We assume the probability on each side is equally probable with probability 1/5.
sum=4 has outcomes:{1,4; 2,3; 3,2; 4,1}  4 possible outcomes
sum=8 has outcomes:{3,5; 4,4; 5,3} 3 possible outcomes.
Total possible outcomes = 5*5=25
there probability of rolling a sum of 4 or 8, by the law of addition, equals
4/25+3/25=7/25

Note: a regular (i.e. fully symmetric) five-sided solid does not exist, so there has to be asymmetry among the probabilities of the five possible outcomes.  In addition, it does not have a "top" face, so that makes rolling a five-sided solid a little more difficult to visualize.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

59 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

In the table of values ​​it is observed that for each day of training 2 minutes are increasing and that day 1 begins with 5 minutes of training , so

y(x)=2\frac{min}{d}(x)+3min, where x= evaluation day

we have to for the day 28

y(28)=2\frac{min}{d}(28d)+3min=59min

What is the standard form of (6x^2-8x-7)+(8x^2-76x)
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:  14x^2 - 84x - 7

====================================================

Explanation:

The like terms 6x^2 and 8x^2 combine to 14x^2

The like terms -8x and -76x combine to -84x

Nothing pairs with the -7, so its stays as is.

Standard form is where we list the terms in decreasing exponent order. We can think of -84x as -84x^1 and the -7 as -7x^0. So 14x^2 - 84x - 7 would be the same as 14x^2 - 84x^1 - 7x^0. The exponents count down: 2,1,0.

The final answer is a trinomial since it has three terms. It is also a quadratic because the degree (highest exponent) is 2.
