Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of 5 to 5+3 is equivalent to the ratio of 15 to 15+x. This is because when you have a triangle inside of a triangle and both of them share two of the same sides and the third sides are parallel to each other, the side ratios of the triangles are always proportionate.

\frac{5}{5+3} =\frac{15}{15+x}   Starting equation

\frac{5}{8} =\frac{15}{15+x}   Simplify

5(15+x)=8*(15)   Cross multiply

75+5x=120   Distributive Property on left and simplify on right

5x=45   Isolate the variable

x=9   Divide both sides by 5 (Division Property of Equality)

A six sided die is rolled 4 times. find the probability that a 2 or 3 is rolled at least once. round your answer to two decimal
goblinko [34]

The probability that a 2 or 3 is rolled at least once is 0.14.

<h3>Probability of not rolling a 2 or 3 in a single die roll of two dice</h3>

when a six die is rolled once there is 11/12 probability of not rolling 2 or 3.

rolling a six sided die two times, p(2 or 3)' = 11/12

rolling a six sided die four times, p(2 or 3)'  = (11/12)² = 121/144

the probability that a 2 or 3 is rolled at least once is calculated as follows;

P = 1 - p(2 or 3)'

P = 1 - 121/144

P = 20/144

P = 0.14

Thus, the probability that a 2 or 3 is rolled at least once is 0.14.

What is the value of y circle the correct answer 62y = 434<br><br> 1.<br> Y=7<br><br> 2.<br> Y=5
MrRa [10]
When we solve for y, we want to isolate y by itself. To do so in this equation, we can divide both sides of the equation by 62...

y = 434/62 = 7

I have 6 thousands 12 tens 9 hundreds 10 ones and 3 tenths what number am i
mixer [17]

Here let us first write the value of each number:

6 thousands means 6*1000=6000.

9 hundreds means 9*100=900.

12 tens means 12*10 =120

10 ones means 10*1 =10

3 tenths means 3/10 =0.3

Now we just have to add all these values to get the final number.

adding 6000 + 900 +120 +10 +0.3 = 7030.3

So the final number is 7030.3
