

A bag contains 30 lottery balls numbered 1-30 a ball is selected replaced then another is drawn find each probability
iogann1982 [59]
#1) 5/20
#2) 7/300
#3) 3/50
#4) 5/20

Explanation
For #1:
There are 15 even numbers out of 30.  Since it is replaced before drawing the second ball, there will be 15 odd numbers out of 30.  This gives us
15/30(15/30) = 225/900 = 5/20.

For #2:
There is 1 7 out of 30; then there are 14 numbers greater than 16 out of 30:
1/30(14/30) = 14/900 = 7/300

For #3:
There are 6 multiples of 5 out of 30; then there are 9 prime numbers out of 30:
6/30(9/30) = 54/900 = 3/50

For #4:
There are 15 even numbers out of 30; then there are still 15 even numbers out of 30:
15/30(15/30) = 225/900 = 5/20
