The perimeter is all sides length added together. You can make an equation:5+5+x+x where x is the length.
5+5=10    18-10=8     There is two sides so you do eight divided by two
The length is 4

Perimeter = 18 units.
width = 5 units.

Perimeter = 2*(l + w)

18 = 2*( l + 5)

18/2 = l + 5

9 = l + 5

l + 5 = 9

l = 9 - 5 = 4

Length = 4 units.

Two non-simultaneous events have an equal likelihood of occurring (50%). If the events are independent of each other, what is th
BARSIC [14]
There are 4 possibilities:

1) No event happens
2) event A happens, not event B
3) event B happens, not event A
4) both events happen

seeing as there is a 50% chance of either event happening, I would assume that all 4 possibilities have an equal chance of happening

so if there are 4 events, then each one is 25% likely.

So the probability if them both occurring is 25%

I think

Working together, it takes Sam, Jenna, and Francisco two hours to paint one room. When Sam works alone, he can paint one room in
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:  12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Working together, it takes Sam, Jenna, and Francisco two hours to paint one room.

When Sam works alone, he can paint one room in 6 hours. When Jenna works alone, she can paint one room in 4 hours.

Let 't' be the time taken by Francisco to paint one room on his own.

Then , we have

Rate of work of  Sam +Rate of work of Jenna + Rate of work of  Francisco =Rate of work they all do together

\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-(\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{4})

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-(\dfrac{4+6}{24})

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{10}{24}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{5}{12}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{6-5}{12}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{12}

i.e. t= 12

Hence,  Francisco would take 12 hours to  paint one room on his own.

She worked a total of 15 hours. If she makes $15 per hour tutoring and $9 per hour at the grocery store and made a total of $159
Ugo [173]

Answer:

11 hours she worked at the grocery store

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming,

the number of hours worked at tutoring = x

the number of hours worked at grocery store = y

which means,

the amount she made at tutoring = x* $15

the amount she made at grocery store = y*$9

we have 2 equations

<em>total number of hours</em>

1) x+y= 15  

<em>total amount she earned</em>

2) x* $15+ y* $9= $159

From equation 1

x+y= 15  

x=15-y

<em>we replace this x value in equation 2</em>

x* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15-y)* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15*15)- 15y+9y=159

225-6y=159

225-159=6y

66=6y

66/6=y

<u>11=y</u>  <em>the number of hours she worked at grocery store. </em>

<em>we place y=11 in our derived x equation</em>

x=15-y

x=15-11

<u><em>x=4 </em></u><em>the number of hours she worked at tutoring. </em>
