Answer:1/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red balls: 5

Number of green balls: 6

Number of yellow balls: 9

Total number of balls= 5+6+9= 20

Let probability of red balls = Pr(red balls)

PR(red balls)= 5/20

Hence probability of picking first ball as red = 5/20

Probability of picking second ball without replacing the first ball:

This implies that by picking second ball to be red, the number of red ball would decrease by 1. Also the total number of balls would also decrease by 1 because it isn't replaced.

PR(2nd ball) = 4/19

Pr(1st ball red and 2nd ball red)= 5/20 * 4/19

=(5*4)/(20×19)

20/(20/19)

= 1/19

What is the translation from quadrilateral IJK to<br> quadrilateral I'J’K’
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The translation from triangle IJK to triangle I'J'K' is T_{(2, 6)} which is 2 units to the right and 6 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of triangle JKI are;

J has coordinates (1, - 1)

K has coordinates (1, - 4)

I has coordinates (-3, - 2)

While, the coordinates of translation triangle J'K'I' are;

J' has coordinates (3, 5)

K' has coordinates (3, 2)

I' has coordinates (-1, 4)

Which give the translation as follows

Translation in the y-coordinate (y values);

For J = 5 - (-1) = 6

For K = 2 - (-4) = 6

For I = 4 - (-2) = 6

Translation in the x-coordinate (x values);

For J = 3 - 1 = 2

Therefore, the translation from triangle IJK to triangle I'J'K' is T(2, 6) which is 2 units to the right and 6 units up

tester [92]

Answer:

I think it's the last one D

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the x can't repeat and 4 is the only number of x that hasn't been plotted yet. Tell me if it was right?
