Given:
The probability for success of an event is P(A)
The probability of success of a second, independent event is P(B).
To find:
The probability of both events occurring, in that order.
Solution:
If A and B are two independent events, then
It is given that,
The probability for success of an event is P(A)
The probability of success of a second, independent event is P(B).
Since A and B both are independent event and we need to find the probability of both events occurring, in that order, i.e., 
, therefore .
Hence, the correct option is A.
Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) = Waist Measurement / Hip Measurement
Waist Measurement = 40 inches
Hip Measurement = 2 inches less = (40 -2) = 38 inches.
Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) = 40/38 = 1.0526
Don’t take my word for it but if there’s no x then it might be undefined.
Sorry if I’m incorrect
You can write two equations using the given information:
.. L = W +8
.. L * W = 609
Using substitution, you get a quadratic.
.. (W +8) * W = 609
.. W^2 +8W -609 = 0
Not surprisingly, you're looking for factors of 609 that differ by 8.
.. 609 = 1*609 = 3*203 = 7*87 = 21*29
The last two are the factors of interest.
.. (W +29)(W -21) = 0
The width of the rectangle is 21 feet, the length is 29 feet.

Sometimes it is easier to work with the average dimension. Here, let that be x. Then you have
.. (x +4)(x -4) = 609
.. x^2 -16 = 609
.. x^2 = 625 = 25^2 . . . . . . . one of your memorized math facts
So, the dimensions are
.. 25 +4 = 29 by 25 -4 = 21, that is, 29 ft by 21 ft.
