Make your fractions have common denominators
</span>13-((32/40)+(30/40))
Add your fractions and simplify
13-(62/40)
or
13-(31/20)
or
13-(1 11/20)
Then turn 13 into a fraction with a common denominator! Im going to use the second fraction method (31/20)
13 written as a fraction is 13/1, its LCD with 31/20 is 20. I now multiply the top and bottom by 20
260/20
Now I rewrite the problem again
(260/20)-(31/20)
Which equals
229/20!
This is your unsimplified answer
Finally you simplify and get
11 9/20
Answer: 1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
7x=1
x=1/7
The mistake Shawna made was in her answer the 54 repeats so the bar should be over the .54 not the .545
What you want is P(6∩1) or P(1∩6) or P(2∩5) or P(5∩2) or P(3∩4) or P(4∩3).
The events of rolling the dice are independent (i.e. they don't affect one another) so:
E.g.
P(6∩1) = P(6) * P(1)
P(2∩5) = P(2) * P(5)
The probability of getting a given number on a roll is 1/6 for both dice.
So:
P(6∩1) = 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36
This is the same for any arrangement of numbers you could get from rolling two dice.
So, we can see that there are 6 arrangements of numbers that will give a sum of 7 and so that is 6 * 1/36 = 6/36 = 1/6
Answer:
<u>x = 1.07</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
13 ( 6x - 9) = -33
78x - 117 = -33 ( opening brackets and multiplying )
78x = 84 ( - 117 taken to the other side makes it positive)
x = 84 / 78
x = <u>1.07</u>
