Multiply the two desired probabilities to find the answer.

5/12 is the probability for the plain pencil since there are 5 pencils out of 12 total items.

1/2 is the probability for the colored pencil since there are 3 colored pencils out of 6 total items. 3/6 simplifies to 1/2.

5/12*1/2= 5/24

Final answer: 5/24

In the figure below, mZ1=(x +48) and m2 2=2xº.<br> Find the angle measures.
NARA [144]
Since m < 1 and m < 2 are complementary angles wherein the measure of their angles add up to 90°, we can establish the following equation:

m < 1 + m < 2 = 90°
x° + 48° + 2x° = 90°

Combine like terms:
48° + 3x° = 90°

Subtract 48° from both sides:

48° - 48° + 3x° = 90° - 48°

3x = 42°

Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x:

3x/3 = 42/3

x = 14°

Plug in the value of x into the equation to fins m< 1 and m < 2:

m < 1 + m < 2 = 90°
(14° + 48°) + 2(14)° = 90°
62° + 28° = 90°

90° = 90° (True statement)

Therefore:

m < 1 = 62°
m < 2 = 28°
