Answer:  \\The\: width\: is \: 6 \:  {in}^{2}  \\ \\  Step\: by\: step\: explanation: \\ Let \:  x  \: be \:  the  \: width  \: of  \: the \:  rectangle,\: x > 0\Rightarrow the \: length:2x + 8 \\ We  \: have  \: an \:  equation:x(2x + 8) = 120 \\ \Leftrightarrow 2 {x}^{2}  + 8x  + 8= 128 \\ \Leftrightarrow  {x}^{2}  + 4x   + 4 = 64 \\ \Leftrightarrow {(x + 2)}^{2}  = 64 \\ \Leftrightarrow x + 2 =  \pm8 \\ \Leftrightarrow x = 6 \:  \vee \: x =  - 10 \\ \Rightarrow x = 6 \: (x > 0)

If Samantha can pay off her loan in 36 months at a 10% interest rate rather than in 48 months at a 12% interest rate, how much m
Ymorist [56]
Hi there
The simple interest formula is
I=prt
I interest changes
P amount of the loan 6000
R interest rate
T time( number of months/12 months)

The interest in 36 months at a 10%
I=6,000×0.1×(36÷12)=1,800
The interest in 48 months at a 12%
6,000×0.12×(48÷12)=2,880
she will save
2,880−1,800=1,080

Good luck!

Consider randomly selecting a student at a certain university, and let A denote the event that the selected individual has a Vis
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Visa card is represented by P(A)

MasterCard is represented by P(B)

P(A)= 0.6

P(A')=0.4

P(B)=0.5

P(B')=0.5

P(A∩B)=0.35

1. P(A U B) =?

P(A U B)= P(A)+P(B)-P(A ∩ B)

P(A U B)=0.6+0.5-0.35

P(A U B)= 0.75

The probability of student that has least one of the cards is 0.75

2. Probability of the neither of the student have the card is given as

P(A U B)'=1-P(A U B)

P(A U B)= 1-0.75

P(A U B)= 0.25

3. Probability of Visa card only,

P(A)= 0.6

P(A) only means students who has visa card but not MasterCard.

P(A) only= P(A) - P(A ∩ B)

P(A) only=0.6-0.35

P(A) only=0.25.

4. Compute the following

a. A ∩ B'

b. A ∪ B'

c. A' ∪ B'

d. A' ∩ B'

e. A' ∩ B

a. A ∩ B'

P(A∩ B') implies that the probability of A without B i.e probability of A only and it has been obtain in question 3.

P(A ∩ B')= P(A-B)=P(A)-P(A∩ B)

P(A∩ B')= 0.6-0.35

P(A∩ B')= 0.25

b. P(A ∪ B')

P(A ∪ B')= P(A)+P(B')-P(A ∩ B')

P(A ∪ B')= 0.6+0.5-0.25

P(A ∪ B')= 0.85

c. P(A' ∪ B')= P(A')+P(B')-P(A' ∩ B')

But using Demorgan theorem

P(A∩B)'=P(A' ∪ B')

P(A∩B)'=1-P(A∩B)

P(A∩B)'=1-0.35

P(A∩B)'=0.65

Then, P(A∩B)'=P(A' ∪ B')= 0.65

d. P( A' ∩ B' )

Using demorgan theorem

P(A U B)'= P(A' ∩ B')

P(A U B)'= 1-P(A U B)

P(A' ∩ B')= 1-0.75

P(A' ∩ B')= 0.25

P(A U B)'= P(A' ∩ B')=0.25

e. P(A' ∩ B)= P(B ∩ A') commutative law

Then, P(B ∩ A') = P(B) only

P(B ∩ A') = P(B) -P(A ∩ B)

P(B ∩ A') =0.5 -0.35

P(B ∩ A') =0.15

P(A' ∩ B)= P(B ∩ A') =0.15
