Question
A dartboard has 
5
 equally sized slices numbered from 
1
 to 
5
.
Some are grey and some are white.
The slices numbered 
2
3
, and 
4
 are grey.
The slices numbered 
1
 and 
5
 are white.

 

A dart is tossed and lands on a slice at random.
Let 
X
 be the event that the dart lands on a grey slice, and let 
PX
 be the probability of 
X
.

 

Let not 
X
 be the event that the dart lands on a slice that is not grey, and let 
P
not
 X
 be the probability of not 
X
.
 

 

(a)For each event in the table, check the outcome(s) that are contained in the event. Then, in the last column, enter the probability of the event.

(c)Select the answer that makes the sentence true.

 

−1PX
 is the same as ▼(Choose one).
