There are 8 possible outcomes for a marble being drawn and numbered.
{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}
There are 4 possible outcomes for a card being selected from a standard deck.
{ <span>hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades}
So the number of outcomes in the sample space would be 8 x 4 = 32.
In the event "an even number is drawn", there are only 4 possible outcomes for a marble being drawn, {2,4,6,8}, whereas there are still 4 possible outcomes for a suit. So the number of outcomes in the event is 4 x 4 = 16.
</span><span>In the event "a number more than 2 is drawn and a red card is drawn", there are 6 possible outcomes for the marble being drawn, {3,4,5,6,7,8}, whereas there are only two possible suits for a card being selected as red, {heart, diamond}. So the number of outcomes in this event is 6 x 2 = 12.
In the event </span><span>"a number less than 3 is drawn or a club is not drawn", the number drawn could be 1 or 2 whereas a spade/heart/diamond could be selected. So the number of outcomes is 2 x 3 = 6.</span><span>

The ascending or descending order of a polynomial is
determined by the increasing or decreasing power of variable “x” respectively.
<span>The question is to find about the polynomial in
descending order, so in this case, the 3rd option is correct, i.e.
4x^2 – 3x + 9 or 4x^2 – 3x^1 +9x^0. The power of “x”
decreasing from 2 to 1 and then finally to 0.</span>
