Your method is completely correct. The first term will be 6 and each subsequent term can be obtained by adding 6 to the previous one, meaning the common difference is 6. The number of terms is given by the highest number that is divisible by 6 and dividing it by 6; that is 996/6 = 166
Then we simply apply the formula for arithmetic sequence sum:
S = n/2 [2a₁ + (n - 1)d]
S = 166/2 [ 2(6) + (166 - 1)6]
S = 83,166

Sixty-three less than 15 times a number is 72. what is the number?

exis [7]

Answer:

-3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First represent this with numbers. Less means subtraction -, times means multiplication *, is means equals =.

And let's represent "a number" with x.

63 - 15x = 72

Solve for x. First subtract 63 from both sides.

-15x = 72-63

-15x = 9

x = -9/15 = <u>-3/5</u>

in a standard casino dice game the roller wins on the first roll if he rolls a sum of 7 or 11. what is the probability of winnin

Alborosie

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The probability of winning on the first roll is </em><em>0.22</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

As in the game of casino, two dice are rolled simultaneously.

So the sample space would be,

$|S|=6^2=36$

Let E be the event such that the sum of two numbers are 7, so

E = {(1,6), (2,5), (3,4), (4,3), (5,2), (6,1)}

$|E|=56$

$\therefore P(E)=\dfrac{|E|}{|S|}=\dfrac{6}{36}$

Let F be the event such that the sum of two numbers are 11, so

F = {(6,5), (5,6)}

$|F|=2$

$\therefore P(F)=\dfrac{|F|}{|S|}=\dfrac{2}{36}$

Now,

$P(\text{sum is 7 or 11)}=P(E\ \cup\ F)=P(E)+P(F)=\dfrac{6}{36}+\dfrac{2}{36}=\dfrac{8}{36}=\dfrac{2}{9}=0.22$
