\large\boxed{x=-\frac{7}{2}}

To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.

The most important part of this is knowing that whatever we do to one side of the equation, we must also do to the other.

Subtract 32 from both sides of the equation.

\begin{aligned}32-32-6x&=53-32\\-6x&=21\end{aligned}

Divide both sides of the equation by -6.

\begin{aligned}\frac{-6x}{-6}&=\frac{21}{-6}\\x&=\boxed{-\frac{7}{2}}\end{aligned}

Answer:

x = - 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

32 - 6x = 53 ( subtract 32 from both sides )

- 6x = 21 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = \frac{21}{-6} = - \frac{7}{2} = - 3.5

Normal six-sided dice have a different number of pips on each face, from 1 to 6. You roll two such dice and add the result.
NARA [144]

Answer:

1) 16.7% probability of rolling 10+.

2) 50% probability an odd number is rolled.

3) 7 is the most likely total result.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are all the possible outcomes:

(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5),(1,6)

(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5),(2,6)

(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5),(3,6)

(4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5),(4,6)

(5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5),(5,6)

(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5),(6,6)

There are 36 possible outcomes

1) what is the probability of rolling 10+?

There are 6 possible outcomes in which 10+ is rolled:

(4,6), (5,5),(5,6), (6,4), (6,5),(6,6).

So there is a 6/36 = 0.167 = 16.7% probability of rolling 10+.

2) what is the probability of rolling an odd number?

There are 18 possible outcomes in which an odd number is rolled.

So there is a 18/36 = 0.5 = 50% probability an odd number is rolled.

3) what is the total that is most likely to result?

There are 6 outcomes in which 7 is rolled.

So 7 is the most likely total result.
