The probability would be 6/16 or 37.5% because there are 16 coins in total and 6 of them are worth more than 5 cents. :)
B is the midpoint which means both sides are equal to each other:
5x = 3x + 4
Subtract 3x from both sides
2x = 4
Divide both sides by 2
X = 2
2x - 3 < 11 or 8x -10 < 82: <span>X < 23/2
<span>
Part 1</span>
</span>2x-3<11
Add 3 both sides
2x-3+3<11+3
Refine
2x<14
Divide by 2 on both sides
2x / 2 / 14 / 2
Refine
x < 7
<span>
Part 2</span>
8x-10<82
Add 10 to both sides
8x-10+10<82+10
Refine
8x<92
Divide by 8
8x / 8 / 92 / 8
Refine
x < 23 / 2
A event would be five I think and the event of b would be nine
