Hello,

if 3x+12>0 then |3x+12|=3x+12
so 3x+12=18==>3x=6==>x=2

if 3x+12<0 then |3x+12|=-(3x+12)=-3x-12
so -3x-12=18 ==>-3x=30==>x=-10

Two solutions!

I roll a six-sided die 4 times. Find chances for each of the following events: a) the first die roll is bigger than the second o
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

=0.5278

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The first die roll is bigger than the second or the first roll is a 3

Cases for 2 rolls are   (1,1)(1,2)(1,3)....(1,6),(2,1)(2,2)..... (total 36)

We will get 6 cases when they are equal and 15 when 1st is bigger and 15 when 1st is smaller

So   Let  A is the event when first roll bigger

B is the event when First roll=3

So

P(A)=15/36

P(B) =1/6

P(A and B)=2/36

So

P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B)

=15/36+1/6-2/36

=19/36

=0.5278
