Question:
Morgan is playing a board game that requires three standard dice to be thrown at one time. Each die has six sides, with one of the numbers 1 through 6 on each side. She has one throw of the dice left, and she needs a 17 to win the game. What is the probability that Morgan wins the game (order matters)?
Answer:
1/72
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Morgan can roll a 17 in 3 different ways. The first way is if the first die comes up 5, the second die comes up 6, and the third die comes up 6. The second way is if the first die comes up 6, the second die comes up 5, and the third die comes up 6. The third way is if the first die comes up 6, the second die comes up 6, and the third die comes up 5. For each way, the probability of it occurring is 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/216. Therefore, since there are 3 different ways to roll a 17, the probability that Morgan rolls a 17 and wins the game is 1/216 + 1/216 + 1/216 = 3/216 = 1/72</em>

Answer:
First number: -39
Second number: -37
Step-by-step explanation:
An odd number can be written as 
where n is a whole number.
Let's call our first number 2n+1.
Our second, consecutive number will be 2 more than our first number, since it has to be odd. All numbers go: odd -> even -> odd -> even. If we have an odd number, and add 2, we'll get the next odd number.
First number: 2n+1
Second number: 2n+1+2 = 2n+3
The sum of these two numbers, 2n+1 and 2n+3 will be -76.
(2n+1) + (2n+3) = -76
2n + 2n + 1 + 3 = -76
4n + 4 = -76
4n = -80
n = -20
Since our first number is 2n+1:
2 * (-20) + 1 = -40 + 1 = -39
First number: -39
Our second number is 2n+3, or 2 more than our first number.
-39 + 2 = -37
Second number: -37
We can double check this:
-39 + (-37) = -39 - 37 = -76
start by plugging in the value you already have, in this case, 5 for y.
-4x-3(5)=17
-4x-15=17
-4x=32
x=-8
however, since a is a+1, a would be 7 (making x 8)
also plz tell me if i read this wrong and it’s actually 1,5 rather than a+1 and 5 cause if i did i’m so sorry lol.
