A = event that you select a black sweater
P(A) = 2/5 since there are 2 black out of 2+3 = 5 total

After you make a selection, we have the event
B = event that you select another black sweater assuming event A has happened already

P(B) = 1/4 because there's 1 black sweater left out of 5-1 = 4 left over

Multiply the probabilities
P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B)
P(A and B) = (2/5)*(1/4)
P(A and B) = 2/20
P(A and B) = 1/10

The answer as a fraction is 1/10
In decimal form, it is 0.1
As a percent, the answer is 10%

Find the value of x. NO LINKS AT ALL!! ​

Answer:

x= -7

The whole thing is just an awkward mirror but the lower triangle has an angle that is 1 degree smaller so the whole lower section is going to be bigger or smaller and the angle that mirrors the 80 degree angle is now 79 degrees which makes the other angle on that line 1 degree bigger which would be 101 so you put it in the expession to make it the equation -12x+17=101 and you solve for x which you would then get -7.
