Answer:

60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

2x the width and 2x the length gives you the perimeter. This can be represented by the equation:

2w + 2L = P

Use the information given in the word problem to fill in the variables.

2(59) + 2L = 238

118 + 2L = 238

move 118 to the other side of the equation.

2L = 238 - 118

2L = 120

move 2 to the other side of the equation.

L = $\frac{120}{2}$

L = 60

Answer: The required probability is $\dfrac{8}{125}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of spruce tree = 20

Number of maple tree = 50

Total trees = 70

We need to find the experimental probability that the next tree Colleen to get a spruce tree.

So, the probability would be :

$(\dfrac{20}{50})^3=(\dfrac{2}{5})^3=\dfrac{8}{125}$

Hence, the required probability is $\dfrac{8}{125}$
