Step-by-step explanation:
We can immediately eliminate answers B and C because we have >, meaning that the circle on the number line has to be open.
-2x+7>17
subtract 7 on both sides
-2x>10
divide by -2. remember that dividing by a negative flips the greater than or less than sign.
x<-5
the answer is D
Answer:
13/100 + 11/10 = 123/100
Step-by-step explanation:
The rolls of the dice are independent, i.e. the outcome of the second die doesn't depend in any way on the outcome of the first die.
In cases like this, the probability of two events happening one after the other is the multiplication of the probabilities of the two events.
So, the probability of rolling two 6s is the multiplication of the probabilities of rolling a six with the first die, and another six with the second:
Similarly,
Actually, you can see that the probability of rolling any ordered couple is always 1/36, since the probability of rolling any number on both dice is 1/6:
Answer:
The amount of white paint Jen used to paint the walls in her room is:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the exercise you only have to pay attention to the statement, in the section that says that 4/5 parts of the total painting is blue, therefore, if 1 is the total painting, you must do a subtraction:
Since the remaining white paint is 1/5 of the total, you have two ways to solve the exercise: multiply the total paint (8.2 pints) by 1/5 or divide the number by 5, as shown below:
- <u>Amount of white paint = 8.2 pints * (1/5) = 1.64 pints.
</u>
- <u>Amount of white paint = 8.2 pints / 5 = 1.64 pints.
</u>
As you can see, the two methods provide a <u>value of 1.64 pints, which corresponds to 1/5 of the total paint and is the amount of white paint used</u>.
