Answer:

Result:

  • The value of x = 12
  • The value of y = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The parallelogram DEFG

DE = 6x-12

FG = 2x+36

EF = 4y

DG = 6y-42

We know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.  

As DE and FG are opposite sides, so

DE = FG

substituting DE = 6x-12 and FG = 2x+36 in the equation

6x-12 = 2x+36

6x-2x = 36+12

simplifying

4x = 48

dividing both sides by 4

4x/4 = 48/4

x = 12

Therefore,

The value of x = 12

Also, EF and DG are opposite sides, so

EF = DG

substituting EF = 4y and DG = 6y-42 in the equation

4y = 6y-42

switching sides

6y-42 = 4y

6y-4y = 42

2y = 42

dividing both sides by 2

2y/2 = 42/2

y = 21

Therefore,

The value of y = 21

Result:

  • The value of x = 12
  • The value of y = 21

Ben rolls two number cubes. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers he rolls is less than 6
kotegsom [21]
The numbered cubes might be referring the dice. We know that there are 36 ways of dice will occur.
Take the unique list of the following pair for which the sum is less than 6, and these are
(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (3,1) (3,2) (4,1)
Therefore there are 10 possible ways we could get.
In probability, it is a ratio of the successful outcomes over the total number of possible outcomes.
P = 10/36 = 5/18

Divide. Write your answer as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form.<br><br> 10 • 3 3/4
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

37 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

before you multiply you fractions you would have to change the mixed number into a improper fraction and then multiply your fractions together. once that is dont you would multiply they numerator straight across and multiply the denominator straight across. once that is done your answer should come out as 150/4 but that is a improper fraction and you have to change it into a mixed number which would be 37 2/4 but that can be simplified by 2 and once you simplify it your final answer would come out to be 37 1/2.
