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

The circumference of a circle can be found using the formula C = 2r. Which is an equivalent equation solved for r? r = C r = C(2
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

r equals StartFraction C Over 2 pi EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

C=2\pi r

where

r is the radius of the circle

Solve for r

That means -----> isolate the variable r

Divide by 2π both sides

\frac{C}{2\pi}=\frac{2\pi r}{2\pi}

Simplify right side

\frac{C}{2\pi}=r

Rewrite

r=\frac{C}{2\pi}

so

r equals StartFraction C Over 2 pi EndFraction
