Answer:

5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the outcome that a  event will occur

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

Since two sided dice are rolled, the total outcome will be expressed as;

Total outcome = 36

Since we are to find the probability that the sum is 8, the values that gives a sum of 8a re;

(2,6)(6,2), (5, 3), (3,5), (4, 4)

The expected outcome = 5

Probability = 5/36

Hence the probability that the sum is 8 is 5/36

Oxana [17]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

78 + b = 91            Equation: Subtract 78 from both sides.

b = 91 - 78            

b = 13

You don't need her position in the game or the fact that 91 placed her second.

Safia opens a new savings account with a 2.25% simple interest rate. She deposits $3,500 and earned $3,696.88 total (with intere
Art [367]

Answer:

The money was left untouched for 2 years and 6 months or just 2.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the time taken for an amount deposited to earn a certain amount of interest.

Mathematically, simple interest can be calculated using the formula;

I = PRT/100

where I is the interest accrued which is 3696.88 - 3,500 = 196.88

P is the principal which is the amount deposited = 3,500 according to the question

R is the rate which is 2.25% according to the question

T is the time which we are to find

we can rearrange the formula making T the subject and we obtain the following;

T = 100I/PR

substituting the values listed above we have;

T = (100 * 196.88)/(3500 * 2.25)

T = 19688/7875

T = 2.5 years or 2 years 6 months
