Does anyone know 1/4 x ? = -2?

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 x = -2

You want the value of x. x is being multiplied by 1/4. To get x alone on the left side, you need to divide both sides by 1/4. Dividing by 1/4 is the same as multiplying by 4.

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.

4 * 1/4 x = -2 * 4

4 * 1/4 = 1, so on the left side you get 1x which is just x.

x = 8

Answer: -8

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two fair dice, one blue and one red, are tossed, and the up face on each die is recorded.

a) P(E) = P(the difference of the numbers is 3 or more}

Favourable events are (1,4) (1,5)(1,6) (2,5) (2,6) (3,6) (4,1) (5,1) (5,2) (6,1) (6,2)(6,3)

P(E) = $\frac{12}{36} =\frac{1}{3}$

b)P(F)

Favourable events for F = (1,1) (2,2)...(6,6)

P(F) = $\frac{6}{36} =\frac{1}{6}$

c) P(EF)

There is no common element between E and F

P(EF) =0
