Well you add them all together to get 24 and then add blue and red to get 12 so 12/24 which is 1/2 so you have a 50 ,50 chance

slope = m = \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{ f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{ x_2 - x_1}\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} average~rate\\ of~change \end{array}\\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ f(x)= 2(x-2)^2+1\qquad \begin{cases} x_1=-2\\ x_2=4 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(4)-f(-2)}{4-(-2)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{[2(4-2)^2+1]~~ - ~~[2(-2-2)^2+1]}{4+2}\implies \cfrac{[9]~~ - ~~[33]}{6}\implies \cfrac{-24}{6}\implies -4

Hi, having trouble understanding this question.. as well as solving it.
kramer

-- You have two angles.

-- They're complementary . . . they add up to 90 degrees.

-- One is 4 times as big as the other one.
___________________________________________

-- The smaller angle has 1 share of the 90 degrees.

-- The bigger angle has 4 shares of the 90 degrees.

-- (The smaller one is 1/4 the size of the bigger one.
   The bigger one is 4 times the size of the smaller one.)

-- When you add them together, you get 5 shares, totaling 90 degrees.

-- What's the size of each share ?  It's 90/5 = 18 degrees.

-- The smaller angle gets one share . . . 18 degrees.

-- The bigger angle gets 4 shares.   (4 x 18) = 72 degrees.
____________________________________

Check:

-- Is the small one 1/4 the size of the big one ?    18/72 = 1/4  Yes.

-- Are they complementary ?  Do they add up to 90 degrees ?

                                                                       18 + 72  =  90  Yes.

                                                                                 yay !
