Answer: The events are independent

a) p = 1/36 b) p = 5/216

Step-by-step explanation: both events are independent because the fact that the first die shows it sample space {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} does not stop the second die from showing it own sample space too which is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

The sample space of first die = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

The sample space of second die = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

The sample space of 2 dice rolled at once is seen as attachment to this answer, find attachment below.

Probability that an event will occur = number of time the event will occur / total number of possible outcome of the event

a)

Probability that first die will show 3 = number of times 3 shows up in the event / total number of outcome of the die = P (3)

P (3) = 1/6

Probability that 2 dice sum up to give 7 = 6/ 36 = 1/6 ( from the sample space for 2 dice attached, it is seen that the sum of 7 comes out 6 times and the total sample space is 36)

P (first die show 3) = 1/6

P ( 2 dice sum to 7) = 1/6

P ( first die show 3) and P ( 2 dice sum to 7) = 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36.

b)

Probability of the first die showing 4 = P(4) = 1/6

Probability of 2 die sum up to give 8 = 5/36

P ( first die show 8) and P ( 2 die sum up to give 8) = 1/6 * 5/36 = 5/216

A scale on a map shows that 2 inches equals 25 miles how many inches on the map represents 60 miles?? I NEED HELP ASAP
irakobra [83]

Answer:

60 miles is equal to 4.8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer to this question, we need divide 60 by 25 to find out how much to multiply 2 by so its equal.

60/25=2.4

2*2.4=4.8

60 miles is equal to 4.8 inches.

Hope this helps!

Which of ghe following is equivalent to (x+4)(3x^2+2x)?
Alexxandr [17]

The given expression is

(x+4)(3x^2 +2x)

And in the second factor, x is common. So on taking x out, we will get

(x+4)(x)(3x+2) = x(x+4)(3x+2)

We can expand it by distributing , that is

(x+4)(3x^2 +2x) = x(3x^2 +2x) +4 (3x^2 +2x)

= 3x^3 +2x^2 + 12x^2 +8x

Combining like terms,

= 3x^3 +14x^2 +8x

And that's the expanded form ., and the given expression can also be written in that way .
