Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  Number of yellow Skirt Number =5

Total skirt = [tex]5+8+4+3=20[/tex]

The probability that she will select a yellow skirt will be :_

[tex]\dfrac{5}{20}=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

Total faces in coin=2

Number of tails = 1

The probability that the coin will land tails up :-

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Since ,both events are independent , then the probability that she will select a yellow skirt and that the coin will land tails up is  given by :-

[tex]\dfrac{1}{5}\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]
