A box contains 5 plain pencils and 5 pens. A second box contains 3 colored pencils and 5 crayons. One item from each box is chosen at random. What is the probability that a pen from the first box and a crayon from the second box are selected? Write your answer as a fraction in the simplest form.

3/12 = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the probability of choosing a pen from the first box? It is 5/8.

What is the probability of selecting a crayon from the second box? It is 3/12 = 1/4.

The probability of picking a pen from the first box and a crayon from the second box is 5/8 x 1/4 = 5/32.

2 x^2 -3x+p

sum of roots = 3/2

let other root be x

3+ x = 3/2

x= 3/2 - 3 = -3/2

product of roots = p/2

3× -3/2 = p/2

-9 = p
