First, you want to establish your equations.
L=7W-2
P=60
This is what we already know. To find the width, we have to plug in what we know into P=2(L+W), our equation to find perimeter.
60=2(7W-2+W)
Now that we only have 1 variable, we can solve.
First, distribute the 2.
60=14W-4+2W
Next, combine like terms.
60=16W-4
Then, add four to both sides.
64=16W
Lastly, divide both sides by 16
W=4
To find the length, we plug in our width.
7W-2
7(4)-2
28-2
L=26
Probability of rolling a sum of 9 or a sum that is even from two number cubes is
11/18
Explanation:
When a dice is rolled there are different ways in which
9. can be obtained, which are (3,6) or (4,5) or (5,4) or (6,3). 4 options. As in all there are
6⋅6=36 options, probability is 4/36 or 1/9.
For getting an even number as sum, we can have (1,1) or (1.3) or (1,5) or (2,2) or (2,4) or (2,6) or (3,1) or (3,3) or (3,5) or (4,2) or (4,4) or (4,6) or (5,1) or (5,3) or (5,5) or (6,2) or (6,4) or (6,6) 18 options, probability is 18/36 or 1/2.
Note that the two events (getting 9 or even sum) are mutually exclusive, the probabilities can be just added i.e. combined probability is
1/9+1/2=2+9/18i.e. 11/18
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
8 ft by 4 ft
8ft x 4ft = 32 ft
8ft + 8 ft = 16 ft 4 ft + 4 ft = 8 ft
16ft + 8 ft = 24 ft
