Answer:

The probability that the first die is a 2 or the second die is a prime = 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,a fair (6 sided) die is rolled TWO times.

The sample space for rolling 2 dies

(1, 1), (1, 2) .......... (1,6)

(2,1) ..........................

(6, 1) ..........................(6, 6)

There are total of 6^2 = 36 sample space

<u>To find the probability</u>

The prime numbers from 1 to 6 are 2, 3 and 5

the possible outcomes are(2,1), (2, 3) and (2, 5)

The probability that the first die is a 2 or the second die is a prime = 3/36 = 1/12

Helga [31]

Answer:

Hi there I was just working on this question on UsaTestPrep and idk if the answer is really correct but here: C: reflection then rotation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Extra Info:

Dilation is when the shape changes in size, which doesn't happen.

Translation is when it just moves across. It may look like that is happening here, but I'll explain.

The triangle is first reflected along the line . Imaging putting a mirror on the x=0 line (the y axis, basically), and you'd see 1 to 2.

Then, it is rotated around the point . Get a bit of tracing paper, draw over 2, and then, holding the tracing paper down at (works well with a pencil), rotate it round and you will find it fits perfectly over 3.

Also is this the diagram?

spayn [35]

Answer:

There was 32.5mm of rainfall on the seventh day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of a data-set:

The mean of a data-set is the sum of all values of a data-set divided by the number of values in the data-set.

The mean daily rainfall for a week was 5.5mm.for the first six days the mean rainfall was 1mm.

This means that during the week(7 days), the total amount of rain was of:

$6*1 + x = 6 + x$

How much rainfall on the seventh day ?

This is x. We have that:

$\frac{6 + x}{7} = 5.5$

$6 + x = 7*5.5$

$6 + x = 38.5$

$x = 38.5 - 6 = 32.5$

There was 32.5mm of rainfall on the seventh day.
