Answer:

15.15% probability that Neil selects a bone and then a ball

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Initially, there are 3+4+5 = 12 treats. 4 of those are bones. So the probability of selecting a bone is 4/12 = 1/3.

Now suppose a bone has been selected. Now there are 11 treats, 5 of which are balls. So the probability of selecting a ball in this situation is 5/11.

What is the probability Neil selects a bone and then a ball?

p = \frac{1}{3}*\frac{5}{11} = \frac{5}{33} = 0.1515

15.15% probability that Neil selects a bone and then a ball

One angle of a parallelogram measures 45°. What are the measures of the other three angles
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: 135, 45, and 135 are the three other angles

==================================================

Explanation:

For a parallelogram, we'll have opposite angles with the same measure. So if one angle is 45 degrees, then the opposite angle is also 45 degrees. The other two angles are 180-45 = 135 degrees each. Adjacent angles in a parallelogram add to 180 degrees.

Favorable outcome is 2

The probability to choose solid white tie is \frac{1}{5}

The probability that both ties he chooses are solid white is

\frac{1}{5} × \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1}{25}
