In a game of rock paper scissors, what are the chances that someone playing against a person playing only paper would win?

As for the answer, if you were to make a chart to show rock, paper, and scissors, you'd be able to see that there's a 2/3 chance of winning by choosing rock. With scissors, there's also a 2/3 chance to win. Now with paper, there's only a 1/3 chance to win. Knowing that the other person will only play paper, the best answers would be to choose either rock or scissors.

(there are, of course, flaws with this concept, because the opponent could be lying about playing only paper. More or less, it's a good design to show probability.)

Based on the work shown to the left, which of these values are possible solutions of the equation? Check all of the boxes that apply

A X=-6

B X=6

C X=-1/3

D X=1/3

E X=0

Answer:

A and D

Plisss help on my assesment
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The first one is equivalent [the 6x+48 = 2(3x+24)] and the second one is <u>NOT</u> equivalent [the 7x+21 ≠ 2(5x+3)]

Step-by-step explanation:

Just follow distributive property to solve these. You can ignore the first expression in both until you have to compare the answers.

1. 6x+48 and 2(3x+24)

2(3x+24) ---> 2(3x) + 2(24) ---> <u>6x + 48</u>

Bring in the first expression ~ <u>6x+48 and 6x+48 </u>

They are the same, so they are equivalent

2. 7x+21 and 2(5x+3)

2(5x+3) ---> 2(5x) + 2(3) ----> 10x + 6

Bring in the first expression ~ <u>7x+21 and 10x + 6</u>

They are NOT the same, so they are NOT equivalent
