A formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P=2l+2w

Mathematics

Radda [10]3 years ago

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the following formula: P = 2W + 2L
To solve this formula for W, the goal is to isolate this variable to one side of the equation such that the width of the rectangle (W) can be solved when given its perimeter (P) and length (L).
P = 2W + 2L
subtract 2L from both sides of the equation
P - 2L = 2W + 2L - 2L
P - 2L = 2W
divide both sides of the equation by 2
(P - 2L)/2 = (2W)/2
(P - 2L)/2 = (2/2)W
(P - 2L)/2 = (1)W
(P - 2L)/2 = W
Thus, given that the perimeter (P) of a rectangle is defined by P = 2W + 2L ,
then its width (W) is given by W = (P - 2L)/2

If you flip the five coins, and the probability of one coin being "tails" is 0.50, what is the probability of getting "tails" on
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: 0.03125

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the probability of getting a tail , we toss a fair coin = 0.5

Given : Total number of trials = 5

Using binomial probability formula :

P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}, where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trails, n is total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

The probability of getting "tails" on all five coins :_

P(x=5)=^5C_5(0.5)^5(1-0.5)^0=(1)(0.5)^5=0.03125

Hence,  the probability of getting "tails" on all five coins =0.03125

If a car travels 825 miles in 15 hours and the car travels at an constant rate how many miles does the car travel in 1 hour?
Doss [256]

Answer:

55 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

DIstance =  825 miles

Time = 15 hours

Speed= distance/time

Speed= 825/15

Speed= 55  miles per hour

Given that we want to find the distance traveled in 1 hour, we have

Distance= Speed*time

Distance= 55*1

Distance= 55 miles

Hence the car will travel 55 miles in 1 hour

A service station checks Mr. Gittleboro's radiator and finds it contains only 30% antifreeze. If the radiator holds 10 quarts an
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2.86 quarts ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The initial quantity of the Mr. Gittleboro's radiator that contains 30% antifreeze = 10 quarts,

Let x quarts of pure antifreeze replaced x quarts of Mr. Gittleboro's radiator to bring it up to a required 50% antifreeze,

So, the quantity of 30% antifreeze radiator after drained off x quarts = (10-x) quarts

Also, the quantity of final antifreeze radiator 50% antifreeze = 10 quarts

Thus, we can write,

30% of (10-x) + 100% of x = 50% of 10

30(10-x) + 100x = 500

300 - 30x + 100x = 500

300 + 70x = 500

70x = 200

x = 2.85714285714 quarts ≈ 2.86 quarts
