Answer:

  14 and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the first number, then 36-x is the second. We are told that ...

  2x -(36-x) = 6 . . . . twice the first less the second is 6

  3x = 42 . . . . . . . . . add 36

  x = 14

  (36 -x) = 22

The numbers are 14 and 22.

Find the odds for and the odds against the event rolling a fair die and getting a 4, a 2, or a 1.
HACTEHA [7]

Answer: Both in favor and against: 3/6 OR 1/2 OR 50%.

Step-by-step explanation: Both in favor and against: 3/6 OR 1/2 OR 50%.

The probability of rolling one die and getting any digit is \frac{1}{6}. That is because the desired outcome is only 1 digit out of the 6 total digits on each of the six sides.

That means the probability of rolling either a 1, a 2, or a 4 <em>if you are looking for any of those numbers specifically, </em>is \frac{1}{6}. But! You are looking to roll a 1, a 2, or a 4, without any preference among those three. Therefore, you are going to add the desired outcomes.

\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6}  + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 = 50%

Above, are added the probability of rolling a 1 PLUS the probability of rolling a 2 PLUS the probability of rolling a 4, yielding a 50% probability.

Think about it. There are six total digits on a die. You are okay with rolling three of those. Three is half of six. Therefore, the probability of rolling the number you'd like is one-half, fifty-percent.

Likewise, since the probability of all complement events happening is 1 (or 100%), The odds against rolling either 1, 2, or 4 is also fifty-percent. 100% (which is rolling <em>any </em>number on a die) MINUS 50% (which is rolling a 1, a 2, or a 4 with no preference) EQUALS TO 50% (which is rolling a 3, a 5, or a 6).

Alchen [17]

Answer:

it is linear

Step-by-step explanation:

now this is a case of a an object falling under gravity so gravity is constant which means that the velocity is increased at a constant rate and therefore the graph is going to be linear

that is a straight line graph I hope you get the point

the velocity is going to be increasing constantly with time

Answer:

Tallahassee's Range: 6

Key West's Range: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate range, you'd subtract the lowest value from the highest value

Tallahassee:

Highest Value: 90

Lowest Value: 84

Range: 90 - 84 = 6

Key West:

Highest Value: 87

Lowest Value: 83

Range: 87 - 83 = 4

Mr. Williams is driving on a highway at an average speed of 50 miles per hour. His destination is 100 miles away. The
svetlana [45]

Answer:

t = -d/50 + 2

0.5 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

d = 50 - 100t

The inverse function:

A.) solving for t

d = 100 - 50t

d - 100 = - 50t

Divide both sides by - 50

d/-50 - (100/-50) = - 50t/-50

-d/50 - (-2) = t

t = -d/50 + 2

B) using the inverse function:

t = -d/50 + 2

Miles driven (d) = 75, find time (t)

t = - 75/50 + 2

t = - 1.5 + 2

t = 0.5

t is in hours, therefore time left to travel is 0.5 hours or 30 minutes
