An automobile manufacturing plant produced vehicles today: were sedans, were motorcycles, and were vans. Plant managers are going to select two of these vehicles for a thorough inspection. The first vehicle will be selected at random, and then the second vehicle will be selected at random from the remaining vehicles. What is the probability that the first vehicle selected is a sedan and the second vehicle is a van

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

assuming this is from a math graphing problem.

7 would be on the x-axis which is the horizontal line on the graph

84 would be on the y-axis which is the vertical line on the graph
