P = 2(L + W)
P = 36
36 = 2(L + W)
36/2 = L + W
18 = L + W....L = 18 - W

A = L * W
A = 65
L = 18 - W

65 = W(18 - W)
65 = 18W - W^2
W^2 - 18W + 65 = 0
(W - 13)(W - 5) = 0

W - 13 = 0  .....L = 18 - 13
W = 13            L = 5
                        

W - 5 = 0         L = 18 - 5
W = 5              L = 13

Not exactly sure which (length or width)...but one is 13 ft and the other is 5 ft

Answer: If the length of rectangle is 13 feet , then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-13=5 feet.

If the length of rectangle is 5 feet, then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-5=13 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Perimeter of rectangular region = 36 feet

Area of rectangular region = 65 sq feet

Let the length of rectangle be 'l'.

Let the breadth of rectangle be 'b'.

As we know the formula for perimeter of rectangle :

Perimeter=2(l+b)\\\\36=2(l+b)\\\\18=l+b\\\\l=18-b

And area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

so, it becomes

65=b(18-b)\\\\65=18b-b^2\\\\b^2-18b+65=0\\\\b^2-13b-5b+65=0\\\\b(b-13)-5(b-13)=0\\\\(b-13)(b-5)=0\\\\b=13,5

Hence, If the length of rectangle is 13 feet , then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-13=5 feet.

If the length of rectangle is 5 feet, then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-5=13 feet.

klio [65]

The question is an example of a ratio problem. This implies that

\begin{gathered} \text{Domestic vehicles ratio=6} \\ \text{Foreign vehicles ratio=5} \\ Sum\text{ of vehicles ratio =5+6=11} \end{gathered}

Therefore, le the number of domestic vehicles be x. We can say that;

\begin{gathered} \frac{6}{11}=\frac{x}{2673} \\ 11x=16038 \\ x=\frac{16038}{11} \\ x=1458 \end{gathered}

N a game, four cards are labeled N, S, E, and W. Two tiles are numbered 1 and 2. Two discs are red and blue. A player randomly s
algol [13]

Answer: The probability that the player selects a card with S or E, a tile with 2 and a red disc is given as 0.125 (or 1/8)

Step-by-step explanation: If four cards are labelled N, S, E and W, then that means there are a total of four possible outcomes. Also with tiles numbered 1 and 2 there are a total of two possible outcomes when selecting tiles. Then there are two discs in total (one red and one blue) which means there are a total of two outcomes when selecting discs.

To select a card with S would be calculated as follows;

P(S) = Number of required outcomes/Number of all possible outcomes

P(S) = 1/4

P(S) = 0.25

To select a card with E would likewise be calculated as follows;

P(E) = Number of required outcomes/Number of possible outcomes

P(E) = 1/4

P(E) = 0.25

Therefore, the probability that a player selects a card with S or E is derived as follows;

P(S or E) = P(S) + P(E)

P(S or E) = 0.25 + 0.25

P(S or E) = 0.5

The probability that he selects a tile with 2 written on it is calculated as;

P(T2) = Number of required outcomes/Number of all possible outcomes

P(T2) = 1/2

P(T2) = 0.5

The probability that he will select a red disc is calculated as;

P(R) = Number of required outcomes/Number of possible outcomes

P(R) = 1/2

P(R) = 0.5

Therefore, the probability that the player selects a card with S or E, a tile with 2 and a red disc is calculated as;

P(S or E and T2 and R) = 0.5*0.5*0.5

P(S or E and T2 and R) = 0.125

Hence the probability that the player selects a card with S or E, a tile with 2 and a red disc is 0.125 (or 1/8).

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

2.34 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we need to find how many grams in 2.34mL. To solve the problem, we must know the relationship between grams and millilitre.

We know that,

1 milliitre = 1 gram

Hence,

2.34 mL = 2.34 grams.
