You have to consider the sample space. In this example the sample space
is {1,2,3,4,5,6}
A simple event can be defined as a SINGLE outcome : Example getting a 3 OR 5 OR any other number from the sample space.
Now if you roll 1 dice & you want to get an even number (2,4,6) then you have chosen from the sample space 3 outcome & this is a compound event
Equally if you roll 2 dice and want to get "one" and/or "three" this is a compound event since you have chosen 2 outcome from the sample space.
Mind you, if you want 5 And 5 when rolling two dice it's a simple event because you have chosen ONE outcome from the sample space.
Hope this will help you to understand this kind of problem
Let x be the amount of weeks.
60 + 7x = 120
60 - 60 + 7x = 120 - 60
7/7x = 60/7
x = 8.571428571
Answer: the distance from one corner of the field to the other corner is 136 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from one corner to the other corner is the diagonal and it
divides the field into two equal right angle triangles. The diagonal represents the hypotenuse of each right angle triangle. The length and width of the rectangle represents the adjacent and opposite sides of the right angle triangle. To determine the length of the diagonal, d, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
Therefore
d² = 110² + 80²
d² = 12100 + 6400 = 18500
d = √18500
d = 136 meters
