An ordinary Fair die is a cube with the numbers 1 through 6 on the sides represented by painted spots imagine that such a die is

rolled twice in succession and that the face values of the two roles are added together the sum is recorded as the outcome of a single trial of the random experiment.
Compute the probability of each of the following events:
Event A: The sum is greater than 8.
Event B: The sum is an even number.

Answer:  Probability of,  Event A = 5/18

Event B = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, The probability of an event = Number of outcomes of the event/ total number of outcomes.

Since, If a fair dire rolled two times then the total number of outcomes, n(S) = 6 × 6 = 36

And, Event A: The sum is greater than 8.

So, possible outcomes are, ( 3,6), (4,5), (4,6), (5,5), (5,6), (5,4), (6,6), (6,5), (6,4), (6,3)

Thus, n(A) = 10

Since, Probability of event A,

P(A) = n(A)/n(S) = 10/36 = 5/18

Therefore, P(A)= 5/18

Now, Event B: The sum is an even number.

So, possible outcomes are, (1,1),(1,3), (1,5), (2,2), (2,4), (2,6), (3,1), (3,3), (3,5), (4,6), (4,2), (4,4), (5,1), (5,3), (5,5), (6,2), (6,4), (6,6)

Thus, n(B)= 18

Since, Probability of event B,

P(B)= n(B)/n(S) = 18/36 = 1/2

Therefore, P(B)= 1/2

Please simplify this fraction c:
Liula [17]
F you just want to see the really short way, just skip down to AAAAAAAAAAAA

so, here is the long explanation
exponential properties
x^{-m}= \frac{1}{x^m}

don't forget pemdas
2x^2=2(x^2)

so
\frac{2x^{-4}}{3xy}=\frac{2 \frac{1}{x^4} }{3xy}=  \frac{2}{3x^5y}


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
so we see
the original equatio is
\frac{2x^{-4}}{3xy}

remember
\frac{ab}{cd} =( \frac{a}{c})( \frac{b}{d})

so we can seperate the constants
\frac{ab}{cd} =( \frac{2}{3})( \frac{x^{-4}}{xy})

we know that the placeholders cannot affet the position of the constants unless they are grouped together which they are not

terfor the answer must have 2/3 in it

the only one that hsa that is A

A portion of a roller coaster track is shown in the figure above. the roller coaster track is shown at ground level at point S a
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is classic right triangle trig.  The height of the hill is 78.4 which serves as the side opposite the reference angle of 23 degrees.  The side we are looking for is the hypotenuse of that triangle.  The trig ratio that relates the side opposite a reference angle to the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the sin ratio.  Setting it up using our values:

sin(23)=\frac{78.4}{x}, where x is the unknown length of the hypotenuse.  Solving for x:

x=\frac{78.4}{sin(23)}

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode before entering this in.  You will get a length of the hypotenuse as 200.649 feet, so choice A.
