Please help. A spinner had 7 identical sections. Two sections are blue, 1 us red, and 4 of the sections are green. Suppose the p

robabilty of an event happening is 2/7 (fraction). What does each number in the ratio represent? What outcome matches this probability?

Note that 7 represents each of the different 7 regions in the spinner. 

1 would represent the red region, as there is one red region.

4 would represent the 4 green regions. Thus, 2 represents the 2 blue regions.



Note that as the spinner spins, no matter which region is colored with which color, the probability of hitting a blue region is \displaystyle{  \frac{2}{7}, as out of 7 regions we can hit, 2 are blue.

(Naturally enough, the greater the number of regions of a certain color, the greater the probability of hitting a region of that color.)


7 is the number of the elements in the sample space.

2 is the number of the elements in the event: "hitting blue".

This probability, as mentioned earlier, is matched by the outcome "hitting blue."

I need the answer and the work! <br> you have to find n.

Tell you what I'll do:  I'll show you the work, for two of them.
Then, knowing how to do it, you'll find the answers.
Deal ?

#1). n + (-13) = -12

Remove the parentheses
on the left side:                     n - 13 = -12

Add  13  to each side:           n        =    1

================================

#3).                        -15 + n  =  3

Add  15  to each side:     n  =  18


OK.  Look those over, understand how they're done, then TAKE IT !
