I am going to show you how easy this is. Once you understand, you will be able to do this forever.
:
Assuming the side of the rectangle are (L) length and (W) width, the perimeter:
2L + 2W = 234
:
"the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide,", the equation for this statement:
L = 2W
:
In the first equation, we can replace L with 2W, then we have
2(2W) + 2W = 234
4W + 2W = 234
6W = 234
Divide both sides by 6
W = 234%2F6
W = 39 meters is the width
:
Remember it said the length is twice the width, therefore:
L = 2(39)
L = 78 meters is the length
:
:
Check this by finding the perimeter with these values
2(78) + 2(39) =
156 + 78 = 234
Answer:
Events E and F are independent.
Step-by-step explanation:
E = {multiple of 3} = {3, 6, 9, 12}
P(E) = 4/12
F = {even number} = {2, 4, 6, 8. 10, 12}
P(F) = 6/12
E and F = {even and multiple of 3} = {6, 12}
P(E∩F) = 2/12
In order for two events to be independent the following relationship must be true:

Testing this property:

The relationship holds true, thus events E and F are independent.
No, without further information you can't tell which number is greater. This is because there could be any amount of other digits to the right, which changes the value of the leftmost digit depending on the number it is a part of.
Hope this helps! :)
