So, the full percentage would be 100%.
First, add the two percentages of red and green that has been taken up.
10+20=30
So, subtract that 30% from 100%.
100-30=70
So, the probability of the arrow landing on the green section is 70%.

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total probability theorem allows us to calculate the probability of an event from conditioned probabilities. The events have to form a complete system, that is, they contemplate all possibilities (the sum of their probabilities must be 100%).

Be the events,

A = The arrow falls in the color red

B = The arrow falls in the color blue

C = The arrow falls in the color green

The odds given are as follows:

P (A) = 20%

P (B) = 10%

P (C) =?

According to the total probability theorem,

P (A) + P (B) + P (C) = 100%

Isolating P (C), we have

P (C) = 100% - P (A) - P (B)

Substituting the variables for the corresponding data,

P (C) = 100% - 20% - 10%

P (C) = 70%

Hope this helps!

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

11 bakers makes 89 pretzels in 2.5 hours

11 bakers makes 35.6 pretzels in 1 hour

Use the properties you learned to show why (a+b)+c is equivalent to b+(a+c)
Vlad [161]
Using the Associative Property of addition, if you move the parentheses anywhere between a, b, and c, the answer will always be the same. Also, the Commutative Property of addition states that if you move the terms around, the answer is also still the same. So, (a+b)+c is the same as b+(a+c).
