Answer: Probability = 90%

Step-by-step explanation:

In a drawer we have:

2 black shirts

7 white shirts

11 gray shirts

If we would randomly pick a shirt, what are the chances of it not being black?

To do that, we first need to calculate the probability of getting a black shirt.

To calculate that, we need to divide the number of black shirts by the total number of shirts.

Black shirts = 2

Total shirts = 2 + 7 + 11 = 20

That will be 2 black shirts divided by 20.

We get 0.1

If we multiply 0.1 by 100%, we get a 10% chance to get a black shirt.

Now, to know to chances of not getting a black shirt, we just need to subtract 10% from 100%.

And that will be 90% chances of not getting a black shirt.

Probability = 90%

Hope I Helped!

Each of the triangles are equal in base length, height, and area. Remember the formula for the area of a triangle. The area of any triangle is 1/2 times the length of the base (which, in the polygon, is the length of a side) multiplied by the height (which is the same as the apothem in regular polygon).

He base of a pentagonal prism has an area of 2.4 m2. The prism has a volume of 4.8 m3. What is its height? Use sketches, formula
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The height of the prism is 2m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The volume of pentagonal prism, V = 4.8 m^3

Area of the prism, A = 2.4 m^2

To determine the height of the prism, we consider the following;

Volume of any prism = Area of the prism x height of the prism

Height of the prism = volume of the prism / Area of the prism

Height of the prism = 4.8 / 2.4

Height of the prism = 2 m

Therefore, the height of the prism is 2m
