1 and 1/8 of a gallon. 8 pitchers would equal 8/8 = 1. then we have the pitcher #9 that gives you another 1/8

One 8th of a gallon is 16 Ounces, or a pint.

So he would have 144 ounces, or 9 pints.

A single die is rolled twice. The set of 36 equally likely outcomes is {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 1),

Answer:

(9) $\frac{1}{12}$ (10) $\frac{1}{12}$ (11) $\frac{5}{12}$ (12) $\frac{1}{4}$ (13) $\frac{1}{6}$ 14) $\frac{5}{36}$ (15) $\frac{1}{12}$ (16)0

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample Space of the single die rolled twice is presented below:

{(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),}.

n(S)=36

(9)Probability of getting two numbers whose sum is 9.

The possible outcomes are: (3, 6), (4, 5), (5, 4)

$P(\text{two numbers whose sum})=\frac{3}{36}=\frac{1}{12}$

10) Probability of getting two numbers whose sum is 4.

The possible outcomes are: (1, 3),(2, 2),(3, 1),

$P(\text{two numbers whose sum})=\frac{3}{36}=\frac{1}{12}$

11.)Find the probability of getting two numbers whose sum is less than 7.

The possible outcomes are: (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (4, 1), (4, 2), (5, 1)

$P(\text{two numbers whose sum is less than 7})=\frac{15}{36}=\frac{5}{12}$

12.Probability of getting two numbers whose sum is greater than 8

The possible outcomes are:(4, 5), (4, 6), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)

$P(\text{two numbers whose sum is greater than 8})=\frac{9}{36}=\frac{1}{4}$

(13)Probability of getting two numbers that are the same (doubles).

The possible outcomes are:(1, 1)(2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6)

$P(\text{two numbers that are the same})=\frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}$

14.Probability of getting a sum of 7 given that one of the numbers is odd.

The possible outcomes are: (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 3), (5, 2), (6, 1)

$P(\text{getting a sum of 7 given that one of the numbers is odd.})=\frac{5}{36}$

(15)Probability of getting a sum of eight given that both numbers are even numbers.

The possible outcomes are: (2, 6), (4, 4), (6, 2)

$P(\text{getting a sum of eight given that both numbers are even numbers.})=\frac{3}{36}\\=\frac{1}{12}$

16.Probability of getting two numbers with a sum of 14.

$P(\text{getting two numbers with a sum of 14.})=\frac{0}{36}=0$

Find 2 a for a = 3 1/4 1) 6 1/2 2) 6 1/4 3) 23 1/4 4) 5 1/2

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

1) 6 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Put 3 1/4 where "a" is and do the arithmetic.

2(3 1/4) = 2·3 + 2·(1/4) = 6 2/4 = 6 1/2

Gary bought 32 lb of potting soil this week this amount is 6 lb more than twice the amount of potting soil he bought last week a

lys-0071 [83]

Let the amount of potting soil bought last week be $x$

We know that this week's amount is 32 lb
We also know that this week's amount is double the amount of last week's plus 6 lb

So we write the equation:
$32 = 2x+6$

Solving this equation:
$32=2x+6$ ⇒ subtracting 6 from both sides
$32-6=2x+6-6$
$26=2x$ ⇒ Dividing both sides by 2
$\frac{26}{2}= \frac{2x}{2}$
$13=x$

The answer is: 13
