4. If you spin the spinner twice, what is the probability that the spinner will land on 5 on the first spin and 2 on the second spin? 1/16
3/16
1/8
1/4

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in comment:

5,4,3,2 = Spinner

Thus, there are 4 possible answer

Given:

If you spin the spinner twice, what is the probability that the spinner will land on 5 on the first spin and 2 on the second spin?

1/16

3/16

1/8

1/4

Solve:

Knowing that there only One 5 and One 2 on the spinner.

Thus, in fraction form - 1/4 and 1/4

Probability land on 5 = 1/4

Probability land on 2 = 1/4

Because there are 4 possible solution and one of each is 5,4,3,2

Now, multiply then together:

1/4 × 1/4 = {1 ×1 = 1 and 4 × 4 = 16}

Put Together:

1/16

Hence, the answer is " The Probability that the spinner will land on 5 on the first spin and 2 on the second spin is 1/16

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

so, per your additional information the "spinner" has 4 possible results : 5, 4, 3 ,2

I guess, they are like the six numbers on a die equally probable.

that means the probabilty to get one of the 4 possible answers is 1/4 (desired outcomes over all possible outcomes).

now, to make the experiment twice and link the results as one desired outcome (like a 5 and a 2, or two 4s, or ...), we can multiply the probabilities as combined events without overlapping.

why ?

similar to a die with 6 possible results, we have here for every one of the 4 possible results of the first spin, we have 4 possible results of the second spin.

so, the probability of one particular set of 2 results is

1/4 × 1/4 = 1/16

in other words, it is 1/4 to get 5 on the second spin, and 1/4 to get 2 on the second spin. because we want both to happen as one desired result, both events have to happen as combination (and not as "or"). hence the multiplication.

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.
