We need to define our outcomes and events.

 

Finding the probability<span> of each event occurring separately, and then multiplying the probabilities is the step to <span>finding  the probability</span> of two independent events that occur in sequence.

</span>

<span>
To solve this problem, we take note of this:</span>

 

The roll of the two dice are denoted by the pair

(I, j) ∈ S={ (1, 1),(1, 2),..., (6,6) }

Each pair is an outcome. There are 36 pairs and each has probability 1/36. The event “doubles” is { (1, 1),(2, 2)(6, 6) } has probability p= 6/36 = 1/6. If we define ”doubles” as a successful roll, the number of rolls N until we observe doubles is a geometric (p) random variable and has expected value E[N] = 1/p = 6.

Which is a complete list of factors of each term in the expression
vaieri [72.5K]

A factor is one part of a product.

In the given expression first we separate the terms.

here we have two terms: 15 and 20x

factors of first term 15 : since just one number is there so factors of 15 would be 1, 3, 5 and 15

factors of second term 20x: product of 20 and x gives 20x, so factors of 20x are 1,2,4,5, 10,20 and x

Dmitry [639]

Answer: he fly 107.76 miles per hour for each hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Charles Lendbergh had his first solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean. He flew 3,610 miles in 33.5 hours.

Speed = distance /time

If he flew about the same number of miles each hour, it means that the number of miles that he flies in each hour would be

3610/33.5

= 107.76.miles per hour.
