(Probability of it Happening) + (Probability of it not Happening) = 1 (or 100%)

this makes since because it is for sure either going to happen or not happen.
x = probability not happening
3/8 + x = 1
x = 1- 3/8
x = 5/8 (or 62.5%)

Answer:

5/8 or 62.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

It is simple. Use 8/8 and subtract it by the probability of an event happening and you will get 5/8

Answer:

HL = Hypotenuse & Leg of a right triangle are congruent to another right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove a triangle is congruent to another using HL, you must prove that the triangles have a corresponding 90 degree angles, corresponding congruent hypotenuse side lengths, and corresponding congruent hypotenuse legs.

The triangles here both have 90 degree angles a marked on the figure.

Two ways to Prove:

  • Reflexive property for the hypotenuse. Properties of a rectangle to prove equal legs.
  • Rotation about point M and translation

Picking a 7 from a standard deck of 52 cards. A standard deck includes 4 cards of each number from 2 to 10?
horsena [70]

Answer:

1/13

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you need the probability of choosing a 7 when pulling one card from a standard deck of playing cards.

There are four 7's in a deck of 52 cards.

Probability = (number of desired outcomes)/(number of possible outcomes)

The number of desired outcomes is 4 because there are 4 chances of pulling a 7 from a deck when choosing one card.

The total number of possible outcomes is 52 because there are 52 different cards to choose from when choosing one card.

So the probability is

P(7) = 4/52

P(7) = 1/13
