I need some help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
vampirchik [111]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dealing with theoretical probability. This means that our probability of said outcome is

\frac{x}{y}

where x is the outcome we want, and y is the total number of outcomes possible.

28. There is 3 triangles out of 6 polygons so the probability is 1/2.

29.There is 1 Pentagon so the probability is 1/6.

30. This is a complement to question 28. A complement is the inverse of the problem. A complement and its original add to 1 so the probability of both getting a triangle is 1/2.

31. There is 4 non quadraletrial so the probability is 2/3.

32. There is 3 figures that has more sides than three so 1/2 is the probability.

33.There is only multi right angles figures so 1/2 is the probability.

34. There is 30 days in April so the probability it's the 29th is

\frac{1}{30}

35. There is 31 days in July and 15 days after the 16th. So the probability

is

\frac{15}{31}
