C) 1/6
D) 1/5
Plz help!!

C) 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

We have 8 + 10 + 4 + 2 = 24 coins

Of those, 4 are nickels. So

The correct option is given by option C.

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
