4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Fair dice are dice that have 6 sides, and the probability of rolling a side is the same as rolling another.

Since each die has 6 sides, the most you can get from the two dice are 6 + 6 = 12. Therefore, getting a 13 is impossible. So, there is a probability of 0.

Hope this helps!

Answer: They will travel about 131.18 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A football field is 120 yards long by 53 yards wide.

We know that a football field is rectangular in shape.

Each interior angle in a rectangle is a right angle.

Then, by Pythagoras theorem, we have

(Diagonal)² = (Length)² + (Width)²

If a player runs diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner, then the length of the diagonal is given by :-

$(\text{Diagonal})=\sqrt{(120)^2+(53)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ (\text{Diagonal})=\sqrt{14400+2809}\\\\\Rightarrow\ (\text{Diagonal})=\sqrt{17209}\\\\\Rightarrow\ (\text{Diagonal})=131.183078177\approx131.18\text{ yards}$
