egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

4 possible outcomes

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.

so

Let

x------> size of the event space

y-----> size of the sample space

so

$P=\frac{x}{y}$

In this problem

<em>The probability of choose a blue card is </em>

$x=7$

$y=7+4+6+8=25$

substitute

$P=\frac{7}{25}$

<em>The probability of choose a green card is </em>

$x=4$

$y=7+4+6+8=25$

substitute

$P=\frac{4}{25}$

<em>The probability of choose a red card is </em>

$x=6$

$y=7+4+6+8=25$

substitute

$P=\frac{6}{25}$

<em>The probability of choose a yellow card is </em>

$x=8$

$y=7+4+6+8=25$

substitute

$P=\frac{8}{25}$

The sum of the probabilities of the 4 possible outcomes is equal to

$\frac{7}{25}+\frac{4}{25}+\frac{6}{25}+\frac{8}{25}=\frac{25}{25}$ ----> represent the 100%

Line l1 passes through (-2, 5), and (-1, -10)

zalisa [80]

The equations of the lines l1 with points (-2, 5), and (-1, -10) and the line l2 with points (5, 15), and (3, 8), gives the coordinate of the intersection between the lines as the point; (-45/37, -250/37)

<h3>Which method can be used to describe the lines to find the intersection point?</h3>

The slope, m1, of line 1 l1 is found as follows;

m1 = (5 - (-10))/(-2- (-1)) = -15

The equation of line l1 in point and slope form is therefore;

y1 - 5 = -15•(x - (-2))

Which gives;

y1 = -15•(x - (-2)) + 5 = -15•x - 25

y1 = -15•x - 25

The slope, m2, of line 2 l2 is found as follows;

m2 = (15 - 8)/(5 - 3) = 3.5

Equation of line l2 is therefore;

y2 - 15 = 3.5•(x - 5)

Which gives;

y2 = 3.5•(x - 5) + 15 = 3.5•x - 2.5

y2 = 3.5•x - 2.5

At the intersection point, we have;

y1 = y2

Therefore;

-15•x - 25 = 3.5•x - 2.5

18.5•x = -22.5

x = -22.5/18.5 = -45/37

y2 = 3.5•x - 2.5

At the intersection point, we have;

y = y2 = 3.5×(-22.5/18.5) - 2.5 = -250/37

y = -250/37

The coordinates of the intersection between the lines is therefore;

(-45/37, -250/37)
