Answer:

27/35 points

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting one double;

P(getting one double) = 5/36

Probability of getting two doubles is;

P(getting two doubles) = 1/36

Probability of getting no doubles is;

P(getting no doubles) = 1/36

For us to find the Number of points that the player should lose for not rolling doubles, we have;

(12/36) + (5(3 - x)/36) - (5x/6) = 0

(12/36) + (15 - 5x)/36 - 5x/6 = 0

Multiply through by 36 to get;

12 + 15 - 5x - 30x = 0

35x = 27

x = 27/35

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

215 cm³

8.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

density = 10.2 g/cm³

mass = 2.193 kg = 2193g

a. Volume = mass / density

=2193 / 10.2

= 215 cm³

b. given that base area = 25cm²

volume = base area x thickness

thickness = volume / base area

= 215 / 25

= 8.6 cm

For each day enter the number of hours worked. Use the format shown in Model 1 and answer in terms of a reduced fraction.

It is often easiest to use "military time". That is, add 12 to all the afternoon numbers and do the subtraction in the usual way. Of course, 1 hour = 60 minutes, so 10 minutes = 10/60 hour = 1/6 hour.

Mon: 15:10 -8:00 = 7:10 = 7 1/6

Tue: 15:25 -8:05 = 7:20 = 7 1/3

Wed: 14:30 -8:00 = 6:30 = 6 1/2

Thur: 14:45 -7:55 = 7:(-10) = 6:50 = 6 5/6

Fri: 15:38 -7:58 = 8:(-20) = 7:40 = 7 2/3

_____
Some calculators have nice features for working with degrees, minutes, and seconds. In this context, degrees and hours are the same thing. That is, the base-60 arithmetic is the same whether you consider the numbers to be hours or degrees. Similarly, some calculators convert nicely between decimal fractions and mixed numbers. In short, a suitable calculator will almost do this math for you. (You just need to add 12 to all the numbers in the column on the right.)
