Let us assume that the cubes are numbered from 1 to 6 in their six faces.



When these two cubes are rolled, the possible values could be,



(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)



Total possibilities are 36.



Now the sum of the numbers are either 4 or 10. Those numbers are



(1,3) (2,2) (3,1) -> this sums to 6



(4,6) (5,5) (6,4) -> this sums to 8



Total possibilities of getting sum 4 or 10 is 6.



So, the possibility of getting sum of or from a pair of rolled cubes is



6/36 = 1/6

What figure of speech uses repetition?
Tems11 [23]

There are many figures of speech that use repetition:

Rhyme - Repeating sounds at the end of words.

Alliteration - Uses repetition of a specific consonant sound at the beginning of words or syllables.

And many more! But these are basic ones that you might be referring to.

For the following paragraph, what best describes the writer's bias?
kkurt [141]
The correct answer is - <span>The writer prefers ROXXOR to the other bands that played.
Bias means that he loves something more than something else, and that he cannot be objective when it comes to that thing he loves. It is clear here that the author thinks the other bands were amateurs, but when it comes to ROXXOR, they were great in his own personal opinion, which is slightly biased.

What line is not an example of internal rhyme
WARRIOR [948]

The correct answer is "and traded them to Lou"

Explanation:

Internal rhyme implies two or more words in a line have similar sounds; this includes vowel or consonant sounds. From the options, options 1, 2, and 4 are examples of internal rhyme. For example, in the first option "seed" and "feed" have the same ending sound. This does not occur in the option "and traded them to Lou" because in this short line there are not repeating sounds, and therefore this not an example of internal rhyme.
