A spinner has 14 equal areas Numbered one through 14 if the spinner is spun one time what's the probability that the result is a multiple of 3 or a multiple of 2

0.643

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14}

Multiples of 2 : 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14

Multiples of 3 : 3, 6, 9, 12

P(multiples o

(Multiples of 2 n multiples of 3) = {2,3,4,6,8,9,10,12,14} = 9

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Hence,

P(multiple of 2 or 3) = 9 / 14 = 0.643

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.
