6 0

Answer:

\frac{5}{36}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6^2=36 non-distinct sums that can be achieved when rolling two fair sided dice.

The smallest of these sums is 1+1=2 and the largest of these sums is 6+6=12. Within this range, there exists only one perfect cube, 2^3=8.

Count how many ways we can achieve a sum of 8 with two dice:

\begin{cases}2+6=8,\\6+2=8,\\3+5=8, \\5+3=8,\\4+4=8\end{cases}\\\\\implies \text{5 ways}

Thus the probability the total score (sum) will be a perfect cube when rolling two fair six-sided dice is equal to \boxed{5/36}

Which equation represents a linear function rule for the following set of ordered pairs?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

The equation that represents the linear function for the set of ordered pairs is: A. y = -3x + 2.

<h3>What is the Equation of a Linear Function?</h3>

Equation of a linear function, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, is expressed as y = mx + b.

Find the slope (m):

Slope (m) = change in y/change in x = (-7 -(-4)) / (3 - 2)

Slope (m) = -3/1 = -3

Find b by substituting m = -3 and (1, -1) = (x, y) into y = mx + b:

-1 = -3(1) + b

-1 = -3 + b

-1 + 3 = b

2 = b

b = 2

Substitute m = -3 and b = 2 into y = mx + b

y = -3(x) + 2

y = -3x + 2

Therefore, the equation that represents the linear function for the set of ordered pairs is: A. y = -3x + 2.

All of the rings of a ladder are parallel and the top rung is perpendicular to a side of the ladder. What conclusion can be reac
Ronch [10]

Perpendicular sides or lines meet at right angles. The conclusion that can be reached is that:

<em>1. all of the rings are perpendicular to that side.</em>

The statements in the question can be listed as:

  1. <em>Rings in the ladder are parallel</em>
  2. <em>Top ring is perpendicular to the side of the ladder</em>

<em />

From statements 1 and 2 above, we understand that;

<em>All other rings in the ladder are parallel to the side ring</em>

This means that the relationship between the top ring and the side of the ladder is the same as the relationship between other rings and the side of the ladder

i.e. the side rings are also perpendicular to the side of the ladder

Hence, the conclusion that can be reached is:

<em>1. all of the rings are perpendicular to that side.</em>

Mrs. Ishimitsu is installing a rubber bumper around the edge of her coffee table. The dimensions of the rectangular table are (2
ollegr [7]

Answer:

2x^2+8x-30 represents the total perimeter of the table, and if x = 3 the lentgh of entire rubber bumper is 12 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is defined as the sum of sides.

For a rectangle having dimension length 'L' and breadth 'B' Since, rectangle has two sides equal.

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length + breadth )

Here, given rectangle has dimension

Length = 2x^2-16 and breadth = -x^2+4x+1

Thus, perimeter of rectangle = 2(2x^2-16+(-x^2+4x+1))

                                              =2(2x^2-16-x^2+4x+1)

                                               =2(x^2+4x-15)

                                                =2x^2+8x-30

Thus, perimeter of rectangle is 2x^2+8x-30   ........(1)

Perimeter of rectangle , when x = 3,

Put x= 3 in (1) ,

2x^2+8x-30\Rightarrow 2(3)^2+8(3)-30 \Rightarrow 18+24-30=12

Thus, 2x^2+8x-30 represents the total perimeter of the table, and if x = 3 the lentgh of entire rubber bumper is 12 feet.
