Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"Two times one number added to three times a second number is 21.
2x + 3y = 21
"The second number is ten less than five times the first number"
y = 5x-10
Substitution
2x+3(5x-10) = 21
2x + 15x - 30 = 21
17x = 51
x = 3
y = 5x-10 = 5
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
If you're rolling a single cube, then ...
-- There are 6 possible out comes.
-- One of them (5) is a multiple of 5 .
-- The probability of rolling it is (1/6) = <em>16-2/3 %</em> .
If everything is acting perfectly random, then ion 100 rolls,
you'd expect to succeed 16 or 17 times.
If you're rolling a pair of cubes, then ...
-- There are (6 x 6) = 36 possible outcomes.
-- There are seven ways to get a multiple of 5.
(1+4), (4+1), (2+3), (3+2), (4+6), (6+4), (5+5)
-- The probability of rolling one of those is
(7/36) = <em>19-4/9 %</em> .
If everything is acting perfectly random, then in 100 rolls,
you'd expect to succeed 19 or 20 times.
