There is a rack of 15 billiard balls. Balls numbered 1 through 8 are solid-colored. Balsa numbered 9 through 15 contain stripes. If one ball is selected at random, determine the odds for it being striped.

If one ball is selected at random, the odds for it being striped are 7 out of 15, or 7/15.

What do we know?

We know that there are 15 billiard balls.

We also know that balls numbered 1 through 8 are solid-colored, so we have 8 solid-colored balls.

And the other 7 balls are striped.

Now we want to find the probability for a randomly selected ball to be a striped ball.

Because all the balls have the same probability of being randomly selected, the probability of randomly selecting a striped ball is equal to the quotient between the number of striped balls (7) and the total number of balls (15).

Then we have:

P = 7/15 = 0.467

That quotient is also what is called the "odds"

So if one ball is selected at random, the odds for it being striped are 7 out of 15, or 7/15.

60

step-by-step explanation:

every triangle measures a total of 120 degrees. you have to find angle c. we know that isosceles triangles angles are equal. 60 degrees plus 60 degrees gives you 120.
