Part (a)

<h3>Answer: 2(2.4+w) = 14.2</h3>

--------------

Explanation:

L = 2.4 = length

W = unknown width

The perimeter of any rectangle is P = 2(L+W)

We replace L with 2.4, and replace P with 14.2 to get 14.2 = 2(2.4+w) which is equivalent to 2(2.4+w) = 14.2

========================================================

Part (b)

<h3>Answer:   w = 4.7</h3>

--------------

Explanation:

We'll solve the equation we set up in part (a)

2(2.4+w) = 14.2

2(2.4)+2(w) = 14.2

4.8+2w = 14.2

2w = 14.2-4.8

2w = 9.4

w = 9.4/2

w = 4.7

The width must be 4.7 cm.

Nikolai has a jar filled with 120 marbles. he has 72 red marbles, 17 blue marbles, 13 green marbles, and 18 purple marbles. what
asambeis [7]
To find the probability of both of these occurring, you will multiply the probability of choosing a blue marble by the probability of choosing a purple marble (with no replacement after the first one).

Probability of choosing a blue marble:  17/120
Probability of choosing a purple marble: 18/119

17/120 x 18/119 = 3/140

You will have a 3/140 chance of both of these occurring.
