Answer:
k = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the given value of x in the equation, and solve the resulting equation for k.
2(5 -3) +k(1 +2·5) = k - 5 - 1
2(2) +k(11) = k -6 . . . . simplify a bit
10k = -10 . . . . . . . . . . add -4-k to both sides
k = -1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10
The value of k is -1.

<em>Check</em>
Use k = -1 in the original equation and solve for x.
2(x -3) -(1 +2x) = -1 -x -1
2x -6 -1 -2x = -x -2 . . . . eliminate parentheses
x = 7 -2 = 5 . . . . . . add x+7; answer checks OK
(-y+5x3)+(7.2y-9)=6.2y+n
(-y+15)+(7.2y-9)=6.2y+n
since you're adding the two parentheses, you don't need to have them there
-y+15+7.2y-9=6.2y+n
7.2y-y +15-9 =6.2y+n
6.2y + 6 =6.2y+n
6.2y - 6.2y -n = -6
-n=-6
n=6
The events are independent. By definition, it means that knowledge about one event does not help you predict the second, and this is the case: even if you knew that you rolled an even number on the first cube, would you be more or less confident about rolling a six on the second? No.
An example in which two events about rolling cubes are dependent could be something like:
Event A: You roll the first cube
Event B: The second cube returns a higher number than the first one.
In this case, knowledge on event A does change you view on event B (and vice versa): if you know that you rolled a 6 on the first cube you don't want to bet on event B, while if you know that you rolled a 1 on the first cube, you're certain that event B will happen.
Conversely, if you know that event B has happened, you are more likely to think that the first cube rolled a small number, and vice versa.

The first 0 before the decimal point is not significant since it is used for cosmetic purpose
The 0 after the decimal is not significant as the 0 is used to locate the decimal point
The 4 is the first nonzero integer and it counts as a significant figure
Therefore, 0.04 will be your answer rounded to 1 s.f
