<span>2/15 if drawn without replacement. 1/9 if drawn with replacement. Assuming that the chips are drawn without replacement, there are 6 * 5 different possibilities. And that's a low enough number to exhaustively enumerate them. So they are: 1,2 : 1,3 : 1,4 : 1,5 : 1,6 2,1 : 2,3 : 2,4 : 2,5 : 2,6 3,1 : 3,2 : 3.4 : 3,5 : 3,6 4,1 : 4,2 : 4.3 : 4,5 : 4,6 5,1 : 5,2 : 5.3 : 5,4 : 5,6 6,1 : 6,2 : 6.3 : 6,4 : 6,5 Of the above 30 possible draws, there are 4 that add up to 5. So the probability is 4/30 = 2/15 If the draw is done with replacement, then there are 36 possible draws. Once again, small enough to exhaustively list, they are: 1,1 : 1,2 : 1,3 : 1,4 : 1,5 : 1,6 2,1 : 2,2 : 2,3 : 2,4 : 2,5 : 2,6 3,1 : 3,2 : 3,3 : 3.4 : 3,5 : 3,6 4,1 : 4,2 : 4.3 : 4,4 : 4,5 : 4,6 5,1 : 5,2 : 5.3 : 5,4 : 5,5 : 5,6 6,1 : 6,2 : 6.3 : 6,4 : 6,5 : 6,6 And of the above 36 possibilities, exactly 4 add up to 5. So you have 4/36 = 1/9</span>

3p - 2(p-4) = 7p + 6
Serggg [28]

For this case we must find the value of the variable "p" of the following equation:

3p-2 (p-4) = 7p + 6

We apply distributive property on the left side of the equation taking into account that +*-=-  and - * - = +:

3p-2p + 8 = 7p + 6

We add similar terms:

p + 8 = 7p + 6

We subtract 7p  from both sides of the equation:

p-7p + 8 = 6\\-6p + 8 = 6

We subtract 8 from both sides of the equation:

-6p = 6-8\\-6p = -2

We divide by -6 on both sides of the equation:

p = \frac {-2} {- 6}\\p = \frac {1} {3}

Answer:

p = \frac {1} {3}

Find the value of x.<br> 50°<br> Type the correct answer, then<br> press Enter
Yuri [45]

Answer:

x=65

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the angles of any triangle is equal to 180°. So, we do 180-50= 130. Then we divide 30 by two because there are two remaining angles so 130/2=65. x=65

Use the Distributive Property to find the product.
tigry1 [53]
1) 4 divided by 7 = 0.57
2) 4 times 5 = 20 and 4 times 8 = 32
3) 20 plus 32 = 52
4) 0.57 times 52 = 29.64

5) answer : 29.64

i hope this is correct. i tried to break it down.

The tength of a picture frame is 12 cm more than twice the width. If the perimeter is 204cm, find the
alekssr [168]

Answer:

30cm x 72 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the measurements of all sides added together. Let's start by dividing the perimeter by 2, so we have the sum of the length and width. This gives us 102cm. Let's call the width <em>x</em>, and the length <em>y</em>. We know <em>y</em> is <em>x</em> times 2 plus 12. (2x + 12) So, we know [x + y = x + (2x + 12)]. So let's solve.

x + y = x + (2x + 12)

102 = x + (2x + 12)

102 = 3x + 12

102 - 12 = 3x + 12 - 12

90 = 3x

90/3 = 3x/3

30 = x

The width is 30cm.
