The probability that 2 randomly selected points from Q, R,S, T and W are noncollinear is

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

Since we are to find the probability that 2 randomly selected points from Q,R,S,T and W are non-collinear

Non collinear points are points that doesn't lie on the same straight line. From the diagram given, the two point that are non colliear are (QR, QS, QT and QW making 4 2random non collinear points. Hence out expected number of outcome is 4.

For the total possible outcome, we are to find the number of ways we can randomly select two points from the 5 points given and this can be done using the combination rule.

This can therefore be done in 5C2 number of ways.

5C2 = 5!/(5-2)!2!

5C2 = 5!/3!2!

5C2 = 5*4*3*2*1/3*2*2

5C2 = 5*2

5C2 = 10 different ways

Hence the total possible outcome is 10

Therefore, the probability that 2 randomly selected points from Q,R,S,T and W are noncollinear will be 4/10 = 2/5

because its not ur topic and its not for is for homework not that.
