This could be a situation in which items are both bought and sold. In calculating the inventory, positive numbers represent items bought, negative numbers represent items sold and 0 would be no items in the inventory.
Another type of situation would be the displacement of an object from the original position. Where 0 would represent the original/starting position, positive values would represent distance moved forward, negative values represent distance moved backwards.
Total number of possible outcomes = 36
Total number of outcomes with a sum of 12 = 1
{6,6)
Total number of outcomes with a sum of 3 = 2
{1,2}{2,1}
P(12 first, then 3) = (1/36)(2/36) = 1/648
Answer: The probability is 1/648
Answer:
The area of the triangle is six square metres.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the triangle is half the area of the rectangle that it fits in. This one is particularly simple, as it's a right triangle and we're given its width and height, so it's area is:
w × h ÷ 2
= 3 × 4 ÷ 2
= 3 × 2
= 6
