You and your 8 friends decide to draw straws for a prize. There are 8 long straws and 1 short straw. Describe how the theoretical probability of drawing the short straw changes as each friend picks a straw.

if you have 9 straws in total and only one of the straws are short. you are more likely to pick one of the eight long straws. which makes grabbing the one small straw a 1/9 chance and everytime one of the friends grab a straw it makes the possibility of grabbing the one small straw less, for example after one friend picks the possibility is gonna be 1/8 now and then another friend picks it would be 1/7. I hope this helps you because this is how I would solve it and I hope that's the way you need too as well

square root

step-by-step explanation:

when rotating a figure 180 degrees, imagine that you are able to take the figure and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise around a center point. to rotate a figure 180 degrees, you will need to apply the rule (x, y) → (-x, -y). start by using a coordinate grid with coordinates for each vertex of the figure. the center point of the coordinate grid is located at (0, 0), which is what you will rotate the figure around. write down the original coordinates of the shape you are going to rotate. then, apply the rule. for example, coordinate (1, 2) becomes (-1, -2). another example would be, coordinate (-4, -2) becoming (4, 2). after you change each original coordinate to the rotated coordinate, you will draw your new figure.
