Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

P( coin = heads) = number of heads / total = 1/2

P( cube = 5) = number of 5's / total =1/6

P( heads, 5) =1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12

The coin toss and the number cube roll are independent events.

This is because the result of the coin toss does

not affect the result of the number cube roll.

To find the probability of two independent events, we first find the probability of each event, then we multiply the probabilities.

Since there is only one way to get heads when tossing a coin and there are 2 possible outcomes, tossing a heads or tails, the probability of getting heads is 1/2.

Since there is only one way to roll 5 on a number cube, there

is 1 favorable outcome but six possible outcomes.

So the probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6.

Now multiply.

So we have 1/2 · 1/6 which is 1/12.

The two triangles are similar, What is the length of DE?
horsena [70]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

This is easy. All you need to do is set up a <u><em>proportional relationship</em></u>.

A proportional relationship uses variables to show similarities, in this case, in triangles.

\frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{6.3}\\\\3x = 12.6\\\\x = 4.2

<u><em>x</em></u> represents the missing side.
