Answer:

\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Two distinct number cubes, one red and one blue, are rolled together

To find: probability that the outcome of the roll is an even sum or a sum that is a multiple of 3

Solution:

If two dices are rolled together, possible outcomes are as follows:

(1,1) (1,2)(1,3)(1,4)(1,5)(1,6)

(2,1)(2,2)(2,3)(2,4)(2,5)(2,6)

(3,1)(3,2)(3,3)(3,4)(3,5)(3,6)

(4,1)(4,2)(4,3)(4,4)(4,5)(4,6)

(5,1)(5,2)(5,3)(5,4)(5,5)(5,6)

(6,1)(6,2)(6,3)(6,4)(6,5)(6,6)

So, total number of outcomes = 36

In order to find probability that the outcome of the roll is an even sum or a sum that is a multiple of 3, favourable outcomes are

(1,1) (1,2)(1,3)(1,5)

(2,1)(2,2)(2,4)(2,6)

(3,1)(3,3)(3,5)(3,6)

(4,2)(4,4)(4,5)(4,6)

(5,1)(5,3)(5,4)(5,5)

(6,2)(6,3)(6,4)(6,6)

Number of favourable outcomes = 24

Probability that the outcome of the roll is an even sum or a sum that is a multiple of 3 = Number of favourable outcomes/Total Number of outcomes = \frac{24}{36} =\frac{2}{3}

hram777 [196]
There are multiple ways in which Anita can divide the sheet of paper for her calendar. First she can have it halved first then, divided by 6 or she can have it divided by 4 and divided each quarter by 3. Either way, each month would take up 1/12 of the total area of the paper.

What is the correct value of z?<br> A. Z=12<br> B. Z=13<br> C. Z=10<br> D. Z=11
inna [77]
<h3>Answer:  A) z = 12</h3>

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

Work Shown:

RS = RT

2z-15 = 9

2z = 9+15

2z = 24

z = 24/2

z = 12

The reason why RS is equal to RT in the first equation is because we have an isosceles triangle. Recall that any isosceles triangle has exactly two sides the same length, and the opposite base angles are congruent to one another. The congruent angles are indicated with the single arcs.

In short: the base angles S and T are congruent, so the opposite sides RS and RT are the same length. This leads to RS = RT.
