Samantha believes that the probability of her winning the gymnastics meet is 3/8. what is the probability of her losing the gymnastic meet

Hello there!

Ok, in this case, there are only two probabilities, one where Samantha wins, and one where Samantha losses.

In statistics, when we are loockin to a particullar event, all rhe probabilities should add to 1. In this case, the probability of samantha winning plus the probability of Samantha losing should be equal than one.

then:

3/8 + x = 1

x= 1 - 3/8 = 5/8

and this makes a lot of sense, if there are 3 of 8 scenarios where Samantha wins, then we have other 5 of 8 scenarios where Samantha doesn't win.

10x

step-by-step explanation:

the greatest common factor 30 and 20 is 10

5 is a common factor of 30 and 20 but 10 is also a factor and 10 is greater than 5 so 5 will definitely not be apart of our answer

now the most amount of x's you factor our is just 1 factor of 1

so 10x the gcf of the terms in the polynomial
