U would solve this by subbing in ur answer choices to see which ones make the equation true.
ur answer is : (-1,-8) , (0,-3), (3,12)
C. add 3 to 15 because the sequence is +3 every time
This is an example of "classical probability". Whenever the probability of all events is the same, then the probability is calculated by dividing the number of "favorable events" of total events.
For this problem, the total number of events is the total number of balls, it is 40. The number of favorable events it the number of pink balls, it is 6.
So, the answer is 6/40, which can be written as 3/20.
So you would multiply if it has the word of in the problem right?
