Answer: The length is 12 feet and the width is 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the bedroom closet.

Let W represent the width of the bedroom closet..

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

The perimeter of the bedroom closet is 32 ft. This means that

2(L + W) = 32

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

L + W = 32/2

L + W = 16

The area of the bedroom closet is 48 ft². This means that

LW = 48 - - - - - - - -- - - - - - 1

Substituting L = 16 - W into equation 1, it becomes

W(16 - W) = 48

16W - W² = 48

W² - 16W + 48 = 0

W² - 12W - 4W + 48 = 0

W(W - 12) - 4(W - 12) = 0

W - 12 = 0 or W - 4 = 0

W = 12 or W = 4

L = 16 - 4 = 12

Answer:

a

$P(U |D ) = 0.198$

b

$P(O\ n \ B) = 0.188$

c

$P(O | B) = 0.498$

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of deaths is mathematically represented as

$T = 16 + 23 + \cdots + 16$

$T =623$

The total number of deaths in 1996 - 2000 is mathematically represented as

$T_a = 16 + 23+ \cdots + 30$

$T_a = 235$

The total number of deaths in 2001 - 2005 is mathematically represented as

$T_b = 17 + 16 + \cdots + 23$

$T_b = 206$

The total number of deaths in 2006 - 2010 is mathematically represented as

$T_c = 15 + 17 + \cdots + 16$

$T_d = 182$

Generally the the probability that it would occur under the tree given that the death was after 2000 is mathematically represented as

$P(U |D ) = \frac{P(A \ n\ U )}{P(A)}$

Here $P(A \ n\ U )$ represents the probability that it was after 2000 and it was under the tree and this is mathematically represented as

$P(A \ n\ U ) = \frac{Z}{ T}$

Here Z is the total number of death under the tree after 2000 and it is mathematically represented as

$Z = 35 + 42$

=> $Z = 77$

=> $P(A \ n\ U ) = \frac{77}{ 623}$

=>

Also

$P(A)$ is the probability of the death occurring after 2000 and this is mathematically represented as

$P(A) = \frac{T_b + T_c}{ T}$

=> $P(A) = \frac{ 206+ 182}{623}$

=>

So

$P(U |D ) = \frac{\frac{77}{ 623} }{ \frac{ 206+ 182}{623}}$

=> $P(U |D ) = 0.198$

Generally the probability that the death was from camping or being outside and was before 2001 is mathematically represented as

$P(O | B) = \frac{T_z}{ T}$

Here $T_z$ is the total number of death outside / camping before 2001 and the value is 117

So

$P(O \ n \ B) = \frac{117}{623}$

=> $P(O\ n \ B) = 0.188$

Generally the probability that the death was from camping or being outside given that it was before 2001 is mathematically represented as

$P(O | B) = \frac{ P( O \ n \ B)}{ P(B)}$

Here $P(B)$ is the probability that it was before 2001 , this is mathematically represented as

$P(B ) = \frac{T_a}{T}$

=> $P(B ) = \frac{235}{623}$

So

$P(O | B) = \frac{ \frac{117}{623}}{ \frac{235}{623}}$

=> $P(O | B) = 0.498$
