Answer:
x = 17 and y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is a parallelogram
So AB = CD and AD = BC
so
3x - 9 = 42
3x = 51
x = 17
and
4y - 3 = 37
4y = 40
y = 10
Answer
x = 17 and y = 10
<span>4x - 15 = 3 </span>
<span>4x = 3 + 15 </span>
<span>4x = 18 (divide both sides by 4 to get x) </span>
<span>4x/4 = 18/4 </span>
<span>x = 4.5 </span>
Let Peter's hit be x and Alice's runs be y.
x = 2(y - 6) . . . (1)
x + y = 18 . . . (2)
Putting (1) into (2) gives,
2y - 12 + y = 18
3y = 18 + 12 = 30
y = 30/3 = 10
x = 2(10 - 6) = 2(4) = 8
Therefore, Peter hit 8 home runs and Alice hit 10 home runs.
¹/24
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of favorable outcomes (rolling a 5) is 3
The total number of possible outcomes is 12 * 6 = 72
Therefore;
P(5) = 3/72
= 1/24
