If the width is w and the length is l, then 2w-2=l and 2w+2l=72 (using the perimeter equation). Plugging 2w-2 in for l, we get 2w+(2w-2)*2=72 and 6w-4=72. Adding 4 to both sides, we get 6w=76. After that, we divide both sides by 6 to get 74/6=w. Since l=2w-2=136/6, we get (136/6)(74/6)=656.75=area

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Angle 1= 58

Angle 2= 64

Angle 3= 58

Step-by-step explanation:

The two smaller triangles are each right triangles and every triangle equals 180 so add 32 degrees and 90 degrees ( 90+32=122) and subtract that from 180 and you get angles 1 and 3 from your isosceles triangle

then you add both angles 1 and 3 from your isosceles triangle which are 58 degrees each (58+58=116) and subtract that from 180 (180-116=64) and you get angle 2

adell [148]
I made a probability tree. Pls. see attachment. 

Based on the probability tree I made, below are the probabilities

Probability of a student accepted at both Dartmouth and Harvard is:
50% x 40% = 20%

Probability of a student accepted at Dartmouth but not Harvard is:
50% x 60% = 30%

Probability of a student not accepted at Dartmouth but accepted in Harvard is:
50% x 20% = 10%

Probability of a student not accepted in both schools is:
50% x 80% = 40%

As you can see, these probabilities total 100%
