Length = width +6
L * (L - 6) = 135
L^2 - 6L = 135
L^2 - 6L -135 = 0
Length = 15
Width = 9
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
-x + 6 = 0.5x
1.5x = 6
x = 4
Each die has six numbers, the total number of possible combinations is 6 * 6 = 36
The combinations in which you can get a sum of 5 are: 1 &4, 2 & 3, 4 &1, 3 &2
There are 4 different combinations of getting a sum of 5.
The probability would be 4/36, which reduces to 1/9
