The perimeter (P) of any rectangular figure is calculated through the formula,
                                        P = 2L + 2W
where L and W are length and width, respectively. With the condition that length should be twice the width, it may be expressed as L = 2W. Substituting the given values,
                                          270 yards = 2(2W) + 2W
Solving for W gives W = 45. From this, L is equal to 90. Thus, the dimensions are W = 45 yards and L = 90 yards.

2. An online bookstore sells both print books and e-books (books in an electronic format). Customers can pay with either a gift
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

a.0.12

b. Dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The two events mentioned here are " print book is purchases" and "customer using gift card". P(P)=0.6 and P(C)=0.2. we have to calculate the probability of print book selection for purchase and payment is made through gift card i.e. P(P∩C). P(P∩C)=P(P)*P(C)=0.6*0.2=0.12.

b. If P(A∩B)=P(A)*P(B), then the two events are independent. Here in the given situation two independent variables are "purchase of e-book" and  "payment made using gift card"

P(E)=0.4

P(G)=0.2

P(E and G)=P(E∩G)=0.1

P(E)*P(G)=0.4*0.2=0.08 that is not equal to 0.1. So, the two events "e-book is purchased" and "Payment made by customer using gift card" are not independent.

What is the missing constant term in the perfect square that starts with x^2 - 20x
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a perfect square trinomial, you want to divide the use the following equation to find the missing constant:

(\frac{b}{2} )^{2} when the quadratic is in standard form.

In this case, we would divide -20 by 2 and square it

-20/2 = -10

(-10)^2 = 100
