Answer: 0.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The number of vowels in the bag = 28

The number of consonants= 12

The total number of letters in the bag = 28+12=40

Probability of choosing consonant :-

P(C)=\dfrac{12}{40}=\dfrac{3}{10}

After replacement the total number of letters remains same.

Probability of choosing vowel :-

P(V)=\dfrac{28}{40}=\dfrac{7}{10}

Now, the  probability you will choose a consonant and then a vowel (independent events) is given by :-

P(C)\times P(V)=\dfrac{3}{10}\times\dfrac{7}{10}=\dfrac{21}{100}=0.21

The length of a rectangle is 10 yards more than the width. If the perimeter is 68 yards, what are the length and width?
quester [9]

Divide the perimeter by 2, this will give you the sum of one length and one width.

68/2 = 34 yards

Now the length is  10 yards more, so subtract 10 from the 34 and divide by 2 again:

34 - 10 = 24

24 /2 = 12

The width is 12 yards.

The length is 12 + 10 = 22 yards.
