Answer:
The student was wrong. The probability is actually 1/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say you have question A and question B. You could have incorrect on A, and incorrect on B. Or, you could have incorrect on A, but a correct on B. Or, you could have an incorrect on B, but a correct on A. Or, both could be correct. <em><u>Since there are 4 different possibilities, the actual probability is 1/4.</u></em>
Let s represent the length of any one side of the original square. The longer side of the resulting rectangle is s + 9 and the shorter side s - 2.
The area of this rectangle is (s+9)(s-2) = 60 in^2.
This is a quadratic equation and can be solved using various methods. Let's rewrite this equation in standard form: s^2 + 7s - 18 = 60, or:
s^2 + 7s - 78 = 0. This factors as follows: (s+13)(s-6)=0, so that s = -13 and s= 6. Discard s = -13, since the side length cannot be negative. Then s = 6, and the area of the original square was 36 in^2.
