Henry rolls 2 number cubes numbered 1 through 6 while playing his favorite board game. He will get a second turn if he rolls a sum that is an even number less than 10. What are Henry's chances of getting a second turn when he rolls the number cubes? 7/18 11/18 5/36 17/36 I got 5/18. I added up the amount of different ways to get 2-8. I found 10. Either the test is wrong or I'm really bad at counting, and I'm not confident enough to count either of them out.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: (7)/(18)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size n ( total pairs )=6*6=36

Pairs having the even sum less than 10 area

(1,3), (3,1), (1,5), (5,1),(3,5),(5,3),

(2,4), (4,2), (2,6),(6,2),

(1,1),(3,3),(2,2),(4,4)

The number of ways to get a sum that is an even number less than 10= 14

The chances of getting a second turn when he rolls the number cubes==\frac{\text{favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}(14)/(36)=(7)/(18)

Hence, The chances of getting a second turn when he rolls the number cubes=(7)/(18)

Answer 2
Answer:
First of all, we know that each cube can land in 6 different ways,
so two cubes can land in (6x 6) = 36 different ways.

Now let's check your count.  How many ways can you roll a 2, 4, 6, or 8 ?

Cube-A  Cube-B
      1            1              2
      1            3              4
      3            1              4
      2            2              4
      1            5              6
      5            1              6
      2            4              6
      4            2              6
      3            3              6
      2            6              8
      6            2              8
      3            5              8
      5            3              8
      4            4              8

I get 14 ways.

So the probability of success is

         (number of successful ways) / (total possible ways) =

                       (14)                            /            (36)                  =  7/18 .

Given the function f(x)=0.5|x-4|-3, for what values of x is f(x)=7?

A. x=-24, x=16
B. x=-16, x=24
C. x=-1, x=9
D. x=1, x=-9

Answers

we have

f(x)=0.5\left|x-4\right|-3 -----> equation A

f(x)=7 -----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

0.5\left|x-4\right|-3=7

Adds 3 boths sides

0.5\left|x-4\right|-3+3=7+3

0.5\left|x-4\right|=10

Multiply by 2 boths sides

\left|x-4\right|=20

we know that

The function absolute value has two solutions

Step 1

Find the first solution (positive case)

+(x-4)=20

Adds 4 boths sides

x-4+4=20+4

x=24

Step 2

Find the second solution (negative case)

-(x-4)=20

Multiply by -1 boths sides

(x-4)=-20

Adds 4 boths sides

x-4+4=-20+4

x=-16

therefore

the answer is the option B

x=-16, x=24

7 = 0.5|x-4|- 3     add 3 to both sides: -
0.5|x-4| = 10        divide bs by 0,5:-
|x-4| = 20

either x - 4 = 20  or x - 4 = -20

this gives x = 24, x = -16

A subtending arc on a circle with a radius of 4.5 centimeters has an arc length of 8π. The measure of the angle subtended by the arc is °.

Answers

The arc length of a subtending arc on a circle has the formula:
s = rθ
where is the arc length
r is the radius
θ is the angle subtended

So,
θ = s/r = 8π / 4.5 = 16π/9

We multiply it with 180/
π to convert it to degrees.
(16π/90) (180/π) = 320°

The correct answer

320
