A standard number cube is tossed. Find the following probability. P(greater than 4 or odd)

2 answers:

8 0

A standard cube has 6 possible outcomes. But since we want to find P(4+ or odd), the outcomes become more narrow.
So:
6 outcomes -> 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

But we want to find 4+
So:
4+ = 4, 5, 6

We also want to find all odd possibilities.
So:
odd = 1, 3, 5

As you can see, there is a 5 in both the 4+ and the odd numbers so 5 will only be counted once.
P(4+ or odd) = 1, 3, 4, 5, 6

So the probability of having an outcome that is P(4+ or odd) is:
5/6 or 0.8333 or 83.33%

Hope I helped!

Write an equation in the form y = mx + b that represents this line.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The form, y = mx + b is the slope intercept form of a straight line.

Where b = intercept

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the vertical axis) / (change in the value of x in the horizontal axis.

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

y2 represents final value of y = - 3

y1 represents initial value of y = 3

x2 represents final value of x = 3

x1 represents initial value of x = 0

Therefore,

slope = (- 3 - 3)/(3 - 0) = - 6/3 = - 2

To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = - 2, x = 3 and y = -3 into y = mx + b. It becomes

- 3 = - 2 × 3 + b = - 6 + b

b = - 3 + 6 = 3

The equation becomes

y = - 3x + 3

Simplify (2/9)^3 A.6/9 B.8/729 C.2/720

saw5 [17]

Answer:

$\frac{8}{729}$

Explanation:

Before we begin, remember that:

( $\frac{a}{b}$ )ⁿ = $\frac{a^n}{b^n}$

This means that power is distributed in case of division

The given is:

$(\frac{2}{9} )^3$

Applying the above rule, we would get:

$(\frac{2}{9} )^3$ = $\frac{2^3}{9^3} = \frac{2*2*2}{9*9*9} = \frac{8}{729}$

Hope this helps :)

Anita bought these supplies for school 5 packs of pencils that cost 0.79 each 8 pens for 1.19 each what was the total cost of th

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

14.38

Step-by-step explanation:

1. multiply the 5 packs of pencils times 0.79 each (5x0.79 = 3.95)

2. multiply the 8 packs of pens times 1.19 each (8x1.19=9.52)

3. add the total of pens and pencils together (3.95+9.52=13.44)

4. multiply 13.44 times 7% sales tax (13.44x.07=0.94)

5. add the total plus the sales tax (13.44+0.94=14.38
