There are six sides on each die. For each possible score on Die 1, there are six possible scores on Die 2. So the number of possible combinations is 6*6 = 36. 
<span>It follows that if the dice are thrown 36 times, you would expect each combination to come up once. </span>

<span>We therefore simply need to know how many combinations add up to less than 5. (I've interpreted this as not including a total of 5 itself). </span>
<span>These combinations are: 1 and 1, 2 and 1, 1 and 2, 2 and 2, 3 and 1, and 1 and 3 ---> six combinations out of 36. </span>

<span>So you'd expect a sum less than 5 six times. </span>

Answer:

  3.  C(−1, −5), D(2, −5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are 2 -(-1) = 3 units apart horizontally, so the remaining points will need to be 18/3 = 6 units below, vertically. Translating the given points down 6 gives ...

  D = A -(0, 6) = (2, 1) -(0, 6) = (2, -5)

  C = B -(0, 6) = (-1, 1) -(0, 6) = (-1, -5)

The two points required to make a rectangle with an area of 18 square units are ...

  C(-1, -5), D(2, -5)

_____

The area of a rectangle is the product of length and width. If the area is 18 square units, and the width is 3 units, then the length must be 6 units. 3×6=18.
