Answer:
This is the same as writing (n-m)/n
Don't forget about the parenthesis if you go with the second option.
==================================================
Explanation:
The probability that she wins is m/n, where m,n are placeholders for positive whole numbers.
For instance, m = 2 and n = 5 leads to m/n = 2/5. This would mean that out of n = 5 chances, she wins m = 2 times.
The probability of her not winning is 1 - (m/n). We subtract the probability of winning from 1 to get the probability of losing.
We could leave the answer like this, but your teacher says that the answer must be "in the form of a combined single fraction".
Doing a bit of algebra would have these steps
and now the expression is one single fraction.
For this case we must follow the steps below:
step 1:
We place each of the given points on a coordinate axis
Step 2:
We join the AC points (represented by the orange line)
We join the BD points (represented by the blue line)
It is observed that the resulting figure after placing the 4 points on a coordinate axis, turns out to be a rhombus.
In addition, the blue and orange lines turn out to be perpendicular, that is, they have an angle of 90 degrees between them. This can be verified by finding the slopes of each of the two straight lines (blue and orange), which must be opposite reciprocal, that is, they comply:
In this case, the slope of the orange line is and that of the blue line is
Then , it is verified that they are perpendicular.
Thus, the conclusion is that ABCD is a rhombus and AC is perpendicular to BD.
