To isolate x, we will first subtract 0.8 from both sides.
0.6x + 0.8 = 1.4
-0.8 -0.8
0.6x = 0.6
Now all we have to do is divide both sides by 0.6, because it is the number besides x.
0.6x/0.6 = 0.6/0.6
x = 1
So you get the answer of x = 1.
Hello there! Given that normal dice are numbered 1-6, individually rolling a 4 or a 5 would give a 1/6 probability. That converts to about 17% as a percentage because we can multiply 1 by 100 to get 100/6, then divide 100 by 6 to get 16.6666. When rounding, that gives approximately 17%. However, if we combined probabilities, we would find that rolling a 4 or a 5 collectively gives a 2/6 probability, which is approximately 33% as a decimal.
In terms of individual probabilities, you would be 17% likely to roll one of them. In terms of collectiveness, the likelihood of rolling a 4 or 5 would render 33% on each die. If you need additional help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
The answer is actually 1.571
