Answer:

\frac{1}{165}

Explanation:

The probability that you choose letter M the first time is 1/11.

Then, given 1, the probability that you choose letter I the second time is 4/10

The probability that you choose letter S the third time is 4/9

The probability that you choose letter S the fourth time is 3/8.

So, the probability that you get the word MISS is :

\frac{1}{11}*\frac{4}{10}*\frac{4}{9}*\frac{3}{8} = \frac{1}{165}

densk [106]

<u>Answer</u>:

A: Years ago, my brother worked at the Ford Plant in St. Paul.

This is the right way to capitalize the words in the given sentence "years ago, my brother worked at the ford plant in st. paul."

In the correct option A, first letter of the word 'Y' in 'years' should be capital. Then, 'F' of Ford plant will be capital, as it is a name. “St. Paul” is also a name and hence 'S' and 'P' respectively of this word should be capital. In other options, either of the given letters are not capital, so they are incorrect.
