hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

yes they are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 28 =40

you subtract 28 from both sides

2x + 28 - 28 = 40 - 28

2x=12

divide 12 by 2 and get 6

2(6)=12

2(x + 14)= 40

So, 2(x) + 2(14)

2x + 28 = 40

So they're both the same, just with 2 different ways to solve the same equation...Hope this helps!!

A single die is rolled one time. Find the probability of rolling a number greater than 4 or less than 3.
Vika [28.1K]

<u>Answer: </u>

The probability of rolling a number greater than 4 or less than 3 is \frac{2}{3}

<u>Solution: </u>

In the given question there are two events as follows:

(a) Rolling a number greater than 4 i.e. A = {5,6}

(b) Rolling a number less than 3 i.e. B = {1,2}

Since a die has 6 numbers,

 P(A) = \frac{2}{6} where P(A) is the probability of occurrence of event A and P(B) = \frac{2}{6}

Since, Event A and Event B has nothing in common therefore they are mutually exclusive events.

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B)

=\frac{2}{6}+\frac{2}{6}

=\frac{4}{6}

=\frac{2}{3}

Therefore the probability of getting a number greater than 4 or less than 3 is \frac{2}{3}
