If two of the four expressions x + y, x + 5y, x – y, and 5x – y are chosen at random, what is the probability that their product
storchak [24]

Answer:

  1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The product will only be of the required form if the two chosen factors are of the form (x +by) and (x -by).

For the factor (x+y), there is also a factor (x-y) on the list. For the factor (x+5y), there is no factor (x-5y) available.

So, of the (4·3)/2 = 6 possible ways to choose two expressions from the four given expressions, only one pair of the 6 will have a product of the required form.

The probability is 1/6.
