Answer:

The probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is \frac{1}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If you roll two fair dice repeatedly.

To find : What is the probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 ?

Solution :

When two dice are rolled the 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 number of outcomes = 36

Favorable outcome get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is (1,3) ,(2,2) and (3,1) = 3

The probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is

P=\frac{3}{36}

P=\frac{1}{12}

Therefore, The probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is \frac{1}{12}

$35,125 loan, a feat which took ten years of quarterly payments. The loan had an interest rate of 7.44%, compounded quarterly. I
Darya [45]
First find the amount of each payment:
35,125 = P(\frac{(1+i)^{40} -1}{i (1+i)^{40}}) , i = \frac{.0744}{4}  \\  \\ P = 1252.70

The total cost will be 40 payments plus service charges.
40*1252.70 + 5180.70 = 55,288.90

The percentage is the service charge divided by total cost:
X = \frac{5180.70}{ 55,288.90} = .0937 = 9.37\%

Help help help math please last one be honest
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

122 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The two intersecting lines are parallel for this problem, which means that the angle next to angle3 is the same degree measure as the one that is 58 degrees.

Also, remember that two angles next to each other on a straight line are supplementary, meaning that they add to 180 degrees.

When keeping these two things in mind, you can solve like this:

180 = angle3 + 58

180 - 58 = angle3

angle3 = 122

122 degrees
