Option B. 12/ 125  is the answer.

Explanation

Total umber of sour ball candies = 50

Number of lemon candies = 12

Hence the probability to get a lemon candy is = 12/50

Number of cherry sour balls = 20

So, the probability to get a cherry sour ball = 20/50

So, to get the joint probability for a random selection to either get a lemon or cherry candy, we will multiply both the probabilities.

\frac{12}{50}*\frac{20}{50}

= \frac{12}{125}

seraphim [82]

Answer:

915 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle :

Length = 32 inches

Width = 25 - (10+10) = 25 - 20 = 5 inches

Area of rectangle = Length * width

Area = 32 * 5 = 160 in²

Area of triangle :

Base = 25 inches

Height = (46 - 32) inches = 14 inches

Area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Area of triangle = 1/2 * 25 * 14 = 175 in²

Total area = (160 + 175)in² = 335 in²

Total area of cardboard :

50 inches * 25 inches = 1250 in²

Amount of cardboard not used :

(1250 - 335) in² = 915 in²
