Probability is the study of calculating the chances or likelihood of an event occurring out of the total number of events. This likelihood is always presented as part of a whole. It could be in fractions or percentages.
There are two techniques to apply to this problem. First, we use the repeated trial equation:
P = n!/r!(n-r)! * p^(n-r) * q^r
This is used to determine the probability that an event will occur exactly 'r' times out of 'n' trials. p is the probability of success, while q is the probability of failure. Together, they add up to 1. In this case, each kind of plant has 1/3 probability. So, p=1/3 and q=2/3.
Second thing to note when dealing with probability problems are 'hint words'. When you are asked to find the probability of event A 'AND' event B happening, then you multiply their probabilities. However, when you are asked to find the probability of event A 'OR' event B happening, then you add their probabilities. Hence, the solution to this problem is:
P = 6!/4!(6-4)! * (1/3)^6-4 * (2/3)^4 + 6!/5!(6-5)! * (1/3)^6-5 * (2/3)^5
P = 0.596 or 59.6%

Answer:
12/5=x and -3=n
Step-by-step explanation:
11) x-10-3x-4=7x-5
2x-14=7x-2
-12=5x
12/5=x
12)-6n-20=-2n+4-12n
-6n-20= -14n +4
-24=8n
-3=n
She used the area of a square formula instead of area of a rectangle. she should have done A =(1/2)(19)(18) and gotten 171 in^2
