Answer:

<h2>2/3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on probability

Given that two dice are expected to give an outcome of sum greater than 8

But in the problem statement the first die is already settled since it is showing 6 already.

Now for the second die, the possible outcomes that will add up with the first die to produce a figure greater than 8 are (3,4,5,6)  

The probability of obtaining either of these numbers is 4/6= 2/3

<em>Having the first die settled, this means that the probability of obtaining a sum of 8 is 2/3</em>

What is the surface area of a cube whose edges are 11 inches long?
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Surface area is the total area of the surface. A cube has 6 surface, and each surface is the same. Each surface is a 11 by 11 square. Therefore there will be 6 11in. x 11in. surfaces. The math would be 11x11x6 =726.

Mike bought five items for lunch that cost a total of $4.55. Hot dogs cost $1.10 each and cookies cost $0.75 each. Which of thes
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

1.1h+0.75c=4.55---------------1

h+c=5--------------2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

total lunch items= 5

let hot dogs be h

and cookies be c

cost of hot dogs = $1.10

cost of cookies = $0.75

total cost = $4.55

Step two:

The linear model for the total cost is given as

4.55=1.1h+0.75c---------------1

and the model for the number of items is

h+c=5--------------2

The systems of the equation for the situation is

1.1h+0.75c=4.55---------------1

h+c=5--------------2
