1/2x + 16 = 36
1/2x = 36 - 16
1/2x = 20
x = 20 * 2
x = 40 <== he started with 40

If a coin is tossed and a number cube is rolled what is the probability of getting heads and the number cube shows 3?

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probability of getting heads is 1/2 and the probability of the number cube getting three is 1/6, we multiply.

For every coin flip, there is a 1/6 chance of getting a three. But since there is another condition, we have to multiply. Multiplying both fractions make 1/12.
