Find the odds for and the odds against the event rolling a fair die and getting a 4, a 2, or a 1.
HACTEHA [7]

Answer: Both in favor and against: 3/6 OR 1/2 OR 50%.

Step-by-step explanation: Both in favor and against: 3/6 OR 1/2 OR 50%.

The probability of rolling one die and getting any digit is \frac{1}{6}. That is because the desired outcome is only 1 digit out of the 6 total digits on each of the six sides.

That means the probability of rolling either a 1, a 2, or a 4 <em>if you are looking for any of those numbers specifically, </em>is \frac{1}{6}. But! You are looking to roll a 1, a 2, or a 4, without any preference among those three. Therefore, you are going to add the desired outcomes.

\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6}  + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 = 50%

Above, are added the probability of rolling a 1 PLUS the probability of rolling a 2 PLUS the probability of rolling a 4, yielding a 50% probability.

Think about it. There are six total digits on a die. You are okay with rolling three of those. Three is half of six. Therefore, the probability of rolling the number you'd like is one-half, fifty-percent.

Likewise, since the probability of all complement events happening is 1 (or 100%), The odds against rolling either 1, 2, or 4 is also fifty-percent. 100% (which is rolling <em>any </em>number on a die) MINUS 50% (which is rolling a 1, a 2, or a 4 with no preference) EQUALS TO 50% (which is rolling a 3, a 5, or a 6).

Bob and Mark talk about their families. Bob says he has 3 kids, the product of their ages is 72. He gives another clue: the sum
makvit [3.9K]
The first clue to this problem is that Bob has three kids in which the product of their ages is 72 and the sum is 14. From the factor tree, there  are two combinations of the ages  2, 6, 6 and<span>  3,3,8. Last thing he said is that his youngest is named Justice. One combination has similar number in the set which means there are twins. The youngest means there can be only one child. Hence the ages of the children are 2,6,and 6. </span>

We know that , in a circle radius perpendicular to chord will bisect the chord. 
OM=18, so OQ=QM=18/2=9.
 Given QU=8
from figure OQU is a right angled triangle , so OU^2=OQ^2 + QU^2
OU^2 = 9*9 + 8*8 = 81+72=153;
OU=sqrt(153) = 12.37 =13(approx);
From given statements of congruent NT and OU will also be congruent or identical. So, NT=OU=13

Brock weighs 134 pounds, he will lose 3 pounds a day until he is 126 pounds

D will represent the number of days he will work out.

134 - 3d < 126

134 - 3(3) < 126

125 < 126
