If an event has a probability P of happening, then there is a probability of (1-P) of the event not happening.
In this case the probability of the event is p=20/69.
Then, the probability of the event not happening is:

Answer: the probability of the event not happening is 49/69.
Start with

Add 2x to both sides:

Subtract 21 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 5. Since it is positive, we don't have to change the inequality sign:

So, the answer is 
Using the Pythagorean triples, one side is 3 units long, one side is 4 units long, and one side is 5 units long. To find the area of a right triangle, multiply length times width. Then divide total by two.
So,
(3•4)/2= 6 units
After scaling units, you should get 24 units.
You can solve this one by adding their rates, but you have to invert the numbers they give you to find the rate. Rate is measured in something per unit of time, and "per" indicates division. So the rates are: 1/3 of an hour (Sally) and 1/6 of an hour (Steve). So add the rates: 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2. (1/3 is 2/6, and 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6). Since their combined rate is 1/2 of a room in one hour, it takes them two hours to paint the room.
This answer makes sense: It takes Sally three hours by herself; with Steve's help, she's faster, but not THAT much faster, because he's pretty slow. You can often spot-check word problem answers like this by giving it a common sense once-over. If we came up with four hours, that would clearly be wrong: it should take her LONGER if she's getting help.
