Answer:

lenght=57

width=33

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated using the formula

P=2(w+l) where P is the perimeter, w is the width and l is the length.

We know

P=180

lenght (l) = x (unknown value)

width (w)= x-24

Now we change these values in the formula

180=2((x-24)+x)

180=2(x-24+x)

180=2(2x-24)

180=4x-48

180+48=4x

228=4x

x=228/4

x=57

Therefore

P=180

w= x-24 =57-24 <em>=33</em>

<em>l=57</em>

To confirm:

P=2(w+l)=2(33+57)=2(90)=180

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

In studying the insurance preferences of homeowners the following conclusions are made: A homeowner is three times as likely to
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

0.632

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a homeowner is three times as likely to purchase additional jewelry coverage as additional electronics coverage

If probability of purchasing additional electronics coverage = p, then prob of purchasing jewelry coverage = 3p

The two events are independent hence joint probability is product of these two.

i.e. P(both) = p(3p) =3p^2

This is given as 0.2

3p^2 =0.2\\p = 0.258

the probability that a homeowner purchases exactly one coverage.

=P(AUB)-P(A \bigcap B)

= Prob he purchases I + prob he purchases II-2(prob he purchases both)

= 0.258+3(0.258)-2(0.2)\\=0.632
