You can get a 5 by rolling :
1 and 4
2 and 3
3 and 2
4 and 1

You can get a 9 by rolling :
3 and 6
4 and 5
5 and 4
6 and 3

There are 36 possible outcomes, hence your probability is $\frac{4\cdot2}{36}=\boxed{\frac29}$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability we use the mutually exclusive probability formula P(A) + P(B). The probability of getting a sum of 5 is

1 /9

and the probability of getting a sum of 9 is

1 /9

. The sum is

2 /9

What is the value is of x? A)0 B)25 C)4 D)7

iogann1982 [59]

We know that these two angles are equal to each other (There is the "congruent" sign) so we can set them equal to each other and solve for x

3x - 17 = 25 - 3x

(3x + 3x) - 17 = 25 + (-3x + 3x)

6x + (- 17 + 17) = 25 + 17

6x/6 = 42/6

x = 7

Hope this helped!

A can of crushed tomatoes holds 40 fluid ounces. How can a label designer name the same volume using metric units? Complete the

inn [45]

The metric unit of a quantity is simply the unit of measurement of the quantity

The volumes of the crashed tomato cans are 1184 milliliters and 1.184 liters

The volume of the crushed tomato can is given as:

$\mathbf{Volume = 40oz}$

From the question, we have the following conversion ratio

$\mathbf{1oz \approx 29.6mL}$

So, the volume in milliliters becomes

$\mathbf{Volume = 40 \times 29.6mL}$

Multiply

$\mathbf{Volume = 1184mL}$

To convert the unit to liters, we simply divide the volume by 1000.

So, we have:

$\mathbf{Volume = 1184L \div 1000}$

$\mathbf{Volume = 1.184L}$

Hence, the equivalent volumes are 1184 milliliters and 1.184 liters
