A 6 sided number cube is tossed. what is the probability of rolling a 6 or an odd number?

1 answer:

3 0

For any probability the formula is $P_{desired}=\frac{desired}{total}$ . In this case we have 4 desired outcomes (the odds, 1, 3 and 5, and also 6) out of 6 total sides, so our probability $P_{oddor6} =\frac{odd or 6}{total sides}=\frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}$ .

Mutually exclusive means the events cant occur at the same time. In our case it is not possible to roll both a 6 and an odd number at the same time since 6 is even. Therefore the events ARE mutually exclusive.

Combine the two parts and C is the correct answer. <span />

Solve for x: 18 over 10= x over 12 Prove your answer in the show your work box.<br> Pls hurry

alexandr1967 [171]

i'm doing cross-multiplication for this problem:

$\frac{18}{10}=\frac{x}{12}$ multiply 18 · 12, which is 216

$\frac{216}{10}=x$ divide 216 ÷ 10, which is 21.6

$21.6 = x$ , is the final answer

20 is 40 percent of??? please need answer

Fed [463]

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original number.

This question can be expressed as:

0.4x = 20

0.4 of the original number is 20.

Now, we can directly solve for x:

4x = 200

x = 50

Mr. T's Tea store has two kinds of tea. Tea A costs $9 per pound and Tea B cost $6 per pound. How many pounds of each should be

harina [27]

Answer:

y=447.3 pounds

x= 297.3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Tea A costs $9 per pound and

Tea B cost $6 per pound.

let the number of pounds of Tea A be x

and for Tea B be y pounds

The total cost of the mixture = $8 per pound

hence

9x+6y=8---------1

The total weight of the mixture

150 pounds

x+y=150-----------2

Step two:

9x+6y=8---------1

x+y=150---------2

from eqn 2 x=150-y

put x= 150-y in eqn 1

9(150-y)+6y=8---------1

1350-9y+6y=8

1350-8=9y-6y

1342=3y

divide both sides by 3

y= 1342/3

y=447.3 pounds

put y= 447.3 in eqn 2

x+447.3= 150

x= 150-446=7.3

x= -297.3

x= 297.3 pounds

One angle of a triangle measures 65°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:20. What are the measures of those two angles?

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

15° and 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

$65 + 3x + 20x = 180$

$23x = 115$

$x = 5$

3 × 5 = 15, 20 × 5 = 100. So the other two angles measure 15° and 100°.
