If there is a 50% chance that something will happen, it is equally likely that it will happen.

23) There is an 80% chance of snow tomorrow. Likely or certain.

Convince Me!

Why can you use an equation when solving for x in

the diagram?

You can use the eqution because they are equal to each other. When they are equal to each other, you can find x by using the equation to simplify and get x alone.
