Question

If the difference between the probability of success and failure of an event is 3 upon 17


.
Find the probability of success and failure of the event.

Answer 1

Answer:

this correct answer of this question

Answer 2

Answer:

10/17,. 7/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability of success be x

then the probablity of failure= 1-x

A/q,

x-(1-x) =3/17

x-1+x=3/17

2x=3/17+1

2x=20/17

x= 10/17

hence the probability of success is 10/17

the probablity of failure is 1-10/17= 7/17
