Asock drawer contains winter socks and summer socks. both varieties come in two colors: white and black. there is a pair of each combination. if a sock is selected randomly, what is the probability it will be a black sock or a summer sock? the answer is not b a. 0.25 b. 0.5 c. 0.625 d. 0.75

you would use (d.) the law of cosines or a^2 = b^2 + c^2 – 2bc(cos a)

, b^2 = a^2 + c^2 – 2ac(cos b), or c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab(cos c). you wouldn't use b. the law of sines as it is mostly effective when 1side and 2angles are given. a and c aren't the answer for they are the improper versions of the law of cosines. hope this is .

answer:

step-by-step explanation:

here, the total dishes = 10

dishes having meat = 3 ( chicken, meatloaf and hamburger )

thus, the probability of having meat on the chosen dishes = number of dishes having meat / total dishes

=

therefore, the probability of not having meat = 1- the probability of having meat on the chosen dishes

=

=

=

⇒ option b is correct.
