Answer:
a) 2/5
b) 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 20 people total.
a is that the chosen child is a girl.
2 + 6 = 8, --> there are 8 girls --> simplify
8/20 = 4/10 = 2/5
b is the probability that the chosen child is a left-handed girl, --> there are 2 left-handed girls --> 2/20 --> simplify to 1/10
And thus, we have our answers.
It should be (2x-3)x(3x+2)

19/20 is the simplest form
