Answer:

The answer is 22

The sum of two numbers is 48:

x + y = 48 ⇒ x = 48 - y

One third of one number is 5 greater than one sixth of another number:

1/3x =5 + 1/6 y

1/3(48 - y) = 5 + 1/6y

1/3 * 48 - 1/3 * y = 5 + 1/6 y

16 - 1/3y = 5 + 1/6y

16 - 5 = 1/6y + 1/3y

11 = 1/6y + 2/6y

11 = 3/6y

y = 11 * 6 / 3

y = 22

x = 48 - y

x = 48 - 22

x = 26

The smallest number is 22.

given the following information about two loaded die, what is the p(5) on die 2? die 1p(1) = 0.5 p(4) = 0.25 p(6) = 0.25 die 2p(

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Die 1 is loaded so that only 1, 4, and 6 are possible.

P(1) + P(4) + P(6) = 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 1

Similarly, Die 2 is loaded so that only 2, 3, and 5 are possible.

P(2) + P(3) + P(5) = 1

0.3 + 0.25 + P(5) = 1

P(5) = 0.45
