A jar contains 110 jelly beans: 32 white, 28 green, 21 yellow, 15 red and 14 purple. If a jelly bean is chosen at random, what is the probability that the jelly bean will be neither red nor purple?

c. 1,233 miles

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
