Answer:

a. 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

A spinner in an algebra problem is generally considered to have equal probabilities for equal areas. It is also generally considered to have the characteristic that the value produced by the next spin is independent of the value produced by the last spin.

With those assumptions in mind, the probability of getting a 3 is always 0.25. It is never anything else with this 4-section spinner.

Step-by-step explanation:

$A = lw \nl\frac{\dA}{\dt}$ = $\frac{\dA}{\text{d}l}\frac{\text{d}l}{\dt} + \frac{\dA}{\text{d}w}\frac{\text{d}w}{\dt}$ = $w\frac{\text{d}l}{\dt} + l\frac{\text{d}w}{\dt}$ $\nll = 20 \text{ cm}$ \;\; $\frac{\text{d}l}{\dt} = 8 \text{ cm/s}$ \;\;w = 10 \text{ cm}, \;\; $]\frac{\text{d}w}{\dt} = 3 \text{ cm/s}$ $\nl\frac{\dA}{\dt} =( 10 \text{ cm} )( 8 \text{ cm/s} ) + ( 20 \text{ cm} )( 3 \text{ cm/s} ) =140 \text{ cm}^2\!\text{/s}
