The perimeter of a college athletic field is 96 meters and the length is 16 m more than the width. Find the length and width.

1 answer:

3 0

In order to figure this out, you are going to do the math backwards. If the perimeter of the entire field is 96 meters, you will want to remove 16, which will give you 80 meters. You will then divide this by 2, giving you 40 meters. The width of the field will be 40 meters. That means that the length of the field is going to be 56 meters.

Suppose that 50% of all adults regularly consume coffee, 65% regularly consume carbonated soda, and 45% regularly consumes both

DENIUS [597]

Answer: There is a chance of 5% of adult regularly drinks coffee but doesn't drink soda.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of all adults consume coffee P(C) = 50%

Probability of all adults consume carbonated soda P(S) = 65%

Probability of all adults consumes both coffee and soda P(C∩S) = 45%

We need to find the probability that adult regularly drinks coffee but doesn't drink soda.

So, it is talking about difference of sets in which we consider only one set completely i.e. it contains all element of one set but never contains any element of another set.

Here, P( Coffee - Soda) = P(C)-P(C∩S)

$P(C-S)=0.50-0.45=0.05=0.05\times 100\%=5\%$
