The probability of answering correctly if you make a random guess is:

P = 1/5 = 0.2

<h3>How to find the probability for a random guess?</h3>

If you make a random guess, then you have no idea of which could (or couldn't) be the correct answer. Thus, all the 5 options have the exact same probability of being the correct one.

From this, the probability of answering correctly the question is given by the quotient between the number of correct answers (we assume is only one) and the total number of options (5).

So the probability is:

P = 1/5 = 0.2

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 3) and (8, 6)
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is \frac{1}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of two points, divide the difference between the y values by the difference between x values, you can remember this by the mnenomic "rise over run". In this case, the difference between y and x values would be 6 - 3 = 3 and 8 - 2 = 6 respectively. This means the slope between the two points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is \frac{3}{6} or \frac{1}{2}.

Lines l, m, and n are parallel.<br><br> What is the value of x?<br><br><br> °
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Since you know the given angle is 46deg. You also know that a straight line is equal to 180deg. So it's a supplementary angle, therefore you subtract 46 from 180 and get 134. And since the l, m, and n are parallel, they have congruent angles. So x = 134deg.
