Width= 1/2x length=x
to find the perimeter, it's the width+width+length+length so:
1/2x+1/2x+x+x=54
3x=54
x=18
the length is 18 cm and the width is 9 cm

Let length of the rectangle = x.
Let width of the rectangle = x/2 (or 1/2 of x)

Remember that Area = 2L + 2W, so . . .

2x + 2(x/2) = 54

2x + (2/2)x = 54

2x + x = 54

3x = 54  -->  x = 54/3 --> x = 18

So the length of the rectangle is 18 cm and the width is 18/2 = 9 cm.

Mademuasel [1]

Probability that the first 2 of the friends to show up to the movie are friends he has known since kindergarten but the third not is 1/10

Total friends = 10

Friends from kindergarten = 4

Probability is the chance that a given event will occur. Probability of an event lies within 0 to 1

P(E) = Favourable outcomes / Total outcomes

Probability of getting 1st friend from kindergarten = 4/10

Probability of getting 2nd friend from kindergarten = 3/9

Probability of getting 3rd friend not from kindergarten = 6/8

Since all these probabilities are independent, We can use Multiplicative identity.  Thus,

Required probability is 4/10 * 3/9 * 6/8

= 1/10

Thus, Probability that the first 2 of the friends to show up to the movie are friends he has known since kindergarten but the third not is 1/10

Solving system by substitution x=3y+11, 2x-3y=16
grin007 [14]
Input 3y+11 for x

2(3y+11)-3y=16
6y+22-3y=16
3y= -6
Divide by 3 to isolate y
y=-2

Now for x....

x=3(-2)+11
=-6+11
=5
x=5
