Use the fraction model to multiply: two multiplied by four sixths. Leave your answer as an improper fraction.

You are playing a board game with your little sister. Moves are determined by rolling 2 six-sided dice. The red die tells you th

Answer: The probability is 1/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's define the possible outcomes of each dice:

Red: Forward (4 times), Backward (2 times)

Green : {1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4}

We want to find the probability of moving backward 2 spaces.

Then we need to find the probability of rolling a "backward" in the red dice, and a 2 in the green dice.

First, the probability of rolling a backward in the red dice is equal to the quotient between the number of outcomes that are "backward", and the total number of outcomes in the dice (there are 2 backwards and 6 outcomes in total), this is:

p1 = 2/6 = 1/3.

And the probability of rolling a 2 in the green dice is equal to the quotient between the number of outcomes with a 2, and the total number of outcomes. (The 2 appears two times, and there are 6 possible outcomes):

p2 = 2/6 = 1/3.

Now, the probability of both events happening at the same time is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, then the probability of moving backwards 2 spaces is:

P = p1*p2 = (1/3)*(1/3) = 1/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

5.The measure of smaller angle is 87 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The provided angles are 3x degree and 2x + 25 degree.

Two angles are said to be Supplementary angles if their sum is 180 degree.

It is given that the provided angle are supplementary angles, thus

3x + 2x + 25 = 180

5x + 25 = 180

5x = 180 - 25

5x = 155

x = 31

Now, substitute the value of x in first angle i.e 3x.

3(31) = 93

Substitute the value of x in the second angle i.e 2x + 25

2(31) + 25 = 62 + 25 = 87

Hence, the measure of smaller angle is 87 degrees.

Solve for x.

Answer:

$x=-\frac{9}{4} \\ or \:\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-2 (x + 1/4)+1=5\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1=5\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1-1=5-1\\\\Simplify\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)=4\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2\\\frac{-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)}{-2}=\frac{4}{-2}\\\\Simplify\\x+\frac{1}{4}=-2\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{1}{4}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=-2-\frac{1}{4}\\\\Simplify\\x=-\frac{9}{4}\\\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}$
