Let, width = x, length = x+9

perimeter = 2(l+w)

=2(x+x+9)=182

=2(2x+9)=182

=4x+18 = 182

=4x = 164

=x = 41

Length would be (x+9) = 41+9 = 50 ft

20 people applied for a job. Everyone either has a school certificate or diploma or even both. If 14 have school certificates an

STatiana [176]

Given:

Either has a school certificate or diploma or even both = 20 people

Having school certificates = 14

Having diplomas = 11

To find:

The number of people who have a school certificate only.

Solution:

Let A be the set of people who have school certificates and B be the set of people who have diplomas.

According to the given information, we have

$n(A)=14$

$n(B)=11$

$n(A\cup B)=20$

We know that,

$n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)$

$20=14+11-n(A\cap B)$

$20=25-n(A\cap B)$

Subtract both sides by 25.

$20-25=-n(A\cap B)$

$-5=-n(A\cap B)$

$5=n(A\cap B)$

We need to find the number of people who have a school certificate only, i.e. $n(A\cap B')$ .

$n(A\cap B')=n(A)-n(A\cap B)$

$n(A\cap B')=14-5$

$n(A\cap B')=9$

Therefore, 9 people have a school certificate only.

A toothbrush and toothpaste cost one dollar and ten cents total. The toothbrush costs a dollar more than the toothpaste. How muc

Aleks [24]

Cost of the toothbrush and the toothpaste together = $1.10
Let us assume the cost of the toothpaste = x
Then
The cost of the toothbrush is = (x + 1) dollar
Then we can write the equation as
x + x+ 1 = 1.10
2x + 1 = 1.10
2x = 1.10 - 1
2x = 0.10
x = 0.10/2
= .05 dollars
So the cost of the toothpaste is 0.05 dollars.<span>I hope the procedure is clear to you.</span>
