Let x be the number of rows and y be the number of trees per row.

x* y = 112
and y =  2x - 2
from first equation  y = 112/x
so  112/x = 2x - 2
112 = 2x^2 - 2x
2x^2 - 2x - 112 = 0
x^2 - x - 56 = 0
(x - 8)(x + 7) = 0
x = 8 , - 7   (ignore the negative)
so the number of rows = 8 
and number of trees per row = 112/8 = 14

Answer number of rows = 8 and number trees i each row = 14.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Periodontal disease

Event B: Heart attack

Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal disease, an inflammation of the gums.

This means that P(A|B) = 0.82

Only 33% of healthy people have this disease.

This means that P(A) = 0.33

Suppose that in a certain community heart attacks are quite rare, occurring with only 15% probability.

This means that P(B) = 0.15

If someone has periodontal disease, what is the probability that he or she will have a heart attack

P(B|A) = \frac{0.15*0.82}{0.33} = 0.3727

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.
