x-(x/3)=2
turn x into a fraction x/1
to get x/1 -x/3 = 2
multiply x/1 x 3/3 to get both fractions with same denominator
3x/3 - x/3
(3x-x)/3
3x-x = 2x
so now you have (2x)/3 =2
multiply both sides by 3 to get 2x = 6
divide bothe sides by 2 to get x = 3, which is the answer
Answer:
AB = 142
Step-by-step explanation:
If M is the midpoint, then AM = MB
6x+5 = 7x -6
Subtract 6x from each side
6x-6x+5 = 7x-6x -6
5 = x-6
Add 6 to each side
5+6 = x-6+6
11=x
We want to find AB
AB = 6x+5+7x-6
AB = 13x -1
= 13(11) -1
=143-1
= 142
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of rolling a sum of 9 or a sum that is even from two number cubes is
11/18
Explanation:
When a dice is rolled there are different ways in which
9. can be obtained, which are (3,6) or (4,5) or (5,4) or (6,3). 4 options. As in all there are
6⋅6=36 options, probability is 4/36 or 1/9.
For getting an even number as sum, we can have (1,1) or (1.3) or (1,5) or (2,2) or (2,4) or (2,6) or (3,1) or (3,3) or (3,5) or (4,2) or (4,4) or (4,6) or (5,1) or (5,3) or (5,5) or (6,2) or (6,4) or (6,6) 18 options, probability is 18/36 or 1/2.
Note that the two events (getting 9 or even sum) are mutually exclusive, the probabilities can be just added i.e. combined probability is
1/9+1/2=2+9/18i.e. 11/18
