So, is P the probability of it landing on 0?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
If so, 0 is not on a standard die.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think so but I am not sure
hartnn (hartnn):
do you find a 0 on a standard dice?

number cube*
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What are your chances of rolling 0 if it isn't on there?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh yay it is d 0

hartnn can you help me with a few more plz
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sure
OpenStudy (anonymous):
From a barrel of colored marbles, you randomly select 7 blue, 5 yellow, 8 red, 4 green, and 6 purple marbles.
3. Find the experimental probability of randomly selecting a marble that is not yellow. Write your answer in simplest form
hartnn (hartnn):
sure,
Can you ask new question in a new post?
So that others can help you too if they want :)
hartnn (hartnn):
lets take that one in this post only :)

ok
hartnn (hartnn):
how many total marbles are there?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
30
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How many aren't yellow?
hartnn (hartnn):
out of that 30, how many are yellow and how many are not?

5 are yellow and 25 are not yellow
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So, the probability of picking a marble that isn't yellow is __ out of 30
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5/30
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, that's the chance of picking a yellow.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5 yellows out of 30

hartnn (hartnn):
Probability = favorable number of events/ total number of events
For probability of not selecting a yellow,
favourable event is picking some other marble =25
so that will be your numerator
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Read the question closely, it tells you that they need to know how many are NOT yellow.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A. 1/30
B. 5/6
C. 2/15
D. 1/6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
we have to wright the answer in simplest form
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ah, then you need to divide the numerator and denominator until they become the smallest and simplest.

hartnn (hartnn):
first get the probability
numerator = 25, denominator = total = 30
25/30
now try to reduce this.
25 and 30 can be divided by which smallest natural number?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5
hartnn (hartnn):
then divide both of them by 5 and tell me what you get?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5/6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
There you go!
