Answer:

Length is 45cm and Breadth is 33cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 156cm

Let the length be x

Breadth = x-12

Perimter = 2(l+b)

156 = 2(x-12+x)

156 = 2(2x-12)

156 = 4x-24

156+25 = 4x

180 = 4x

180÷4 = x

45 = x

Therefore, length is x = 45cm and breadth is x-12 = 45-12 = 33cm

OUR EQUATIONS

LENGTH = x

BREADTH = x-12

The Census Bureau's Current Population Survey shows that 28% of individuals, ages 25 and older, have completed four years of col

Answer:

19.35% probability that five will have completed four years of college

Step-by-step explanation:

For each individual chosen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have completed fourr years of college, or they have not. The probability of an adult completing four years of college is independent of any other adult. So the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

28% of individuals

This means that p = 0.25

For a sample of 15 individuals, ages 25 and older, what is the probability that five will have completed four years of college?

This is P(X = 5) when n = 15. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 5) = C_{15,5}.(0.28)^{5}.(0.72)^{10} = 0.1935

19.35% probability that five will have completed four years of college

What you do is you find the common denominator between the two fractions given.  the easiest is to just multiply them 

6*8=48

and then multiply each numerator by the number it's denominator is multiplied by

1*8=8  and 5*6=30

and now you have your new fractions, add them together

8/48+30/48=38/48

this leaves 10/48 as the people who were wearing shorts,  just simplify this and it's done

10/2    =5/24
