A 6-sided die with sides numbered 1 through 6 is tossed. A penny is then tossed. If the penny comes up heads, the value of the d

ie is multiplied by 2. Otherwise, the value of the die is left unchanged.
What is the probability that the outcome is less than 6?

Answer:

The probability that the outcome is less than 6 is 58.333%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a 6-sided die with sides numbered 1 through 6 is tossed, ya penny is then tossed, and if the penny comes up heads, the value of the die is multiplied by 2, but otherwise, the value of the die is left unchanged, to determine what is the probability that the outcome is less than 6 the following calculation must be performed:

(5/6 + 2/6) / 2 = X

(0.8333 + 0.0333) / 2 = X

1.1666666 / 2 = X

0.583333 = X

Therefore, the probability that the outcome is less than 6 is 58.333%.

Help me solve this Question thanks

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{-m}{2}$ - $\frac{5}{4}$ ≤ $\frac{5m}{12}$ - $\frac{7}{6}$

Multiply through by 12 to clear the fractions

- 6m - 15 ≤ 5m - 14 ( subtract 5m from both sides )

- 11m - 15 ≤ - 14 ( add 15 to both sides )

- 11m ≤ 1

Divide both sides by - 11, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity

m ≥ - $\frac{1}{11}$ → C

A:b 1:5 a:c 2:1 how many times is b bigger than c ?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

b is 10 times greater

Step-by-step explanation:

If we multiply the first ratio by 2/2, we get 2/10. Since b=10 and c=1, b is 10 times greater.

What is the most precise name for a quadrilateral with the following vertices:

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

A(2,3) B(7,2) C(6,-1) D(1,0)

Plot the quadrilateral'

using a graphing tool

The quadrilateral ABCD in the attached figure

Verify the length of the sides

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find distance AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(2-3)^{2}+(7-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+(5)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 2

Find distance BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(6-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_B_C=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 3

Find distance CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0+1)^{2}+(1-6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(1)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}$

$d_C_D=\sqrt{26}\ units$

step 4

Find distance AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(0-3)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_A_D=\sqrt{10}\ units$

step 5

Compare the length sides

AB=CD

BC=AD

Opposite sides are congruent

<em>Verify the slope of the sides</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find slope AB

A(2,3) B(7,2)

substitute

$m=\frac{2-3}{7-2}$

$m=\frac{-1}{5}$

$m_A_B=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 2

Find slope BC

B(7,2) C(6,-1)

substitute

$m=\frac{-1-2}{6-7}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_B_C=3$

step 3

Find slope CD

C(6,-1) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0+1}{1-6}$

$m=\frac{1}{-5}$

$m_C_D=-\frac{1}{5}$

step 4

Find slope AD

A(2,3) D(1,0)

substitute

$m=\frac{0-3}{1-2}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-1}$

$m_A_D=3$

step 5

Compare the slopes

$m_A_B=m_C_D$

$m_B_C=m_A_D$

The slope of the opposite sides are equal, that means, opposite sides are parallel

The slopes of consecutive sides are not opposite reciprocal, that means, consecutive sides are not perpendicular

therefore

The most precise name for a quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram
