Ronald spins a spinner that has 10 sections numbered from 1 to 10. what is the probability that the spinner lands on a prime number?

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime numbers less than 10 are 2, 3, 5, and 7.  Assuming the sections are sized equally, then four out of ten sections is 40%.

.24

step-by-step explanation:

the probability is   .24

the first player had the highest probability of getting a silver marble

the game could be made fair by adding back the marble that was drawn after each draw

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
