You roll a six sided die. What is the probability of rolling a 1 or a number greater than 4.

Romashka [77]

A. 1/2

This is because there are 6 possible outcomes. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

The probability of rolling 1, 5, and 6 is 3 out of 6 (3/6)

3/6 reduced is 1/2.

Answer: c) x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

$2\ log_3\ (x+4)-log_3\ 9=2\\\\2\ log_3\ (x+4)-log_3\ 3^2=2\\\\2\ log_3\ (x+4)-2=2\\\\2\ log_3\ (x+4)=4\\\\log_3\ (x+4)=2\\\\x + 4 = 3^2\\\\x+4=9\\\\\large\boxed{x=5}$

an ice fisherman wishes to cut a hole in the ice which has a diameter of 30 cm. How far around must he cut to create this hole?

olga55 [171]

Given:

Diameter of the hole = 30 cm

To find:

The area of the hole.

Solution:

The radius of a circle is always half of the diameter. It is given that the diameter of the hole is 30 cm. So, the radius of the hole is:

$r=\dfrac{30}{2}$

$r=15$

Area of a circle is:

$A=\pi r^2$

Putting $\pi = 3.14$ and $r=15$ in the above formula, we get

$A=(3.14)(15)^2$

$A=(3.14)(225)$

$A=706.5$

Therefore, the area of the hold is 706.5 square cm.
