A basket of fruit contains 4 bananas, 3 apples, and 5 oranges. You intend to draw a piece of fruit from the basket, keep it, and then draw a 2nd piece of fruit from the basket. What is the probability of selecting two oranges in a row from the basket if you are blindfolded?

5:12 or 4:11

Step-by-step explanation:

there are a total of 12 pieces of fruit including 5 oranges the first draw then on the second draw there are now 11 total pieces of fruit and 4 oranges

explanation:

previous steps have made pa≅ pb ≅ st ≅ su. setting the compass width to ab allows you to make tu the same length. then δstu ≅ δpab by the sss congruence postulate, and ∠p ≅ ∠s by the reason cpctc.

answer: -10

step-by-step explanation:

s(t) = 1 - 10t

s(x) = 1 - 10x

s(x + h) = 1 - 10(x + h)

            = 1 - 10x - 10h

s(x + h) - s(x) = 1 - 10x - 10h - (1 - 10x)

                      = 1 - 10x - 10h - 1 + 10x

                      = -10h

= -10
