Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the length of segment HJ if H lies at (-1,7) and J lies at (8,-5), we will use the formula for calculating the distance between two points as shown;

D = √(x₂-x₁)²+(y₂-y₁)²

From the coordinates x₁ = -1, y₁ = 7, x₂ = 8, y₂ = -5

HJ = √(8-(-1))²+(-5-7)²

HJ = √(8+1)²+(-12)²

HJ = √81+144

HJ = √225

HJ = 15

<em>Hence the length of segment HJ is 15 units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 numbers between 0 and 8. 3 of them are less than 3 (0, 1, and 2), and 1 of them is 6.

The probability is therefore (3/9) (1/9) = 1/27.
