You roll two fair dice, one green and one red. (a) Are the outcomes on the dice independent? Yes No (b) Find P(1 on green die an
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

a

  Yes

b

 P(1 \& 5) = \frac{1}{36}

c

 P(5 \& 1) = \frac{1}{36}

d

 P(5 \& 1 | 1\& 5  ) = \frac{1}{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     Two fair dice, one green and one red were rolled

Generally the  outcomes on the dice independent because the outcome on the first dice is not affected by the second die

Generally the  probability of getting a 1  on a dice rolled is  P(1) =  \frac{1}{6}

the  probability of getting a 5 on a dice rolled is  P(5) =  \frac{1}{6}

Generally the probability of P(1 on green die and 5 on red die) is mathematically represented as

         P(1 \& 5) = \frac{1}{6}  *\frac{1}{6}

         P(1 \& 5) = \frac{1}{36}

Generally the probability of P(5 on green die and 1 on red die) is mathematically represented as

          P(5 \& 1) = \frac{1}{6}  *\frac{1}{6}

         P(5 \& 1) = \frac{1}{36}

Generally the probability of P((1 on green die and 5 on red die) or (5 on green die and 1 on red die)) is mathematically represented as

          P(5 \& 1 | 1\& 5  ) = \frac{1}{36} + \frac{1}{36}

         P(5 \& 1 | 1\& 5  ) = \frac{1}{18}

The expression 6x2 gives the surface area of a cube, and the expression x3 gives the volume of a cube, where x is the length of
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

surface area of the cube is 96m² and the volume is 64m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the cube = 6x²

x is the side length

Given

x = 4metres

Surface area of the cube  = 6(4)²

Surface area of the cube = 6(16)

Surface area of the cube  = 96m²

Volume of the cube = x³

Volume of the cube = 4³

Volume of the cube = 64m³

Hence the surface area of the cube is 96m² and the volume is 64m³

Sergio [31]

Answer:

D. 4(2x² + 4x - 6); 130.0 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Margot is sewing a ribbon on a seam along the perimeter of a square pillow. The side length of the pillow is 2x²+1 inches. She plans to make a similar pillow, including the ribbon, whose side length is 4x−7 inches. What expression can be used for the length of ribbon that she needs for both pillows, and what is the length if x = 3.5?

2x2+4x−6; 22.0 inches

2x2+4x−6; 32.5 inches

4(2x2+4x−6;) 88.0 inches

4(2x2+4x−6;) 130.0 inches

Perimeter of a square = 4 * side length

1- First square pillow

length = 2x²+1 in

Perimeter of first pillow = 4 * (2x²+1) in

Second square pillow

length = 4x-7 in

Perimeter of second pillow = 4(4x-7) in

Total ribbon length required = perimeter of first square pillow + perimeter of second square pillow

Total ribbon length required = 4(2x²+1) + 4(4x-7)

Factorise

4 is the common factor

=4(2x²+1)+(4x-7)

=4(2x²+1+4x-7)

=4(2x²+4x-6)

Total ribbon length required=4(2x²+4x-6)

If x=3.5

Total ribbon length required=4(2x²+4x-6)

=4{2(3.5)²+4(3.5)-6}

=4{2(12.25)+14-6)

=4(24.5+14-6)

=4(32.5)

=130.0 inches
