Answer: \frac{17}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total number of caps = 80

The number of green caps = 12

Then , the number of caps which are not green = 80-12=68

If 1 of the 80 caps is selected at random, what is the probability it will NOT be green is given by :-

\text{P(Not green)}=\frac{\text{Caps not green}}{\text{Total caps}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{P(Not green)}=\frac{68}{80}=\frac{17}{20}

Hence, the probability it will NOT be green =\frac{17}{20}

Probabilit is positive events / total number of events

In this case the positive events is to pick a cap that is not green and the total number is 80 (the number of caps).

The number of not green caps is 80 - 12 = 68.

Then the probability the cap selected will not be green is 68 / 80 = 17 / 20

babymother [125]

Answer:

b = 12.6

Step-by-step explanation:

a*2 + b*2 = c*2

6*2 + b*2 = 14*2

36 + b*2 = 196

Subtract 36 from both sides

36 + b*2 = 196

-36             -36

b*2 = 160

Find the square root of both

b = 12.64911064  or 12.6

Solve the equation for x. show each step of the solution. name the justifications for each step of the solutions.
sweet [91]
9/2{8-x}+36=102-5/2{3x+24}
you first use 9/2 to open brackets
9/2*8=36,
9/2*x=9/2x
36-9/2x=102-5/2{3x+24}
5/2*3x=15/2x+60
36-9/2x=-15/2x-60
36+60=15/2x+9/2x
96=12x you then divide and the answer obtained will be 8.
x=8

HELPPPP PLEASEEEEE ​
Alecsey [184]
I’m not rly sure what it means by flipping the card …. I’m assuming there’s more to this question but if it’s what I think it is the only way this equation will be true is by switching the + Symbol to - (subtraction) which would be 1-2= 3-4 since it would 1=1 making the equation true

Find the area of the shaded
mestny [16]

Answer:

40.5 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the shaded = area of the square - area of the triangle

Area of square = s²

s = 9 m

Area of square = 9² = 81 m²

Area of triangle = ½*b*h

b = 9 m

h = 9 m

Area of triangle = ½*9*9 = 40.5 m²

Area of the shaded = 81 - 40.5 = 40.5 m²
