Step-by-step explanation:
x=width of pool
2x=length of pool
the dimensions of the rectangle forming the walkway and the pool are x+4 and 2x+4
the area of this rectangle minus the area of the pool is 196 square feet
(2x+4)(x+4)-(x)(2x)=196
2x^2+4x+8x+16-2x^2=196
combine similar terms
12x+16=196
12x=196-16
12x=180
x=180/12
x=15 feet is the width of the pool
check: 34*19-30*15=196
646-450=196
196=196
Answer:44
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. P ( tails) = 1/2
2.P (number greater than 4) = 1/3
3. P (2 die sum to 8) = 5/36
Step-by-step explanation:
A coin only has 2 possibilities, head or tails, and they are equally likely
So the probability of getting a tails is 1/2
P ( tails) = 1/2
A die has the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6 . There are 2 numbers greater than 4. They are 5 and 6. So there are 2 of the 6 choices that work.
P (number greater than 4) = 2/6 = 1/3
See the dice chart
There are 36 possibilities when you roll the die.
There are 5 that sum to 8
P (2 die sum to 8) = 5/36
