Answer:
L = 18 and w = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is found by A = l*w. Since the length here is 2 more than the width or 2 + w and the width is w, substitute these values and A = 288 to solve for w.
To solve for w, move 288 to the other side by subtraction. Then factor and solve.
Set each factor equal to 0 and solve.
w - 16 = 0 so w = 16
w + 18 = 0 so w = -18
Since w is a side length and length/distance cannot be negative, then w = 16 is the width of the rectangle.
This means the length is 16 + 2 = 18.
Make an equation system based on the problem
eg. a is the first number and b is the seond number
An equation for "<span>The sum of two numbers is 53" is
</span>⇒ a + b = 53
An equation for "<span>twice the first number minus three times the second number is 26"
</span>⇒ 2a - 3b = 26
<span>
Solve the equations by elimination and subtitution method
Eliminate a to find the value of b
a + b = 53 (multiplied by 2)
2a - 3b = 26
--------------------------------------
2a + 2b = 106
2a - 3b = 26
------------------- - (substract)
5b = 80
b = 80/5
b = 16
Subtitute the value of b to one of the equations
a + b = 53
a + 16 = 53
a = 53 - 16
a = 37
The numbers are 16 and 37</span>
P(H)=1/2, P(1)=1/6
P(H and 1)=(1/2)(1/6)=1/12 (≈8.33%)
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is shown in the image above.
Because triangles also equal a total of 180 degrees, the answer is B
