L = 2w - 3

p = 264

2(L + w) = p

2(2w - 3 + w) = 264

2(3w - 3) = 264

6w - 6 = 264

6w = 270

w = 270/6

w = 90/2

w = 45

L = 2w - 3

L = 2(45) - 3

L = 90 - 3

L = 87

The length is 87ft, and the width is 45ft

Luis said that when his dog was born, she had a mass of 370 grams and that when fully grown, his dog had a mass of 37 kilograms.
yanalaym [24]
I do not agree. This is because when the dog was a puppy, she was 370 grams not kilograms. Diego's mistake was mistaking grams for kilograms.

Over [174]

Answer:

0.0652173

Step-by-step explanation:

6 peanut butter cookies

6 sugar cookies

6 oatmeal cookies

Total number of cookies purchased = (6+6+6+6) = 24

Probability, P= required outcome /total possible outcomes

This is a selection without replacement probability problem :

P(peanut butter cookies) = 6/24 = 1/4

Then ;

P(chocolate chip cookie) = 6/23

Hence,

P(peanut butter cookies then chocolate chip cookie) = 1/4 * 6/23 = 0.0652173
