Answer: Russia earned 13 gold medals, 11 silver medals and 9 bronze medals.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gold medals that Russia earned.

Let y represent the number of silver medals that Russia earned.

Let z represent the number of bronze medals that Russia earned.

Russia earned a total of 33 medals. This means that

x + y + z = 33 - - - - - - - - - - - 1!

In the 2014 winter olympics in sochi russia earned 4 more gold medals than bronze. This means that

x = z + 4

The number of silver medals earned was 7 less than twice the number of bronze. This means that

y = 2z - 7

Substituting x = z + 4 and y = 2z - 7 into equation 1, it becomes

z + 4 + 2z - 7 + z = 33

4z - 3 = 33

4z = 33 + 3 = 36

z = 36/4 = 9

x = z + 4 = 9 + 4

x = 13

y = 2z - 7 = 2 × 9 - 7

y = 11

Lucy rolls 2 fair dice and adds the results from each.
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The probability is 7/36

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the probability that when we roll two fair dice, the sum of two numbers on both dies equal to 5.

Before we go on answering the question, we need to know the number of elements in our sample space. What this means is that we need to know the number of results we can have. The total number of results we can have is 6 * 6 = 36

Now, the next thing to know is how many of our results would yield a multiple of 5 each. Now let’s look at the attachment for the tabular representation we have.

Now, looking at our table, we can see that we have 7 circled results where we have a possibility of a multiple of 5.

The probability is thus the number of these additions divided by the total number of outputs= 7/36
