Markita bought a roll of carpet that is 8.5 feet wide. the maximum area the carpet will cover is 136 square feet. what is the longest possible length of this carpet?

16 feet in length.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation, you are given the area and the width of the full carpet, furthermore, you must reverse the formula for area to find the length, as so:

Area Formula: A= l • w

Given: 136= l • 8.5

l = 136 ÷ 8.5

l = 16 feet

I hope this was helpful!

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
