Answer:

option B. 18,12,12

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter= 60 units

(consider a rectangle with sides a,b,c & d in order)

a= 18 units (given)

c=18 units (since opp. sides of a rectangle are equal)

now the remaining length= 60-(18+18)

                                          = 60 - 36

                                          = 24

so the sum of the remaining sides, ie, b+d= 24

since b and d are equal (opp.sides of a rect.)

b=d=24/2=12

therefore, b=12; c=18; d=12

i really hope i'm clear...but if i'm not then please do ask...

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a plane shape is the distance around the shape. The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle expressed as

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

The rectangle has for side. Two parallel and opposite sides are equal. There, if the length of one side of the rectangle is 18 units, it means that the length of the opposite side is also 18 units.

Since the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 units, it means that

2(18 + W) = 60

18 + W = 60/2 = 30

W = 30 - 18 = 12

Therefore, the lengths, in units, of the other three sides are 18 , 12 and 12 units

<h3>What is the probability you will have selected 2 five-dollar bills?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the piggy bank contains; 4 one-dollar bills and 4 five-dollar bills to make a total of 8 bills.

Hence, provided the probability events are carried out with replacement, the probability to have selected 2 five-dollar bills is;

= 4/8 × 4/8

= 1/4.
