Answer:

\dfrac{5}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

When two dice are rolled, the sample space is

\begin{array}{cccccc}(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)\end{array}

In total, 36 outcomes

First, find the probability that the sum is 10 or greater:

All favorable outcomes

10: (4,6),\ (5,5),\ (6,4)

11: (5,6),\ (6,5)

12: (6,6)

In total, 6 outcomes.

The probability that the sum is 10 or greater is

P(A)=\dfrac{6}{36}=\dfrac{1}{6}

Use the complement rule to find that the probability that the sum of the dice is less than 10:

P(A^C)=1-P(A)=1-\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{5}{6}

The first AMC 8 was given in 1985 and it has been given annually since that time. Samantha turned 12 years old the year that she
Lorico [155]
I would start like this: which year was the seventh AMC 8??

the first was in 1985
The second: 1986
3: 1987
4: 1988
5: 1989
6: 1990
7: 1991

so seventh AMC 8 took place in 1991.
she was then 12, so we can subtract this age from 1991:

1991-12=1979

so she was born in 1979!

This year, when Latifa and Jameel add their ages, the sum is 29. Latifa’s age is 10 less than twice Jameel’s age. The system of
aksik [14]

Answer:

Jameel is 13 and Laitfa is 13 x 2 - 10 = 16

16 + 13 = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has already been given to us, so we just have to solve it.

According to the question,

L + J = 29

L = 2J - 10

  L

2J - 10  +  J = 29

add 10 both sides

2J + J = 29 + 10 = 39

3J = 39

J = 39/3 = 13

Done!
