Answer:
(A) spinning red
(B) picking blue
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 9 sections to the spinner, so the probabilities of spinning the colors of interest are ...
red: 3/9 = 1/3
blue: 4/9
__
There are 12 balls in the bag, so the probabilities of picking the colors of interest are ...
blue: 4/12 = 1/3
red: 5/12
__
We note that the numbers that are the same on these lists are 1/3 for spinning red and picking blue. We also note that point A on the number line is located at about 1/3 (more than 1/4, less than 3/8).
The events that can be modeled by point A on the number line are ...
- spinning red
- picking a blue ball
