The letters in VIRGINIA are each written on a separate card. Mark picks one card at random, keeps it, and then picks a second card. What is the probability that he picks an "I" and then picks a consonant? 3/14

3/16

1/4

2/7

okay I would say 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

the originally eight letters, and then you take one out so there's seven and then your chances of getting the I are two so that's 2/7. then there's only one consonant the R so 1/4.

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2
