1) The outcomes for rolling two dice, the sample space, is as follows:
(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6)
(2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6)
(3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6)
(4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6)
(5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6)
(6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)
There are 36 outcomes in the sample space.
2) The ways to roll an odd sum when rolling two dice are:
(1, 2), (1, 4), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 2), (3, 4), (3, 6), (4, 1), (4, 3), (4, 5), (5, 2), (5, 4), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 3), (6, 5). There are 18 outcomes in this event.
3) The probability of rolling an odd sum is 18/36 = 1/2 = 0.5
Answer:
2x + 6 = -18
x + 1 = -11
3x = -36
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the solution! Then you can create your own equations
2x+9=-15
2x=-24
x=-12
Thus u need solutions with:
x = -12
Knowing the equation of a line as:
y = mx + b
we can can start by making y = -12 (our solution)
mx + b = -12
Now we can pick a value for m and b by adding and miltiplying on both sides
We do this to keep both sides equal.
if we make m = 2 and b = 3:
2x + mb = -12*m + 2b
2x + 6 = -24 + 6
2x + 6 = -18
Solving this we also get x = -12, as we expect.
An alternative way to think about it is to imagine that we start with a simple equation and make it more complex. We have our solution:
x = -12 => lets add a b value!
x + b = -12 + b => Lets add a slope (m)
xm + bm = -12m + bm
Giving values for this can give you multiple equation of the same solution.
General Formula:
m(x+b) = m(y+b)
mx + bm = my + bm
