Answer:

length = 27

breadth = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to determine the perimeter of the rectangle is given as

6x-10=86

the solution to above is x=16

Hence one of the side is 16. The formula for perimeter is given as

P=2(l+b)

if b=x =16

and P=86

replacing them inthe formula for perimeter

86=2(l+16)

dividing both sides by 2 we get

43=16+l

subtracting 16 from both sides we get

27=l

Hence the length and breadth of the rectangle are 27 and 16 respectively

RSB [31]

Answer:

\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Prefer Pizza}&\text{Do not Prefer Pizza}&\text{Total}\\\text{Prefer Punch}&23&29&52\\\text{Do not Prefer Punch}&66&7&73\\\text{Total}&89&36&125\end{array}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 125 members.

89 of them preferred pizza and 23 of 89 preferred punch, so 89-23=66 preferred only pizza.

52 members preferred punch, 23 of them preferred both pizza and punch, so 52-23=29 preferred only punch.

Now,

66 members preferred only pizza,

23 members preferred both,

29 members preferred only punch,

125-66-23-29=7 members did not prefer both

The two-way table is

\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Prefer Pizza}&\text{Do not Prefer Pizza}&\text{Total}\\\text{Prefer Punch}&23&29&52\\\text{Do not Prefer Punch}&66&7&73\\\text{Total}&89&36&125\end{array}
