Step-by-step explanation:
the probability is always the number of desired cases over the number of all possible cases.
in our situation we have 15 cards.
that is the total possible cases when a random card is chosen.
how many desired cases do we have ?
a number NOT a multiple of 5.
how many are there ?
it is easier to say how many numbers there are being a multiple of 5 : 5, 10, 15
so, 3 numbers out of the 15 are multiple of 5.
that means
15 - 3 = 12 numbers of the 15 are NOT multiples of 5.
so, the probability to draw a card that is not a multiple of 5 is
12/15 = 4/5 = 0.8
the information about event B and even numbers is irrelevant for the question.

Answer:
No, PQRST is not a scale copy of ABCDE because we the sides are not increased proportionally.
Step-by-step explanation:
A polygon can be said to be a scaled copy of another polygon, if the the same scale factor is used in scaling every segment of the preimage or original image to get the length of the corresponding segments of the scale copy or image. In order words, all segments must be scaled proportionally.
Polygon PQRST, which is the new image, has different scale factors used in scaling the various segments of the preimage. In simple terms, the sides of PQRST were not increased proportionally. Therefore, PQRST is not a scaled copy of ABCDE.
Answer:
12, 17, 24
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the first 3 terms, substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the rule, that is
T₁ = 1² + 2(1) + 9 = 1 + 2 + 9 = 12
T₂ = 2² + 2(2) + 9 = 4 + 4 + 9 = 17
T₃ = 3² + 2(3) + 9 = 9 + 6 + 9 = 24
Answer:
x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) -2(-x-1)-(x+1)
2.) -2(-x-1) = 2x+2
3.) 2x+2-(x+1)
4.) -(x+1) = -x-1
5.) 2x+2-x-1 = x+1
ANSWER: x+1
Answer:
7. combination; 25C6 = 177100
8. combination; 15C5 = 3003
Step-by-step explanation:
7. The order of the committee member selections is not important. (It would be if specific people filled specific positions on the committee.) Hence, the number is a number of combinations of 25 people taken 6 at a time.
__
8. The order of players is not important, as it might be if specific choices filled specific positions on the team. (The problem statement gives no indication that is the case. It is only by our knowledge of basketball teams that we entertain the possibility that order might be important.) Hence, the number is a number of combinations of 15 people taken 5 at a time.
