Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{23 ft by 20 ft}}

Step-by-step explanation:

        Let x = the width of the garden

Then x + 3 = the length of the garden

Area of garden = length × width

                      A = lw = x(x+ 3)

\begin{array}{rcl}x( x+ 3)& = & 460\\x^{2} + 3x& = &460\\x^{2} + 3x - 460& = &0\\x + 23 = 0 & \text{or} & x - 20 = 0\\x = -23 & \text{or} & \mathbf{x = 20}\\\end{array}

 width = x                    = 20 ft

length = x + 3 = 20 +3 = 23 ft

\text{The dimensions of the garden are $\large \boxed{\textbf{23 ft by 20 ft}}$}

Check:

\begin{array}{rcl}20(20 + 3) & = &460\\20(23) & = & 460\\460 & = & 460\\\end{array}

OK.

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the variable as follows:

M = male student

F = female student

Y = ate breakfast

N = did not ate breakfast

(a)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected student ate breakfast as follows:

P(Y)=\frac{n(Y)}{N}\\\\=\frac{198}{330}\\\\=0.60

(b)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected student is female and ate breakfast as follows:

P(F\cap Y)=\frac{n(F\cap Y)}{N}\\\\=\frac{121}{330}\\\\=0.367

(c)

Compute the probability a randomly selected student is male, given that the student ate breakfast as follows:

P(M|Y)=\frac{n(M\cap Y)}{n(Y)}\\\\=\frac{77}{198}\\\\=0.389

(d)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected student ate breakfast, given that the student is male as follows:

P(Y|M)=\frac{n(Y\cap M)}{n(M)}\\\\=\frac{77}{154}\\\\=0.50

(e)

Compute probability of the student selected "is male" or "did not eat breakfast" as follows:

P(M\cup N)=P(M)+P(N)-P(M\cap N)\\\\=\frac{n(M)}{N}+\frac{n(N)}{N}-\frac{n(M\cap N)}{N}\\\\=\frac{n(M)-n(N)-n(M\cap N)}{N}\\\\=\frac{154+132-77}{330}\\\\=0.633

(f)

Compute the probability of "is male and did not eat breakfast as follows:

P(M\cap N)=\frac{n(M\cap N)}{N}\\\\=\frac{77}{330}\\\\=0.233
