Looking at the set, we are given 18 elements. 17 is prime; it has only two factors: 1 and 17, since 1•17=17. So, the question is really asking what is the probability the numbers 1 or 17 is chosen. As mentioned earlier, 17 is prime, so there are two possible choices: 1 and 17.
P (probability) = possible outcomes / total outcomes
It is important to note that these events are “or” events, meaning that the probability can only be determined by choosing a 1 or a 17; you can’t randomly chose a 1 and 17 at the same time. So, the formula is:
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)
All this is saying is that given two possible outcomes, the probability occurs independent of each event; they don’t occur at the same time.
P(1 or 17) = P(1)/18 + P(1)/18
P(1 or 17) = 2/18
Since 17 is prime, it’s two and only factors are 1 and 17. The probability of randomly choosing a 1 or 17 is 2/18, meaning that there are 2 elements in the set out of a possible 18 elements that can be randomly chosen.
2/18 simplifies to 1/9
So, your answer is 1/9
Answer:
Relation #2 and #4
Answer:
f ( - 2 ) = - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
f ( - 2 ) = - 3 ( -2 )^2
then you do the exponent first so
- 3 ( 4 )
now you multpily the - 3 and 4
you get - 12
Answer:
The answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
on the left picture 5 * 5 = 25 sq ft
on the right picture, 5 * 2 - 10 sq ft
So the answer is B
