Answer:

The width is 13, the length is 17


Step-by-step explanation:

You have to write an expression to represent the area of the rectangle. The width can be w, and the length can be 2w-9. Since the parking lot is a rectangle, you multiply the length by the width to get your area. w(2w-9) is 2w^2-9w=221. The only value of w that satisfies this equation when substituted is 13, so that is your width. 2(13)-9 is 26-9 is 17, so the length is 17.

An 8-sided fair die is rolled twice and the product of the two numbers obtained when the die is rolled two times is calculated.
ELEN [110]

Answer:

(a)

\left[\begin{array}{ccccccccc} &1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8\\1&1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8\\2&2&4&6&8&10&12&14&16\\3&3&6&9&12&15&18&21&24\\4&4&8&12&16&20&24&28&32\\5&5&10&15&20&25&30&35&40\\6&6&12&18&24&30&36&42&48\\7&7&14&21&28&35&42&49&56\\8&8&16&24&32&40&48&56&64\end{array}\right]

(b)

(i)probability that the product of the two numbers is a prime number=7/64

(ii)probability that the product of the two numbers is not a perfect square=56/64

(iii)probability that the product of the two numbers is a multiple of 5 =15/64

(iv)probability that the product of the two numbers is Less than or equal to 21 =40/64

(v) probability that the product of the two numbers is divisible by 4 or 6 =42/64

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) 8-sided fair die implies each die can have outcomes 1,2,3,4,5.6,7,8 with equal chances.

To draw the possibility diagram of the product of the two numbers appearing on the die in each throw, we put the outcomes of both dies side by side and find the product of possible outcomes.

(b) probability= Number of outcome / Total number of outcomes

(i)probability that the product of the two numbers is a prime number=8/64=1/8

based on sample space, the prime numbers are 2,2,3,3,5,5,7,7

(ii)probability that the product of the two numbers is not a perfect square=56/64=7/8

based on sample space, only  1,4,9,16,25,36,49,64 are perfect square

(iii)probability that the product of the two numbers is a multiple of 5 =15/64

(iv)probability that the product of the two numbers is Less than or equal to 21 =40/64=5/8

(v) probability that the product of the two numbers is divisible by 4 or 6 =42/64=21/32

8-2w=6w-8 help lol!!!!!!!!!!!
NNADVOKAT [17]
W = 2. How do we find this out?

Put "w" as "2". 8-2(2)=6(2)-8
8 - 4 = 12 - 8.

Solve.

4 = 4

Hope this helps! ☺♥

Answer:

<h2>\huge \: b) \: 59 \: i {n}^{2}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand this</h3><h3>you need to know about</h3>
  • area of triangles
  • area of rectangle
  • PEMDAS
<h3>tips and formulas:</h3>
  • rectangle opposite sides are equal
  • area of rectangle:l×w
  • area of triangle:½×h×b
<h3>let's solve:</h3>

the area of the rectangle is

4×7 in²

28 in²

the area of above triangle is

½×6×7 in²

3×7 in²

21 in²

the area of left side triangle is

½×5×4 in²

2×5 in²

10 in²

therefore,

the area of the polygon is

28+21+10 in²

<h3>59 in²</h3>
