      Slope = Rise / Run
      Road grade is vertical increase ( Rise ) divided by the horizontal increase ( Run ).
      The boat ramp:
      Road Grade (B) = 6 ft / 36 ft = 1/6 = 0.167
      The road:
      Road Grade (R) = 12 % = 0.12
      0.167 > 0.12
      Answer: The boat ramp is steeper.

Kane rolls a dice and flips a coin at the same time. What is the probability he rolls a 2 or lower and the coin lands on heads?
lord [1]

Answer:

The probability he rolls a 2 or lower and the coin lands on heads is 16.66%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Kane rolls a dice and flips a coin at the same time, to determine what is the probability he rolls a 2 or lower and the coin lands on heads the following calculation must be performed:

Given = 6 sides = 2/6

Coin = 2 sides = 1/2

2/6 x 1/2 = X

0.333 x 0.5 = X

0.1666 = X

0.1666 x 100 = 16.66

Therefore, the probability he rolls a 2 or lower and the coin lands on heads is 16.66%.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

  $18500 at 6% and $28500 at 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 6%. Then x+10000 is the amount invested at 8%. The total income from the two investments is the sum of the products of the amount invested and the interest rate:

  x·6% +(x+10000)·8% = 3390

  0.14x + 800 = 3390 . . . . . . . . collect terms

  0.14x = 2590 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 800

  2590/0.14 = x = 18500 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Sue has invested $18500 at 6% and $28500 at 8%.
