Answer: 5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space when two 6- sided dice are rolled is given below:

(+) 1 2 3 4 5 6

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

2 3 4 5 6 7 8

3 4 5 6 7 8 9

4 5 6 7 8 9 10

5 6 7 8 9 10 11

6 7 8 9 10 11 12

The total sample space is 36.

Sum greater than 8 are : {9,10,11,12}

which are 10 in number:

Therefore : the probability that the sum of the two numbers on the dice will be greater than 8 will be :

number of the sum greater than 8 / Total sample space

That is ;

P(sum greater than 8) = 10/36

P(sum greater than 8) = 5/18

Yeah cuz u could +1 to each side of the second equation to get rid of both the -1’s and that is equivalent to the first equation :)

Plsss hellpppp 14 and 15 plsssssss

Answer:

14). 2nd quadrant

15). 1st quadrant

Step-by-step explanation:

14).Coordinates of a point → J(-8, -12)

Coordinates of the new point J' after reflection of x-axis will follow the rule,

(x, y) → (x, -y)

Coordinates of J' → (-8, 12)

Therefore, point J' will lie in 2nd quadrant.

15). Coordinates of a point → W(-6, 7)

Rule for the rotation by 90°clockwise about the origin,

(x, y) → (y, -x)

Coordinates of point W → (-6, 7)

Following this rule,

W(-6, 7) → W'(7, 6)

Therefore, point W' will lie in the first quadrant.

Answer:

$Area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\ first\ box=384\ inches^2\\Area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\ second\ box=486\ inches^2\\Area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\ first\ box=600\ inches^2\\Total\ Area\ of\ material\ required=1470\ inches^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$We\ are\ given:\\Diameter\ of\ the\ first\ volleyball=8\ inches \\Diameter\ of\ the\ second\ volleyball=9\ inches\\Diameter\ of\ the\ third\ volleyball= 10\ inches.\\Hence,\\We\ know\ that,\\If\ the\ side\ of\ the\ cube\ box\ is\ s, it's\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ =No.\ of\\ faces\ in\ a\ regular\ polyhedron\ *Area\ of\ each\ face\ of\ the\ polyhedron=6*s^2=6s^2\\Hence,\\Lets\ apply\ this\ equation\ in\ finding\ the\ area\ of\ material\ required\ for\ the\\ three\ cases.\\$

$As\ the\ volleyball\ should\ wholly\ fit\ into\ the\ box,\ the\ diameter\ of\ the\\ volleyballs\ would\ be\ the\ side\ of\ the\ cube\ box.\\Hence,\\For\ the\ first\ volleyball,\\Diameter\ of\ the\ first\ volleyball=8\ inches\\Hence,\\Side\ of\ the\ cubical\ box\ for\ the\ first\ volleyball=8\ inches.\\Hence,\\The\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ of\ the\ first\ box=6s^2=6*8*8=384\ inches^2$

$For\ the\ second\ volleyball,\\Diameter\ of\ the\ second\ volleyball=9\ inches\\Hence,\\Side\ of\ the\ cubical\ box\ for\ the\ second\ volleyball=9\ inches.\\Hence,\\The\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ of\ the\ second\ box=6s^2=6*9*9=486\ inches^2$

$For\ the\ third\ volleyball,\\Diameter\ of\ the\ third\ volleyball=8\ inches\\Hence,\\Side\ of\ the\ cubical\ box\ for\ the\ third\ volleyball=10\ inches.\\Hence,\\The\ Total\ Surface\ Area\ of\ the\ third\ box=6s^2=6*10*10=600\ inches^2$

$Hence,\\If\ you\ are\ asked\ the\ Total\ Area\ to\ make\ all\ the\ boxes,\\ you\ just\ add\ them\ together.\\Hence,\\Total\ Area\ of\ Material\ required\ to\ make\ the\ three\ boxes=384+486+600=1470\ inches^2$
