Answer:

9/14.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability is given as a fraction or percentage.

9:5 odds in favour of a horse winning means the horse will win 9 races for every 5 it does not win.

So the probability that this horse will win is 9/(9+5)

= 9/14.

Does the line represented by the equation: y=-2x+5 have a positive slope?
