Look at it this way:
When you flip a coin, the probability of it landing with EITHER side showing
is 100%.
This leads us to the rule ...
The sum of the probabilities of
all possible outcomes is 100%.
For a coin: (probability of heads) plus (probability of tails) = 100%.
That just says: We're 100% sure that the coin will land with either
heads or tails up.
An "honest" coin gets heads 50% of the time and tails the other 50%.
But if the coin is all bent and squashed and has a feather stuck to
one side and a wad of gum on the other side so that it comes up
heads 70% of the time, then the coin isn't 'honest'. But it still has to
land EITHER heads OR tails, so the sum of the probabilities is still 100%.
So the probability of heads is 30%.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>For old circular garden:</u>
take the radius as r.
then use the formula to find area of circle: πr² ......this is old garden area.
<u>For new enlarged garden:</u>
the radius is twice the old radius so, radius = 2 * r = 2r ......enlarged radius
now find area for this new garden: π(2r)² → 4πr²
In common fractions: (old garden)/(new garden)
: ( πr² ) / ( 4πr² )
: 1/4
Answer:
xº=71º
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the triangle BDH
Once the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180º:
40º+31º+yº=180º
71º+yº=180º
yº=109º
Once yº and xº are supplementary angles (add up to 180º):
yº+xº=180º
109º+xº=180º
xº=71º
