A pair of dice is rolled. Two dice are rolled

Possible outcomes are

(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)

(2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4,1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)

So total of 36 outcomes

Question says 'the probability of rolling a sum not less than 3'

we look at the pair that has sum greater than or equal to 3

There is only one pair (1,1) whose sum is 1+1 =2

So we ignore (1,1) pair

Remaining 35 pairs have sum greater than 3

the probability of rolling  = (number of times event occurs)  divide by total number of outcomes

the probability ( rolling a sum not less than 3) = \frac{35}{36}

What is the area of this trapezoid A 50 in² B 108 in² C 126 in² D 192 in²​
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

C 126 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is given by

A = 1/2 (b1+b2) h

b1 is the bottom base length = 12 inches

b2 is the top base length = (2+12+2) = 16 inches

h = height = 9 inches

A = 1/2 (12+16) *9

A = 1/2(28)(9)

A =126 in^2

faust18 [17]

Answer:

25º

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that x + 65º is a right angle, so it is equal to 90º. Therefore, x = 90º - 65º = 25º.

Over the past 6 days you’ve spent $8, $14, $12, $11, $5 and $13 dollars on food . On average, how much per day are you spending
Anni [7]

Answer:

The answer is A)$10.50

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the average amount, you have to add the total amount of money spent and divide it by the total number of times you spent money on food. The total sum of money spent was $63. If you divide that by how many times you ate (6 times) you'll get the dividend/answer of 10.5.

Hope this helps :)
