Linear function, pls help

Answer:

*I just learned that in probability if a question has 'and' it means you multiply and if it has 'or' it means you add*

1a) 1/6

There are two numbers greater than four (5 and 6). There are 6 possible numbers you can get, so the fraction would be 2/6, or simplified would be 1/3. There are two options you can get when flipping a coin, so the chance of getting a head is 1/2. This is an 'and' problem so multiply 1/3•1/2 and you get 1/6.

1b) 1/4

There are 3 even numbers (2, 4, and 6), so the probability would be 3/6 or simplified to 1/2. The chance of landing on a tail is also 1/2, as there are two possible options. This is an 'and' problem so multiply 1/2•1/2 and you get 1/4.

2) 1/8

Write out your possible results: HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT.

3a) 1/8

There are 4 shirt options to choose from. The chance of picking blue is 1/4. There are 2 pant options. The chance of picking black is 1/2. This is an 'and' problem, so multiply 1/4•1/2 and you get 1/8.

3b) 1/4

There are 4 shirt options to choose from. This is an 'or' problem because he can choose an orange shirt OR a red shirt. The probability of picking an orange shirt is 1/4 and the probability of picking a red shirt is 1/4. 'Or' means you use addition so add 1/4+1/4 and you get 2/4 or simplified is 1/2. There are 2 pant options to choose from, so the probability of choosing brown pants is 1/2. Now, this is an 'and' problem, so multiply 1/2•1/2 and you get 1/4.

<h3>Answer: 112.5 square units</h3>

Work Shown:

A = area of the triangle

A = base*height/2

A = 9*7/2 = 63/2 = 31.5 ... see note1 below

B = area of rectangle

B = base*height

B = 9*3 = 27

C = area of parallelogram

C = base*height .... see note2 below

C = 9*6 = 54

If you're confused where I got the 6 from, check out the attached image below.

D = total area of the composite figure

D = A+B+C

D = 31.5 + 27 + 54

D = 112.5

-------------------------

note1: The vertical component of the triangle is 9 units because this is part of the rectangle. The rectangle has opposite sides that are the same length. The parallelogram's vertical sides are 9 units long as shown by the single tickmark.

note2: a rectangle is essentially a special case of a parallelogram. In other words, a rectangle is a parallelogram with 4 right angles. So this is why the formula "area = base*height" shows up identical for both rectangles and parallelograms. Keep in mind that the height is always perpendicular to the base. You will not use the segments marked with double tickmarks.
