Answer:

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of trout caught = 46

Number of trout caught by Steve = Number of trout caught by Bill + 14

Find:

Number of trout caught by Steve

Number of trout caught by Bill

Computation:

Assume;

Number of trout caught by Bill = a

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

So,

Number of trout caught by Steve + Number of trout caught by Bill = Total number of trout caught

a + a + 14 = 46

2a = 46 - 14

2a = 32

a = 16

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 16 + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

14

42

17. You roll a number cube. How likely is it that you will roll a number less than 7? <br> Explain
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

1 or 100%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of rolling less than 7 is equal to the probability of rolling 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6. That is 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 6/6. So any number from the dice can come up when you roll it because a perfect dice has 6 sides.
