Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is 0.143

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B).

    since given that P(A) = Probability of getting puncture = 0.08

                                P(B) = probability of getting smashed corner = 0.07

                       P(A∩B) = probability of getting both puncture and smashed corner = 0.007

                    P(A∪B) = probability of getting any of them

   so P(A∪B) = 0.08 + 0.07 -0.007 = O.143

Tatami mats are used as a floor covering in japan. One possible layout uses four identical rectangular mats and one square mat,
Maksim231197 [3]

a) Given

Total area = 81 feet squared.

 Let the area of the square mat = x feet.

From question, area of the rectangular mat is twice that of square mat.

 So, the area of the rectangular mat = 2 x feet.

Now,

Total area = 81 feet squared

Then,

      4(2 x) + x = 81\\ \\ 9 x = 81\\ \\  x = \frac{81}{9}\\ \\ x = 9\\

Hence  the area of the one rectangular mat = 2*9 = 18 feet squared

b) Let the width of the rectangular mat = y feet.

  Then length of the mat = 2 y feet.

   Area of the rectangle = 2 y* y = 2 y^{2}

   and area of rectangle = 18 feet squared.

   So,

 2 y^{2} = 18\\ y^{2} = 9\\ y= \pm3\\

Width can not be negative.

Hence, the width of the rectangular mat = 3 feet

and  length of the rectangular mat = 3*2 = 6 feet

Solve for x using the quadratic formula x^2-6x +9=0
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

3 both ways x = 3

EXPLANATION:

plug in inputs and do a little simplifying we get

x = 6 ± √(36-36) all of that over 2

So we simplify and we get 6±sqrt(0) / 2

Then we get 6/2 = 3

x-0 = x+0

thats why there is only one answer
