The probability of rolling an odd number or a number less than 5 is 5/6.

Probability is the likelihood of the occurrence of an event. It is the ratio of number of events to number of possible outcomes.

The possible outcome from rolling a six-sided die is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6

P(odd number) = 3/6; P(less than 5) = 4/6; P(odd number and less than 5) = 2/6

Hence:

P(odd number or less than 5) = 3/6 + 4/6 - 2/6 = 5/6

The probability of rolling an odd number or a number less than 5 is 5/6.

A 10-ft vertical post casts a 14-inch shadow at the same time a nearby cell phone tower cast a 119-ft shadow. How tall is the ce
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using proportions, by a rule of three.

A 10-ft post casts a 14-inch shadow.

Each feet has 12 inches, which means that a post with 10 feet will cast a 14/12 = 1.167 ft shadow. How tall is the cell-phone tower with a 119-feet shadow?

10 feet post - 1.167 ft shadow

x feet tower - 119 feet shadow

Applying cross multiplication:

1.167x = 10*119

x = \frac{1190}{1.167}

x = 1020

The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.

Two less than three times a number is the same as six more than twice the number. Write an equation and solve to find the number
lapo4ka [179]

Answer: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be represented by x.

Two less than three times a number is the same as six more than twice the number. This will be:

(3 × x) - 2 = (2 × x) + 6

3x - 2 = 2x + 6

Collect like terms.

3x - 2x = 6 + 2

x = 8.

The number is 8
