Answer:

a dice goes from 1-6

6+1=7

6+2=8

6+3=9

6+4=10

6+5=11

6+6=12

Of those possible choices, 5 are greater than or equal to 8. So the answer is 5/6.

Answer with explanation:

⇒Total Possible outcome when a dice is thrown twice =6²=36

={(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(5,5),(6,6),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),(2,3),(2,4).......(6,5)}

→Total Favorable Outcome = Sum of the Number on the dice should be greater than or equal to 8 and one of the dice must show 6.

→A =Sum of the two numbers on the dice should be ,8, 9,10,11,12.

={(4,4),(5,3),(3,5),(6,2),(2,6),(6,3),(3,6),(5,4),(4,5),(5,5),(4,6),(6,4),(6,5),(5,6),(6,6)}

=15

→B={(6,2),(2,6),(6,3),(3,6),(4,6),(6,4),(6,5),(5,6),(6,6)}

→A ∩ B=B

Total Favorable Outcome ={(6,2),(2,6),(6,3),(3,6),(4,6),(6,4),(6,5),(5,6),(6,6)}=9

Required Probability

              =\frac{\text{Total Possible Outcome}}{\text{Total Possible Outcome}}\\\\=\frac{9}{36}\\\\=\frac{1}{4}

A prairie dog left its burrow 5 feet underground and started digging deeper into the ground. It digs straight down at a constant
SpyIntel [72]

Building and solving an equation to model the situation, it is found that it takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.

  • Initially, the dog is 5 feet underground.
  • Each minute, the dog goes 2 more feet underground.

Hence, the underground height of the dog after t seconds is given by:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

The time it takes for the dog to reach 13 feet underground is <u>t for which h(t) = 13</u>, hence:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

13 = 5 + 2t

2t = 8

t = \frac{8}{2}

t = 4

It takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.

In how many ways can you choose 2 side dishes out of 8
Alina [70]
The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
               For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.

     Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .

BUT ...

That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.

For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A).  Either way, you wind up with (A and B).

So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.

Stuart's bank account had a balance of - $54.19 last month. This month he won a cash prize of $70.82 for winning a competition.
Alenkinab [10]

If Stuart starts with -$54.19 then gains $70.82, you have to add the gained amount to the origin amount. Since the origin amount is negative, you can also subtract the origin amount from the gained amount to find the amount left at the end of the month.

Add 70.82 to -54.19

-54.19 + 70.82 = 16.63

<u>Alternative method:</u>

First, subtract 54.19 from 70.82.

70.82 - 54.19 = 16.63

Add 54.19 to -54.19, bringing you to 0.

-54.19 + 54.19 = 0

Now add the remaining 16.63.

0 + 16.63 = 16.63

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Stuart will have </u><u>$16.63</u><u> at the end of this month.</u>

GenaCL600 [577]
Use binomial distribution, with p=0.20, n=20, x=3
P(X=x)=C(n,x)p^x (1-p)^(n-x)

P(X>=3)
=1-(P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2))
=1-(C(20,0)0.2^0 (0.8)^(20-0)+C(20,1)0.2^1 (0.8)^(20-1)+C(20,2)0.2^2 (0.8)^(20-2))
=1-(0.0115292+0.057646+0.136909)
=1-0.206085
