Answer:

The width cannot be negative, so w = 9, l = 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

w = the width

l = w +7

A = l · w

A= w ( w + 7 )

144 = w2 + 7w

0 = w2 + 7w - 144

0 = ( w - 9 )( w + 16 )

The width cannot be negative, so w = 9, l = 16.

Levart [38]

Answer:

0.384

Step-by-step explanation:

pet supplier has a stock of parakeets of which 20% are blue parakeets

20/100 = 0.2 blue parakeets (success)

1-0.2 = 0.8 not parakeets (not success)

A pet store orders 3 parakeets from this supplier

we need to find the chance of getting exactly one blue from 3 parakeets

P(x=1)=nCr (p)^r(q)^{n-r}

n=3, r=1, p = 0.2 , q=0.8

P(x=1)=3C1 (0.2)^1(0.8)^{2}

0.384
