Answer:

\frac{281}{4} inches is the remaining piece of board.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the board ,T= 9 feet 9 (1/2) inches

1 foot = 12 inches

9 feet 9 (1/2) inches = 9\times 12 +\frac{19}{2} inches=\frac{163}{2} inches

Length of the board =T=\frac{163}{2}inches

Length of the board cut by Jeff = l = 11\frac{1}{4} inches=\frac{45}{4} inches

Length of the remaining piece of board: T - l

=\frac{163}{2}inches-\frac{45}{4} inches=\frac{281}{4} inches

Elena randomly chooses a number from 1 to 10. What is the probability she chooses a number greater than 5?
zepelin [54]

ANSWER

P(E)=\frac{1}{2}

EXPLANATION

From the given information, Elena chooses a number from 1 to 10.

The sample space is

S={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}

n(S)=10

The numbers greater than 5 are:

E={6,7,8,9,10}

n(E)=5

The probability that, she chooses a number greater than 5 is:

P(E) =  \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}

Substitute the values,

P(E) =  \frac{5}{10}

P(E) =  \frac{1}{2}
