Question

Line segment JM has endpoints with coordinates -2 and 14 on a number line. Points K and L are on segment JM. K has a coordinate of 2 and point L has a coordinate of 8. Find the probability that a point on JM is placed first on JL and a second point is not placed on KL.

5/8
25/64
15/64
8/15

Answer 1

JM has length 16
JL has length 10
KL has length 6
so P(JL,~KL) = 10/16 * (16-6)/16 = ____

Answer 2

whats the answer ?
