You can try then by plotting the points in.
The answer is C
Make sure by plotting in the points, lets take (-5,27)
y = 12 -3(-5)
y = 12 + 15
y = 27
27 = 27
This is correct
Lets try (-1,15)
y = 12 -3(-1)
y = 12 + 3
y = 15
15 = 15
This is correct
Lets try (8,-12)
y = 12 -3(8)
y = 12 - 24
y = -12
-12 = -12
This is correct too.
The correct ordered pairs are <span>C(-5,27),(-1,15),(8,-12)</span>
The logic is there are six sides to each die, so for each number on one die you can pair with six different numbers on the other die. Therefore, the probability of rolling a prime number on two dice is 15/36, which reduces to 5/12.
Answer:
The answer just so happens to be 6!
