C) 5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, suppose, dice 1 gives 2. Here also, dice 2 can be anything between 1 and 6. But, the sum of both the dices will be 8 only if dice 2 shows 6.

Similarly, now, if dice 1’s face is 3, sum will be 8 only if dice 2’s upper face shows 5.

If dice 1 shows 4, sum = 8 only if dice 2 is 4.

If dice 1 is 5, sum = 8 only if dice 2 is 3.

If dice 1 is 6, sum= 8 only if dice 2 is 2.

Therefore, sum will be 8 only 5 times. But, sample space consists of 36 values ( combination of values of dice 1 and dice 2).

Therefore, probability = 5/36.

Hope it helps.

The skating rink rented 872 pairs of skates during april and may.why? : if the skating rink rented three times the pair of skates in april during may, they rented 654 skates. 218 x 3 = 654then, if they want to know how many they rented during both april and may, then you just add 654 (may) and 218 (april) to give you 872 pairs of skates for both months.654 + 218 = 872hope this !

answer: the center is the median and/or mean of the data. the spread is the range of the data. and, the shape describes the type of graph. the four ways to describe shape are whether it is symmetric, how many peaks it has, if it is skewed to the left or right, and whether it is uniform. good luck

Carla was trying to decide what to do saturday evening. she has $100 available to spend for the evening. she has narrowed her choices down to these events: braves game, a concert of an artist she likes, or the georgia aquarium. admission to the braves game is $25, hot dogs cost $10, sodas cost $5. the concert costs $25 for admission, $20 for a souvernir t-shirt, and $10 for a soda. the georgia aquarium has the show of a lifetime with an all you can eat and drink that costs $100. carla does not want to take any driving chances, so in addition to the cost of the aquarium, she will also need to pay for her uber/lyft, which is $15 each way. which option should carla choose if she wants to spend the least? based on that choice, what then is carla's oppotunity cost? fully explain your answer in at least one paragraph.
