Addition and multiplication are commutative property so that mean no.
In this case, you have to do division.
Your answer is 6x = 72
x = 12
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
A: x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Neighbor: 2/5(x) </span>
<span>Remainder = x - 2/5(x) = 3/5(x) </span>
<span>Cousin = 4/9 * 3/5(x) = 4/15(x) </span>
<span>x - 2/5(x) - 4/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>x - 6/15(x) - 4/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>x - 10/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>(15x - 10x) = 225 </span>
<span>5x = 225 </span>
<span>x = 225/5 = 45 </span>
<span>Therefore, he made 45 rolls</span>
When an event is independent of the other, it means Event A does not influence Event B.
For example, if one was to find the probability of someone owning a car and what there neighbour eats, there is no correlation. In this situation, the events are independent.
