When two dice are rolled, then 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)

Total possible outcomes = 36

In that, we count the ordered pairs that give us sum 5

(1,4) (2,3) (3,2) and (4,1) = 4 outcomes

Probability = (number of times the event occurs)/ (total number of outcomes)

P( sum of 5) = \frac{4}{36} = \frac{1}{9}

A right triangle has legs of length 4x and 20x. What is an expression for the hypotenuse of the right triangle
kherson [118]

Answer:

4x\sqrt{26}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Leg_1=4x

Leg_2=20x

According to the Pythagoras theorem,

(hypotenuse)^2=(Leg_1)^2+(leg_2)^2

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get

(hypotenuse)^2=(4x)^2+(20x)^2

(hypotenuse)^2=16x^2+400x^2

(hypotenuse)^2=416x^2

Taking square root on both sides.

hypotenuse=\sqrt{416x^2}

hypotenuse=4x\sqrt{26}

Hence, the expression of the hypotenuse is 4x\sqrt{26}.
