Answer:

The probability that they sit next to each other is 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that there are four seats within the row are first come, first served during boarding.

There are 4 seats and 2 customers (Karen and Georgia)

The total number of ways in which Karen and Georgia can sit is: ^4C_2

Now if they will sit together, then consider  Karen and Georgia as a single unit.

Thus, the number of ways in which they can sit together is: ^3C_1

The required probability is:

P=\frac{^3C_1}{^4C_2} \\\\P=\frac{3}{6}\\\\P=\frac{1}{2}

Hence, the probability that they sit next to each other is 50%.

What is the perimeter and area of length is 13 inches in width is 9.5 inches
love history [14]

Answer:

perimeter = 45 in.

area = 123.5 in.^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume this is a rectangle.

L = 13 in.

W = 9.5 in.

perimeter = 2(L + W) = 2(13 in. + 9.5 in.) = 2(22.5 in.) = 45 in.

area = LW = 13 in. * 9.5 in. = 123.5 in.^2
