Answer:

The probability that the pebble will NOT land on color blue is 0.67.

Step-by-step explanation:

We attribute the box area as the probability of the events.

So the probability of landing in the Red Area is 1/6, the probability of landing in the Blue Area is 1/3 and the probability of landing in the Yellow Area is 1/2.

P(Red)=\frac{1}{6}

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

P(Blue)=\frac{1}{3}

The probability of landing in NOT Blue area is given by:

P(Not Blue)=1-P(Blue)=1-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{3} =0.67

Rearrange the equation 5x-3y+9=0 from standard form to slope/y-intercept form.
lions [1.4K]
Y=Mx+B -> slope intercept form

The answer would be -3y=-5x-9
Divide the -3 on both sides and you get
y=5/3x+3
