Q. Dalton is shopping for a new bicycle. He is most interested in color and type of tires.\begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|}\hline Road bike tires & Mountain bike tires \\\hline Red & 5 & 6 \\\hline Green & 4 & 5 \\\hline\end{tabular}What is the probability that a randomly selected bike is green or has road bike tires?Simplify any fractions.□
Count Total Bikes: Count the total number of bikes. Add up all the bikes in the table.5 (Red Road) + 6 (Red Mountain) + 4 (Green Road) + 5 (Green Mountain) = 20 bikes total.
Count Green Bikes: Count the number of green bikes. Add the green road bikes to the green mountain bikes.4 (Green Road) + 5 (Green Mountain) = 9 green bikes.
Count Road Bikes: Count the number of bikes with road bike tires. Add the red road bikes to the green road bikes.5 (Red Road) + 4 (Green Road) = 9 road bikes.
Calculate Probability: Calculate the probability of selecting a green bike or a bike with road tires. Since some bikes are both green and have road tires, we need to subtract the overlap to avoid double-counting.P(Green or Road Tires)=P(Green)+P(Road Tires)−P(Green and Road Tires)P(Green or Road Tires)=209+209−204
Simplify Fraction: Simplify the fraction. P(Green or Road Tires)=209+9−4=2014
Reduce Fraction: Reduce the fraction to its simplest form. 2014 can be simplified to 107 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2.
