We define the probability of a particular event occurring as:
\frac{number\ of \ desired\ outcomes}{number\ of\ possible\ outcomes}

What are the total number of possible outcomes for the rolling of two dice? The rolls - though performed at the same time - are <em>independent</em>, which means one roll has no effect on the other. There are six possible outcomes for the first die, and for <em>each </em>of those, there are six possible outcomes for the second, for a total of 6 x 6 = 36 possible rolls.

Now that we've found the number of possible outcomes, we need to find the number of <em>desired</em> outcomes. What are our desired outcomes in this problem? They are asking for all outcomes where there is <em>at least one 5 rolled</em>. It turns out, there are only 3:

(1) D1 - 5, D2 - Anything else, (2), D1 - Anything else, D2 - 5, and (3) D1 - 5, D2 - 5

So, we have \frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{12} probability of rolling at least one 5.

Triangle ABC has the following coordinates: A (-2, 3) B (4, -3) C (-2, -3) What are the coordinates points for triangle A'B'C' i
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

A' (3/2, -9/4)

B' (-3, 9/4)

C' (3/2, 9/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have the following coordinates of the vertices of the triangle ABC:

A (-2, 3) B (4, -3) C (-2, -3)

2. The given scale factor is -3/4, therefore, to calculate the coordinates of the triangle  A'B'C', you must multiply each coordinate of the triangle ABC by the scale factor.

3. Therefore, you obtain that the the coordinates of the triangle  A'B'C' are:

A'=((-2)(-3/4), (3)(-3/4))=(3/2, -9/4)

B'=(4(-3/4), (-3)(-3/4))=(-3, 9/4)

C'=((-2)(-3/4), (-3)(-3/4))=(3/2, 9/4)

Please Help Meeeee!!! Will Mark Brainliest!!!
love history [14]

Answer:

Part A: Yes. For every 10 employees, an increase of 80 products produced.

Part B: y = 8x + 120

Part C: Y-intercept indicates the number of products produced when there are 0 employees. The slope indicates the rate of increase of production with the number of employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: 80 - 0 = 80 employees; 760 - 120 = 640 products. Therefore, 640/80 = 8 products per employee <u>or</u> 80 products per 10 employees

Part B: For y = mx + c ,

m = (Y1 - Y0)/(X1 - X0) = (760 - 120)/(80 - 0) = 8

c = Y-intercept, when X = 0. Therefore c = 120
