The answer is to multiply
Your going to want to first distribute the negative out to the second equation
65x+50y-16x+21y
49x+71y
X²+y² =(Radius)²
x²+y² =10². So the radius is 10
Assume that each material in each category has an equal chance of being selected.
Categories:
(a) Type of wood used to make the cabinet: birch, maple, cherry.
Each type of wood has a probability of 1/3 to be selected.
(b) Type of finish: transparent, semi-transparent.
Each type of finish has a probability of 1/2 to be selected.
(c) Knob: bronze, steel, wood.
Each material has 1/3 probability to be selected.
Each event (selecting material for the cabinet, for the finish, and for the knob) is an independent event.
Therefore
Probablity(birch wood AND bronze knob) = (1/3)*(1/3) = 1/9
Probability(wood knob) = 1/3
Probability(transparent stain) = 1/2
Probability(cheryy wood AND semi-transparent stain) = (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6
From my research the answer for this question is 5
