Consider a bowl containing 36 different slips of paper. Ten of the slips of paper each contain one of the set of digits 0 through 9 and 26 slips each contain one of the 26 letters of the alphabet. Determine the probabilities of drawing one slip, what is P (slip contains a vowel)?

Consider a bowl containing 36 different slips of paper. Ten of the slips of

paper each contain one of the digits from the set 0 through 9 and 26 slips
each contain one of the 26 capital letters of the alphabet. If one slip is drawn
at random, what is P(slip contains a letter formed from straight�]line
segments only)?
A) 11/36 B) 15/26 C) 25/36 D) 15/36

15 letters formed with straight lines.

36 different slips.
p = 15/36 or .416 - 42% rounded.

To determine the probability of drawing a slip that contains a vowel, we first need to find the total number of slips that the bowl contains. The problem states that there are 10 slips with digits (0-9) and 26 slips with letters (A-Z). Therefore, the total number of slips in the bowl is 10 + 26 = 36.

Next, we need to find the number of slips that contain vowels. Vowels in the English alphabet are the letters A, E, I, O, and U. So out of the 26 slips with letters, the number of slips that contain vowels is 5.

Now, we can calculate the probability by dividing the number of slips that contain vowels by the total number of slips in the bowl:

Probability (P) of drawing a slip that contains a vowel = Number of slips with vowels / Total number of slips
P(vowel) = 5 / 36

Therefore, the probability of drawing a slip that contains a vowel is 5/36.
