Two standard dice are thrown. Determine the theoretical probability that the sum is
a) 4 b) 7
c) an even number d) not a 6 e) not a perfect square

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 (6×6) possible results and number combinations for 2 dice.

a)

to create a sum of 4 we need one of the following combinations :

1 3

2 2

3 1

so, 3 out of the overall possible 36 possibilities.

and that means the probability is 3/36 = 1/12

b)

to create a sum of 7 we need one of the following combinations :

1 6

2 5

3 4

4 3

5 2

6 1

so, 6 out of the overall possible 36 possibilities.

and that means a probability of 6/36 = 1/6

c)

since the possible outcomes in that regard are only 2 (even and uneven), with equal balance the probability is 1/2.

make it more formal ?

to get an even sum, every possible number on one die can be combined with 3 possibilities on the other.

1 can be combined with 1, 3, 5

2 with 2, 4, 6

3 with 1, 3, 5

4 with 2, 4, 6

5 with 1, 3, 5

6 with 2, 4, 6

these are 6×3 = 18 combinations of of the possible 36.

so, the probability is 18/36 = 1/2

d)

not a 6 ?

so, what does that mean ?

we are looking only at 5 possible outcomes per die.

that is 5×5 = 25 combinations out of the possible 36.

that means that probabilty is 25/36.

e)

not a perfect square ?

we have in the range of the possible sums with 2 dice (2 .. 12) only two perfect squares : 4 and 9

so, the sum must NOT be 4 AND NOT be 9.

so, here it might be easier to count the unwanted cases and then deduct the probability from 1 to express the opposite.

the combinations to get 4 we have already under a)

3 combinations with 3/36=1/12 probability.

the combinations to get 9

1 none

2 none

3 6

4 5

5 4

6 3

so, 4 combinations with a probability of 4/36 = 1/9

therefore, we have (3+4) = 7 cases out of the possible 36 we actually want to avoid.

so, the probability to get any one of the other (desired) combinations is therefore (36-7)/36 = 29/36

Answer 2

The probabilities are:

a)  0.083b) 0.167c)   0.5d)  0.861e) 0.806.

How to get the probabilities?

The probability for a given outcome is given by the quotient between the number of combinations that give that outcome and the total number of combinations.

Here each dice has 6 possible outcomes, so the total number of combinations for the two dice is:

6*6 = 36 combinations.

a) Here we need to count how many combinations add to 4, the notation I will use is:

dice 1   dice 2

1              3

3               1

2               2

There are 3 combinations that add to 4, then the probability of getting a sum equal to 4 is:

P = 3/36 = 0.083

b) Same thing as before, this time we count the combinations that add to 7.

dice 1   dice 2

1               6

6               1

5               2

2               5

4                3

3                4

There are 6 combinations that add to 7, so the probability is:

P = 6/36 = 0.167

c) The possible even numbers are: {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}

A way of doing this, is:

If the first dice is even/odd, then the second also must be even/odd.

Then the probability is just 1/2  = 0.5 (because there are the same number of odd and even numbers in a dice).

d) The sum must not be equal to 6, the combinations that add up to 6 are:

dice 1   dice 2

2            4

4             2

3             3

1              5

 5            1

So 5 combinations add up to 6, then there are 31 combinations that do not add up to 6, this means that the probability of not getting a sum equal to 6 is:

P = 31/36 = 0.861

e) The perfect squares are 4 and 9, we already know that 3 combinations add up to 4, now let's find the combinations that add up to 9.

dice 1   dice 2

6             3

3              6

5              4

4               5

So 4 combinations add up to 9, then there is a total of 7 combinations that give a perfect square, then there are 29 combinations that do not add to a perfect square.

The probability is:

P = 29/36 = 0.806

One pen is taken at random from the box.
Write down the probability that this pen is blue.

Answers

Answer:

0.316

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = (number of outcomes)/(total number of outcomes)

In this case,

the total number of outcomes is 6+5+8 = 19, and

the number of outcomes for getting a blue pen = 6

Hence,

P(blue) = 6/19 = 0.31578947368 ≈ 0.316

Isaac wants to play miniature golf. Go Golf charges $2.50 for ball and club rental and $4.25 per game. Golf Games charges $3.25 for ball and club rental and $8.50 for two games. For how many games would the cost be the same? Write and solve an equation to determine the number of games for which the cost would be the same.​

Answers

The cost would be the same for 47 Go golf and 54 golf games.

What is the Multiplication operation?

In mathematics, Multiplication operations perform Multiplying values on either side of the operator.

Given data as:

Charges for Go Golf -

Renting a ball and a club costs $2.50.

$4.25 for one game and

Charges for Golf Games -

3.25 for the rental of a ball and a club

$8.50 for two games

We have to determine the number of games would the cost be the same.

Total charges of Go golf per game = $2.50 + $4.25 = $6.75

Total charges of Golf game for 2 games = $3.25 + $8.50  = $11.75

For per game = $11.75 / 2 = $5.875

Let the game would be x for  Go golf and

And let game would be y for the golf game

As per the given condition,

6.75 x = 5.875y

27/4 x = 47/8 y

Apply cross multiplication operation,

54x = 47y

x/y = 47 / 54

x = 47

So y = 54.

Hence, the cost would be the same for 47 Go golf and 54 golf games.

The cost would be the same for 47 games at Go Golf and 54 games at Golf Games.

Total charges of Go golf per game = $2.50 + $4.25 = $6.75

Total charges of Golf game for 2 games = $3.25 + $8.50  = $11.75

Cost per game at Golf Games

= Total charges for 2 games / 2

= $11.75 / 2

= $5.875

Let the number of games be x for Go Golf and y for Golf Games.

As per the given condition,

6.75x = 5.875y

To find the relation between x and y, cross-multiplication can be used:

27/4 x = 47/8 y

54x = 47y

x/y = 47/54

Comparing the value gives

x = 47 and y = 54.

Hence, the cost would be the same for 47 games at Go Golf and 54 games at Golf Games.

Answer:

In Functions and Function Notation, we were introduced to the concepts of domain and range. In this section, we will practice determining domains and ranges for specific functions. Keep in mind that, in determining domains and ranges, we need to consider what is physically possible or meaningful in real-world examples, such as tickets sales and year in the horror movie example above. We also need to consider what is mathematically permitted. For example, we cannot include any input value that leads us to take an even root of a negative number if the domain and range consist of real numbers. Or in a function expressed as a formula, we cannot include any input value in the domain that would lead us to divide by 0.

The Astronomical Telescope shop plans to introduce a new model based on the following information: Rent and utilities per period are $ {fixed}; variable cost per unit is $ 217; selling price per unit is $ 305; determine the break-even point in units if rent and utilities are increased to $ 5420.

Answers

Using the profit concept, it is found that the break-even point is of 61.6 units.

Profit is given by revenue subtracted by cost.The break-even point is when the revenue is the same as the cost, which means that the profit is zero.

In this problem:

Variable cost per unit x of $217, fixed cost of $5,420, thus, the cost equation is given by:

[tex]C(x) = 217x + 5420[/tex]

Selling price per unit of $305, thus, the revenue equation is given by:

[tex]R(x) = 305x[/tex]

The break-even point is the value of x for which:

[tex]R(x) = C(x)[/tex]

Then

[tex]305x = 217x + 5420[/tex]

[tex]88x = 5420[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{5420}{88}[/tex]

[tex]x = 61.6[/tex]

The break-even point is of 61.6 units.

Find the X intercept and the Y intercept for 2x-6y=12

Answers

Answer:

x: (6,0)

y: (0,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-intercept, substitute in  0  for  y  and solve for  x . To find the y intercept, substitute in  0  for  x  and solve for  y .

Ex -

X : 2x -6(0)=12

2x=12

2 cancels out with 2

12/2 = 6

Y: 2(0 )- 6y =12

-6y=12

negative 6 times negative 6 cancels

12/-6 = -2

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 2x-6y=12

Plug 0 in the equation for y:

y is zero

2x-6(0)=12

2x=12

The x-intercept:  (6,0)

Plug 0 in the equation for x:

x is zero

2(0)-6y=12

−6y=12

The y-intercept:  (0,−2)

Translate into an algebraic equation, then solve the equation.
