The value of x is 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

In a probability distribution, probability should be between 0  and 1. The probabilities add up to one.

Given probabilities are:

\frac{1}{10}, \frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{2}, x

The sum of these probabilities will be equal to 1.

So,

To find x,

\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{2}+x = 1\\\frac{1+2+5}{10}+x=1\\\frac{8}{10}+x=1\\x= 1- \frac{8}{10}\\x = 1- \frac{4}{5}\\x= \frac{5-4}{5}\\x=\frac{1}{5}

The value of x is 1/5

You are inscribing a regular hexagon in a circle. You need to know the angle measure between the vertices. You divide 360° by wh
Svet_ta [14]

To know the angle measure between the vertices, you divide 360° by 3. Option C

<h3>Interior angles of a hexagon</h3>

Formula for interior angles of polygon is given as;

= ( n -2 ) × 180 degrees

Hexagon has 6 sides, n = 6

= ( 6 - 2 ) × 180° = 4 × 180° = 720°

Each interior angle = 720/ 6 = 120

To get 120 from 360

= \frac{360}{120}

= 3

Thus, to know the angle measure between the vertices, you divide 360° by 3. Option C
