The sums that appear when two fair? four-sided dice? (tetrahedrons) with sides 1?, 2?, 3?, and 4 are tossed

Karolina [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The possible sums are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 & 8 (but they're not all equally likely)

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, the only way to get a sum of 2 is to roll a 1 and then a 1

And the only way to get a sum of 8 is to roll a 4 and then a 4 (imagine you don't roll the two dice simultaneously; this will help you to see the "other possibilities" that aren't obvious at first)

The probability of rolling a sum of 2 = probability of rolling sum of 8 (1/16 probability for each)

If you roll a 1 then a 2, or a 2 then a 1, there are 2 ways to get a sum of 3

If you roll a 3 then a 1, a 2 then a 2, or a 1 then a 3, there are 3 ways to get a sum of 4

If you roll a 4 then a 1, a 3 then a 2, a 2 then a 3, or a 1 then a 4, there are 4 ways to get a sum of 5 (5 is the most likely sum)

If you roll a 4 then a 2, a 3 then a 3, or a 2 then a 4, there are 3 ways to get a sum of 6

If you roll a 4 then a 3, or a 3 then a 4, there are 2 ways to get a sum of 7

Find the surface area of a cylinder with a base radius of 2 yd and a height of 3 yd.
kherson [118]

Answer:

20 π

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cylinder is made up of 2 circles and its side.

To find the circles' areas, use the area formula for a circle: A = πr^2.

Since our radius is 2 yd, we can substitute r = 2 into this formula.

A = π2^2 = 4π

Now remember, this is only the area of once circle. Multiply 4π by 2 to get the area of both circles: 8π.

Now we need to find the surface area of the side.

If we flatten it out, we can see that the side is actually a curled up rectangle.

The length is the circumference of the circle and the width is the height of the cylinder.

To find the circumference, use the circumference formula for a circle: C = 2πr.

Substitute r = 2 into the formula.

C = 2π2 = 4π

Now that we know that the length is 4π, we can multiply the length by the width to find the area of the cylinder's side.

l = 4π

w = 3

A = lw = 4π * 3 = 12π

Finally, we can add the areas of the circles and the side to get the total surface area.

8π + 12π  = 20π

And that is your answer!

A recommendation for wheelchair ramps is that the rise-to-run ratio be no greater than 1:12. This ensures that the ramps are nav
patriot [66]

Answer:

a. 12 feet b. 12 feet 0.5 inches c. 8.33 %

Step-by-step explanation:

a. How far out horizontally on the ground will it protrude from the building?

Since the rise to run ratio is 1:12 and the building is 12 inches off the ground, let x be the horizontal distance the ramp protrudes.

So, by ratios rise/run = 1/12 = 12/x

1/12 = 12/x

x = 12 × 12

x = 144 inches

Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144 inches = 144 × 1 inch = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches = 12 feet

b. How long should the ramp be?

The length of the ramp, L is gotten from Pythagoras' theorem since the ramp is a right-angled triangle with sides 12 inches and 144 inches respectively.

So, L = √(12² + 144²)

= √[12² + (12² × 12²)]

= 12√(1 + 144)

= 12√145

= 12 × 12.042

= 144.5 inches

Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144.5 inches = 144 × 1 inch + 0.5 inches = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches + 0.5 inches = 12 feet 0.5 inches

c. What percent grade is the ramp?

The percentage grade of the ramp = rise/run × 100 %

= 12 inches/144 inches × 100 %

= 1/12 × 100 %

= 0.0833 × 100 %

= 8.33 %
