The probability that the card is not yellow is \frac{5}{9}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>The probability of an event is given as:</u></em>

Probability = \frac{ \text{ number of favorable outcomes }}{ \text{ total number of possible outcomes }}

From given,

A box is filled with 8 blue cards, 8 yellow cards, and 2 green cards

Total number of possible outcomes = 8 + 8 + 2 = 18

Favorable outcome = card is not yellow

Favorable outcome = card is blue or green = 8 + 2 = 10

Therefore,

Probability = \frac{10}{18}\\\\Probability = \frac{5}{9}

Thus the probability that the card is not yellow is 5/9

The probability that the chosen card is not yellow  =   \frac{5}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given,

Number of blue cards in the box = 8

Number of yellow cards in the box = 8

Number of green cards in the box = 2

Hence total number of cards =  18

We need to find the probability that the chosen card is not yellow.

Step 2 :

Probability that the selected card is yellow = \frac{8}{18} = \frac{4}{9}  [since the favorable outcome = 8 and total outcome = 18]

Hence the probability of chosen card not being yellow  = 1 -  \frac{4}{9} =  \frac{5}{9}

Step 3 :

Answer :

The probability of chosen card not being yellow  =   \frac{5}{9}

Can anyone help me with this question please

Answer:

  7.  ∠CBD = 100°

  8.  ∠CBD = ∠BCE = 100°; ∠CED = ∠BDE = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

7. We presume the angles at A are congruent, so that each is 180°/9 = 20°.

Then the congruent base angles of isosceles triangle ABC will be ...

  ∠B = ∠C = (180° -20°)/2 = 80°

The angle of interest, ∠CBD is the supplement of ∠ABC, so is ...

  ∠CBD = 180° -80°

  ∠CBD = 100°

__

8. In the isosceles trapezoid, base angles are congruent, and angles on the same end are supplementary:

  ∠CBD = ∠BCE = 100°

  ∠CED = ∠BDE = 80°

Factor completely 2x5 + 10x4 - 22x3.
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:  2x³(x² + 5x - 11)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

2x⁵ + 10x⁴ - 22x³

Factor out the GCF (2x³)

2x³(x² + 5x - 11)

Since there are no values whose product is -11 and sum is +5, this cannot be factored further.
