Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

the number on the bottom of the fraction (denominator) is equal to the total number of possibilities (in this case there are 6 possibilities). for the number on top (the numerator) we are trying to work out the probability of rolling a 3. a 3 is only 1 of the 6 options (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) so the number on top is 1.

I hope this was helpful :-)

Find the least common multiple (LCM) of 8y^6+ 144y^5+ 640y^4 and 2y^4 + 40y^3 + 200y^2.

Answer:

LCM = $8y^{4}(y+ 10)^{2}(y + 8)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Making factors of $8y^{6}+ 144y^{5}+ 640y^{4}$

Taking $8y^{4}$ common:

$\Rightarrow 8y^{4} (y^{2}+ 18y+ 80)$

Using factorization method:

$\Rightarrow 8y^{4} (y^{2}+ 10y + 8y + 80)\\\Rightarrow 8y^{4} (y (y+ 10) + 8(y + 10))\\\Rightarrow 8y^{4} (y+ 10)(y + 8))\\\Rightarrow \underline{2y^{2}} \times 4y^{2} \underline{(y+ 10)}(y + 8)) ..... (1)$

Now, Making factors of $2y^{4} + 40y^{3} + 200y^{2}$

Taking $2y^{2}$ common:

$\Rightarrow 2y^{2} (y^{2}+ 20y+ 100)$

Using factorization method:

$\Rightarrow 2y^{2} (y^{2}+ 10y+ 10y+ 100)\\\Rightarrow 2y^{2} (y (y+ 10) + 10(y + 10))\\\Rightarrow \underline {2y^{2} (y+ 10)}(y + 10) ............ (2)$

The underlined parts show the Highest Common Factor(HCF).

i.e. HCF is $2y^{2} (y+ 10)$ .

We know the relation between LCM, HCF of the two numbers 'p' , 'q' and the numbers themselves as:

$HCF \times LCM = p \times q$

Using equations (1) and (2): $\Rightarrow 2y^{2} (y+ 10) \times LCM = 2y^{2} \times 4y^{2}(y+ 10)(y + 8) \times 2y^{2} (y+ 10)(y + 10)\\\Rightarrow LCM = 2y^{2} \times 4y^{2}(y+ 10)(y + 8) \times (y + 10)\\\Rightarrow LCM = 8y^{4}(y+ 10)^{2}(y + 8)$

Hence, LCM = $8y^{4}(y+ 10)^{2}(y + 8)$

Lorea is designing the top of a quilt which measures 2,160 square inches. Triangles will cover 432 square inches of the quilt, a

2160 - 180 - 432 = 612
Each parallelogram is 3 square inches
divide by 3
612/3 = 264 parallelograms to complete the quilt.

Sara's results probably do have a higher mean, if we take into account how William is way more willing to pay 20 dollars. Honestly, I think you got your chosen answers right! Just my opinion, as someone inexperienced.
