The sample space is orange, purple, and white. if p(orange )=2/5 and p(purple) = 3/10 what is p=(white)

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability refers to chance of occurrence of an event .

Formula of probability :

Probability = No. of favourable outcomes / Total no. of outcomes

Let be the events and S denotes the sample space .

Properties of Probability :

1 .

2.

Given :

P(Orange) = 2/5

P(purple) = 3/10

We know that  P(Orange ) + P(purple)  + P(white) = 1

So,

P(white) = 1

On transposing 2/5 and 3/10 on RHS , we get

P(white)  =

b.) 160 miles on a 5 gallons car

step-by-step explanation:

240/10=24 miles/gallon

160/5=32 miles/gallon

30/1=30 miles/gallon

168/6= 28 miles/gallon

32 miles/gallon is the most amount, so this is the best.

add 5 subtract 1
