Answer:

\dfrac{9}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the bag contains black and red marbles.

Number of black marbles in the bag = 2

Number of red marbles in the bag = 3

Total number of marbles in the bag = Number of black marbles + Number of red marbles = 2 + 3 = 5

Let us have a look at the formula for probability of an event E, which can be observed as:

P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}

P(\text{First red marble}) = \dfrac{\text{Number of red marbles}}{\text{Total number of marbles}} = \dfrac{3}{5 }

Now, the marble chosen at first is replaced.

Therefore, the count remains the same.

P(\text{Second red marble}) = \dfrac{\text{Number of red marbles}}{\text{Total number of marbles}} = \dfrac{3}{5}

Now, the <em>required probability</em> can be found as:

P(\text{First red marble})\times P(\text{Second red marble}) = \dfrac{3}{5}\times \dfrac{3}{5} = \bold{\dfrac{9}{25} }

11) The measure of each interior angle of a regular 11-sided polygon is
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Always , sum of exterior angle of any polygon  = 360

sum of exterior angle of 11- sided polygon  = 360

Measurement of  an exterior angle of 11-sided polygon  = 360/11

                                                 = 32.73

Measurement of  an interior angle of 11-sided polygon = 180 - 32 8/11

= 180 - 32.73= 147.27
