Answer:
(mn+n²)/(m+n)
Step-by-step explanation:
probability of blue marble= n/(n+m)
probability of red marble= m/(n+m)
probability that process stops = Probability of both blue + probability of both red= n/(n+m) × n/(n+m) + m/(n+m)×m/(n+m)
= (n²+m²)/(n+m)²
P(1st marbel is blue)= P(blue and red) + P(blue and blue)
= mn/(n+m) + n²/(n+m)
= (mn+n²)/(m+n)
P(1st marble is blue | process stops)= ( (mn+n²)/(m+n)× (n²+m²)/(n+m)²)/ ((n²+m²)/(n+m)²)
= (mn+n²)/(m+n)
Answer:
A. 4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying,
P = 2(L+W)............. Equation 1
Where P = Perimter of the rectangle, L = Length of the rectangle, W = width of the rectangle.
make W the subject of the equation
W = (P/2)-L............ Equation 2
From the question,
Given: P = 32 inches, L = 1 foot (Convert from Foot to inches), L = 12 inches
Substitute these values into equation 2
W = (32/2)-12
W = 16-12
W = 4 inches.
Hence the right option is A.
