Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the probability is (number of successful outcomes) over (total number of possible outcomes). A number cube has six sides, so the probability of rolling a 2 or a 6 out of all possible rolls is 2/6, or 1/3.

What’s the x and y intercepts of this equation: -3x-7y=84

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The X and Y intercepts to the equation -3x - 7y = 84 is

x-intercept (s): (−28,0)

y-intercept (s): (0,−12)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-intercept(s), substitute in 0 for y and solve for x

−3x−7⋅0=84

Solve the equation.

x=−28

x-intercept(s) in point form.

x-intercept (s): (−28,0)

To find the y-intercept(s), substitute in 0 for x and solve for y .

−3⋅0−7y=84

Solve the equation.

y=−12

y-intercept(s) in point form.

y-intercept (s): (0,−12)

Hope this helps.

How do I graph y=-6/5x

kkurt [141]

-6/5 is the slope. you start at point (0,0) and then move down 6 units and to the right 5 units and then create one point. from that point, go down 6 units and to the right 5 units and repeat. when you reach the bottom of the graph stop. go back to (0,0) and then move up 6 units and to the left 5 units. connect the points with a ruler and add arrows to each side. label your line with "y=-6/5x" on the line

X and Y are independent random variables. X is normally distributed with mean 1 and variance 1. Y is normally distributed with m

g100num [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of variance:

Total Variance = sum (i=1, N) {c^2,variance^2}

= c1^2*variance1^2 + c2^2*variance2^2 + .....

Variance of X = 1

Variance of Y = 5

Variance of Y - 2X = (1^2)*(5) - (2^2)**(1)

= 5 - 4 = 1

Write an equation to represent the N'th term of the sequence (2,-1.-4,-7,...)

mr_godi [17]

Answer: a(n) = 5 - 3n

the sequence has:

a1 = 2

a2 = -1

a3 = -7

.........

we can see that: a2 - a1 = a3 - a2 = -3

=> the sequence is a arithmetic sequence

=> the distance between the numbers is d = -3

because this sequence is a arithmetic sequence

=> a(n) = a1 + (n - 1)d = 2 + (n - 1).(-3) = 5 - 3n

pls help will give brainliest Rena used the steps below to evaluate the expression (StartFraction (x Superscript negative 3 Base

kaheart [24]

Answer:

First "order of operations" mistake: step 2

First arithmetic mistake: step 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we understand Rena's work, she wants to simplify ...

$\left(\dfrac{x^{-3}y^{-2}}{2x^4y^{-4}}\right)^{-3}$

for x = -1 and y = 2.

Her work seems to be ...

Step 1

$\text{Substitute $x=-1$ and $y=2$ into the expression}\\\\\left(\dfrac{(-1)^{-3}2^{-2}}{2(-1)^42^{-4}}\right)^{-3}\qquad\text{no error}$

Step 2

$\text{Simplify the parentheses}\\\\\left(\dfrac{2^4}{2(-1)^4(-1)^32^2}\right)^{-3}=\left(\dfrac{2^2}{2(-1)^7}\right)^{-3}\qquad\text{order of operations error}$

Step 3

$\text{Evaluate the power to a power}\\\\\dfrac{2^{-6}}{2^{-3}(-1)^{21}}\qquad\text{no error}$

Step 4

$\text{Use reciprocals and find the value}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2^32^6(-1)^{21}}=\dfrac{1}{8\cdot 64\cdot (-1)}=\dfrac{-1}{512}\qquad\text{error: $2^3$ is used instead of $2^{-3}$}$

_____

So, the first arithmetic error is in Step 4. However, the order of operations requires exponents be evaluated first. Doing that makes step 2 look like ...

$\left(\dfrac{-\dfrac{1}{4}}{2(1)\dfrac{1}{16}}\right)^{-3}=(-2)^{-3}\qquad\text{proper Step 2}$

We expect your answer is supposed to be Step 4.
