Answer:
The probability that neither land on orange is (1/2)* (7/8) = 7/16. Hence, the probability that at least one lands on orange is 1 - 7/16 = 9/16.

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.
All you have to do is add all of the fractions up.
Answer:
.188 pounds per day
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 35 pounds gained in 186 days
