Answer: A = 128 in^2

Explanation:
Assume:
X is the width
And 2x is the length

We know Perimeter = 48

P = 2(x + 2x) = 48
2x + 4x = 48
6x = 48
x = 8

Now we found the width which is 8
And the length is 2 times the width which is 8 x 2 = 16

Now that we have both length and width we can find the area

A = 16 x 8 = 128

Answer:

  • 128 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2w + 2l

l = 2w

48 = 2w + 2×2w

48 = 2w + 4w

48 = 6w

w = 48 : 6

w = 8 inches

l = 2w

l = 2×8inches

l = 16 inches

A = w×l

= 8in × 16in

= 128 inches²

A widget company produces 25 widgets a day,5 of which are defective.Find the probability of selecting 5 widgets from the 25 prod
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

0.292

Step-by-step explanation:

Combinations can be used to solve the following problem.

We are choosing 5 widgets from 25 = ²⁵C₅

We want to select zero widgets from defective widgets = ⁵C₀

From the 20 non-defective widgets we want to select 5 = ²⁰C₅

So the probability is:

P = ( ⁵C₀ * ²⁰C₅) / ²⁰C₅

P = (1 * 15504) / 53130

= 15504/ 53130

=0.292 ..
