PLEASE HELP, I WILL MARK YOU THE BRAINIEST 1)Each letter of the word “MATHEMATICS” is written on a separate slip of paper and placed in a hat. A letter is chosen at random from the hat. a. What is the probability of choosing “M” on your first try? 2) Suppose you choose an “M” on your first try. You keep the slip of paper (do not replace it in the hat) and go for another letter. What is the probability of getting another “M”?

Respuesta :

Answer:

For 1: 2/11

For 2: 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1: There are two M's in MATHEMATICS and 11 total letters, therefore the probabilitly is 2/11

For 2: Since you already got rid of one letter there are only 10 letters left. There is also only one M left, therefore the answer is 1/10

Answer:

1) 2/11

2)1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) MATHEMATICS

Number of times letters in the word Mathematics are written.

M=2

A=2

T=2

E=1

I=1

C=1

S=1

Probability= Successful outcome÷ Possible outcome

Succesful outcome=2

Possible outcome=11

2÷10=2/11

Probability of M is 2/11

2) ATHEMATICS

M=1

Succesful outcome =1

Possible outcome= 10

1÷10=1/10

Probability of getting another M is 1/10

Hope it helps <3
