A six-sided die with sides labeled 1 through 6 will be rolled once. Each number is equally likely to be rolled. What is the probability of rolling a number less than 5
Using our 1 die probability calculator, P(X<5) = 2/3
m% means m/100
The word is means equals.
We have:
m/100 * m = 36
m^2/100 = 36
Cross multiply:
m^2 = 3600
Using our equation solver, we get:
m = -60 or m = 60
Since percentages cannot be negative, we have:
m = 60
2 fractions have denominators 3 and 4. Their sum = 17/12. If the numerators are switched the sum = 3/2. Determine the 2 fractions.
Given:
x/3 + y/4 = 17/12
Common Denominator = 12:
4x/12 + 3y/12 = 17/12
4x + 3y = 17
Switch numerators:
y/3 + x/4 = 3/2
Common Denominator = 12:
4y/12 + 3x/12 =...
A c B, so for all x E A, x E B
Since B c C, then x E B --> x E c
Therefore, for all x E A, x E C, which means A c C because Transitivity of subset relation.
2 positive consecutive odd integers such that the square of the first plus 3 times the second = 24
Let the first integer be n.
The next odd consecutive integer is n + 2
Square of the first plus 3 times the second = 24:
n^2 + 3(n + 2) = 24
n^2 + 3n + 6 = 24
Subtract 24 from each side:
n^2 + 3n...
A = lw
If we increased l by 50%, it would be 1.5l
If we decreased w by 50%, it would be 0.5l
A = (1.5l)(0.5w) = 0.75lw
lw - 0.75lw = 0.25lw or 25% lower
The formula for inclusive number counts from A to B is:
B - A + 1
With B = 30 and A = 10, we have
30 - 10 + 1
21
We're told everyone gets a jersey and there are 3 left over.
21 - 3 = 18 people on the team
1) The number a is 70% less than the positive number b
70% less means 100% - 70% = 30%
30% is 0.3
a = 0.3b
2) The number c is 80% greater than a
80% less means 100% + 80% = 180%
180% is 1.8
c = 1.8a
We want c in terms of b. Substitute equation 1 into equation 2:
c = 1.8(0.3b)
c = 0.54b
A 12-sided die is rolled. The set of equally likely outcomes is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,,8,9,10,11,12}. Find the probability of rolling a number less than 6.
P(X < 6) = P (rolling 1-5)
P(X < 6) = 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6
P(X < 6) = 5/6
Oliver rolls a fair six-sided dice and spins a fair three-sided spinner with equal-sized sections labelled 1,4 and 8. He adds the results together. What is the probability that the total he scores is greater than 8? Give your answer as a fraction in its simplest form.

a team received cash prizes for winning 3 games. They received 300 pesos 200 pesos and another 200 pesos as prizes. There are 4 pupils in the team. They divide them equally among themselves. How much will each pupil receive?
Total winnings = 200 + 300 + 200
Total winnings = 700 pesos

If FG = x + 1, GH = 2x, and FH = 4, what is FG?
FG + GH = FH due to segment addition
x + 1 + 2x = 4
Typing this equation into our math engine, we get:
x = 1
FG = 1 + 1
FG = 2
