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}

Question 9: Please help, what would be the length of the image of the segment GH?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>The length of the image of the segment GH would be 5 units.</em></u>

Explanation:

You can use the <em>center of dilation</em> as your origin of coordintes.

Thus, the <em>point H</em> would have coordinates (0,0) and the <em>point G</em> (-1,0).

A <em>dilation</em> multiplies the coordinates by the <em>scale factor</em>. Hence:

  • H = (0,0) → H' = 5 × (0,0) = (0,0)
  • G = (-1,0) → G] = 5 × (-1, 0) = (-5, 0)

Thus, the length of the image of segment GH would be the distance from 0 to -5 in a number line, which is 5.

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

If your question is set up like this \sqrt{6x^2-8}=-8x then your answer is No solution.

If your question is set up like this\sqrt{6x^2}-8=-8x then your answer is x=\frac{4(8-\sqrt{6}) }{29} or x = 0.765
