Work Shown:
The assumption is that no replacements are made for each selection.
5 red, 6 blue, 8 green
5+6+8 = 19 total
A = P(3 red) = (5/19)*(4/18)*(3/17) = 10/969
B = P(3 blue) = (6/19)*(5/18)*(4/17) = 20/969
C = P(3 green) = (8/19)*(7/18)*(6/17) = 56/969
D = P(3 all same color)
D = A+B+C
D = 10/969 + 20/969 + 56/969
D = (10+20+56)/969
D = 86/969
D = 0.08875
Answer:
w = 13yd, l = 18yd
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be width, so x+5 = length
Perimeter is sum of all 4 sides, and since opposite sides equal in rectangle,
P = 2(l+w)
= 2(x+5 +x)
= 4x + 10
Since perimeter is give as 62yd, equation is
4x + 10 = 62
4x = 52
x = 13
