There are 12 red pens, 20 blue pens and 5 black pens in a bag. What is the probability that you will pick a black pen? Round
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The probability of getting a black pen from the bag is 13.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the percentage probability that a black pen will be obtained from the bag, the following calculation must be performed:

12 + 20 + 5 = 37

37 = 100%

5 = X

(5 x 100) / 37 = X

500/37 = X

13.5 = X

Thus, it is determined that the totality of pens is 100%, and through a cross multiplication the percentage of the 5 black pens with respect to the total of pens is obtained.

Therefore, the probability of getting a black pen from the bag is 13.5%.

the width of a rectangle is x centimetres and its length is (x+ 2) cm. Write down an expression for the perimeter of the rectang
yKpoI14uk [10]

Given:

The width of a rectangle is x centimeters and its length is (x+ 2) cm.

To find:

The expression for the perimeter of the rectangle.

Solution:

We know that, perimeter of a rectangle is

Perimeter=2(Length+Width)

We have,

Width = x cm

Length = (x+2) cm

Putting these values in the above formula, we get

Perimeter=2((x+2)+x)

Perimeter=2(2x+2)

Perimeter=2(2x)+2(2)

Perimeter=4x+4

Therefore, the required expression for the perimeter of the rectangle is (4x+4) cm.
