Answer: Unlikely

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The probability of choosing a penny from the 1980s from the bag of pennies without looking=\frac{3}{40}=0.075

We know that the probability of any event lies between 0 and 1.

  • If probability of occurring event is 0 then the event is impossible.
  • If probability of occurring any event is 1 then the event certain.
  • If probability of occurring any event lies between 0.5 and 1 then the event is said to be likely.
  • If probability of occurring any event lies between 0 and 0.5 then the event is said to be unlikely.

Since, 0.075 lieas between 0 and 0.5, therefore the event is said to be unlikely.

In a bag of candy, Marsha found that there were 7 red, 8 blue, 5 yellow, and 9 greens pieces of candy. Marsha put all of the pie
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) find the total candies

7 + 8 + 5 + 9 = 29

2) a probability can be expressed with a fraction whose denominator is the total candies, while the numerator represents the candies that we want to find

- red = 7/29

- blue = 8/29

- yellow = 5/29

- green = 9/29

3) compound probability

(red + blue)/29 = 15/29

(yellow + green)/29 = 14/29

(blue + yellow + green)/29 = 22/29

Answer:

4√34

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown side be y

y^2 = 20^2 + 12^2

y^2 = 400 + 144

y^2 = 544

Take the square root of both side

y = √544

y = √(16x34)

y = √16 x √34

y = 4√34
