the probability that in bot rolls we have a sum of, at most, 8, is:

P = 47/ 1,296 = 0.036

<h3>How to find the probability?</h3>

The pair is tossed twice. A pair of dice has 36 possible outcomes, so if we toss twice the pair, the total number of outcomes is:

36*36 = 1,296

Now if we define the outcomes as:

{dice 1 (roll1), dice2(roll1), dice 1 (roll2), dice2(roll2) }

The outcomes that give at most a sum of 8 are:

{1, 1, 1, 1}

{2, 1, 1, 1} ( 3 permutations)

{2, 2, 1, 1} ( 6 permutations).

{2, 2, 2, 1} ( 3 permutations)

{3, 1, 1, 1} ( 3 permutations)

{3, 2, 1, 1} ( 12 permutations)

{3, 3, 1, 1} (6 permutations)

{4, 1, 1, 1} (3 permutations)

{4, 2, 1, 1} (6 permutations)

{5, 1, 1 , 1} (3 permutations)

{2, 2, 2, 2}

These are all the outcomes that give a sum of, at most, 8.

If we add all the outcomes we get 47 outcomes.

Then the probability that in bot rolls we have a sum of, at most, 8, is:

P = 47/ 1,296 = 0.036

Which expression is equivalent to (7x – 5) – (3x - 2)
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression

(7x-5)-(3x-2)

First we need to distribute the negative throughout the parenthesis. Then we can combine like terms in order to simplify this expression

(7x-5)-(3x-2)\\\\7x-5-3x+2\\\\4x-3

This answer matches D.
