Answer:
1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
P( coin = heads) = number of heads / total = 1/2
P( cube = 5) = number of 5's / total =1/6
P( heads, 5) =1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12

Answer:
D. (-3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations have different coefficients for x and y, so will have one solution. The solutions offered are easily tested in either equation.
Using (x, y) = (-2, -3):
x = y -1 ⇒ -2 = -3 -1 . . . . False
Using (x, y) = (-3, -2):
x = y -1 ⇒ -3 = -2 -1 . . . .True
2x = 3y ⇒ 2(-3) = 3(-2) . . . . True
The solution is (-3, -2).
__
If you'd like to solve the set of equations, substitution for x works nicely.
2(y -1) = 3y
2y -2 = 3y . . eliminate parentheses
-2 = y . . . . . . subtract 2y
x = -2 -1 = -3
The solution is (x, y) = (-3, -2).
Answer:
9990 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential function with given values filled in can be solved for the unknown using logarithms.
__
Q(t) = 12 = 36e^(-0.00011t)
1/3 = e^(-0.00011t) . . . . . . divide by 36
ln(1/3) = -0.00011t . . . . . . take natural logs
t = ln(1/3)/(-0.00011) . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
t ≈ 9990 . . . years
