<h3>Answer:</h3>

2/15

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

There are 8C2 = 28 ways to choose 2 dimes from the 8 dimes in Annie's purse. There are 21C2 = 210 ways to choose 2 coins from the 21 coins in Annie's purse.

Of the 210 ways to choose 2 coins, 28 of the choices will result in 2 dimes being chosen. The probability of choosing 2 dimes is 28/210 = 2/15.

_____

<em>Comment on nCk</em>

The number of ways to choose k objects from n, when order does not matter, is ...

... n!/(k!(n -k)!)

For the computations above, we have ...

... 8C2 = 8·7/(2·1) = 28

... 21C2 = 21·20/(2·1) = 210

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to solve the inequality are you get |y|>-1

Now you can plot the inequality by placing an open dot on -1 since the inequality is greater than.

Since the inequality is greater than, you also have to shade when all y values are greater than -1 so you would shade to the right.
