Answer:
a) P(X∩Y) = 0.2
b) = 0.16
c) P = 0.47
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call X the event that the motorist must stop at the first signal and Y the event that the motorist must stop at the second signal.
So, P(X) = 0.36, P(Y) = 0.51 and P(X∪Y) = 0.67
Then, the probability P(X∩Y) that the motorist must stop at both signal can be calculated as:
P(X∩Y) = P(X) + P(Y) - P(X∪Y)
P(X∩Y) = 0.36 + 0.51 - 0.67
P(X∩Y) = 0.2
On the other hand, the probability that he must stop at the first signal but not at the second one can be calculated as:
= P(X) - P(X∩Y)
= 0.36 - 0.2 = 0.16
At the same way, the probability that he must stop at the second signal but not at the first one can be calculated as:
= P(Y) - P(X∩Y)
= 0.51 - 0.2 = 0.31
So, the probability that he must stop at exactly one signal is:

Answer: The length is 13cm and the width is 7cm
Step-by-step explanation:
For a rectangle of length L and width W, the area is:
A = W*L
In this case we have:
L = (2*x + 9) cm
W=(3*x + 1) cm
Then the area of the rectangle is:
A = (2*x + 9)*(3*x + 1) cm^2
A = (6*x^2 + 2*x + 27*x + 9) cm^2
A = (6*x^2 + 29*x + 9) cm^2
now we remove two squares with sides of x cm
The area of each one of these squares is (x cm)*(x cm) = x^2 cm^2
Then the area of the figure will be:
area = (6*x^2 + 29*x + 9) cm^2 - (2*x^2 ) cm^2
area = (4*x^2 + 29*x + 9) cm^2
Now we know that the area of this shape is 83 cm^2, then we need to solve:
83 cm^2 = (4*x^2 + 29*x + 9) cm^2
0 = (4*x^2 + 29*x + 9) cm^2 - 83 cm^2
0 = (4*x^2 + 29*x - 74) cm^2
Then we need to solve:
0 = 4*x^2 + 29*x - 74
Here we can use Bhaskara's equation, the solutions of this equation are given by:
Then the two solutions are:
x = (-29 - 45)/8 = -9.25 (for how the length and width are defined, we can not have x as a negative number, then this solution can be discarded).
The other solution is:
x = (-29 + 45)/8 = 2
x = 2
Then the length and width of the rectangle are:
Length = (2*2 + 9)cm = 13 cm
Width = (3*2 + 1)cm = 7cm
