Answer: 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is calculated by number of possible outcomes/ total outcomes

From the question, a coin only has two sides, Head or Tail. Total outcomes is therefore equal to 2

Possible outcome is to toss a head, which is one event

Probability of tossing a head is therefore =1/2

The second part of the question is rolling a die with eight sides.

Here, the die is said to have eight sides, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Total outcomes is therefore equal to 8

Possible outcome of rolling a number greater than 5 is 3 possibilities, that is rolling 6, 7 and 8.

Pr(rolling > 5) is 3/8

Therefore, Pr ( head; rolling > than 5)

= 1/2 + 3/8

=7/8

I hope this is clear, please mark as brainliest answer

\boxed{\large{\bold{\blue{ANSWER~:) }}}}

  • 5x+2(2x-23)=-154

  • 5x+4x-46=-154

  • 9x-46=-154

  • 9x=-154+46

  • 9x=-108

  • x=\sf{\dfrac{-108}{9}  }

  • x=-12

a snowplow has maximum speed of 40 miles per hour on a dry highway. It's maximum speed decreases by 1.2 miles per hour for every
vova2212 [387]

Step-by-step explanation:

The snowplow's speed is 40 mph minus the loss from the snow, which is 1.2 mph times the depth of snow in inches.

y = 40 − 1.2x

When y = 0:

0 = 40 − 1.2x

1.2x = 40

x = 33 ⅓

The snowplow stops moving when the snow is 33 ⅓ inches deep or more.
