Yes, I would play the game, because the probability of winning is 13/18.

Probability:

Probability refer the possible occurrence of any particular event.

Given,

A game where two players each throw two dice each. if any one die matches the other, you win a dollar. if there is no match, you lose a dollar.

Here we need to find whether we able to play this one or not.

To find that one, first, we have to identify the winning scenarios,

Let us consider five winning scenarios. Lets represent the dice outcomes as A, B, C, and D, where your dice are A and B and the other player's are C and D. The five scenarios are:

1) A = B

2) A = C

3) A = D

4) B = C

5) B = D

We know that the total possible outcomes is 6^4. We can go through each scenario and count the possible outcomes. We must be careful to avoid overcounting.

Based on this,

The probability that none match is

=> 6*5*4*3/6^4

=> 360 / 1296

=> 5 / 18

So, probability of winning is,

=> 1 - 5/18

=> 13/18.

So, based on the probability the chance of winning is high. So, we can play it.

Help please I'm marking brainiest
Mademuasel [1]

Answer and explanation:

1. 9:12 or \frac{9}{12} or 9 to 12

It has 9 first because there are 9 lions and then 12 after because there are 12 elephants.

2. 8:16 or \frac{8}{16} or 8 to 16

It has 8 first because there are 8 giraffes and then 16 after because there are 16 otters.

3. 9:10 or \frac{9}{10} or 9 to 10

It has 9 first because there are 9 lions and then 10 after because there are 10 seals.

4. 10:12 or \frac{10}{12} or 10 to 12

It has 10 first because there are 10 seals and then 12 after because there are 12 elephants.

5. 12:9 or \frac{12}{9} or 12 to 9

It has 12 first because there are 10 elephants and then 9 after because there are 9 lions.

6. \frac{8}{6} or \frac{40}{30} or \frac{16}{12}

I just multiplied it first the first one by 2, second one by 10, and 3rd one by 4.

7. \frac{6}{7} or \frac{42}{49} or \frac{60}{70}

I just simplified it first, then I multiplied the simplified one by 6 for the second one, and for the 3rd one I multiplied the simplified by 10.

8. \frac{2}{3} or \frac{4}{6} or \frac{20}{30}

I just simplified it first, then I multiplied the simplified one by 2 for the second one, and for the 3rd one I multiplied the simplified by 10.

9. 3:4 is equivalent to 6:8, 30:40, 12:16

I multiplied it first by 2, then by 10, then by 4.

10. 5:7 is equivalent to 10:14, 50:70, 25:35

I multiplied it first by 2, then by 10, then by 5.

11. 9:2 is equivalent to 18:4, 90:20, 27:6

I multiplied it first by 2, then by 10, then by 3.

12.

a. 48

So first, the ratio we know is 5:4 which in other words is 5x:4x. We also know that there are 60 clownfish. So that means 5x = 60 --> x = 12. So then 4x has to equals 12 x 4 which is 48.

b. 36

So first, the ratio we know is 4:3 which in other words is 4x:3x. We also know that there are 48 angelfish. So that means 4x = 48 --> x = 12. So then 3x has to equals 12 x 3 which is 36.

Hope this helped! <3

Someone PLSSS HELPPPP !!!!
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

p^3  / q^12

Step-by-step explanation:

p^6 q^4

------------------

p^3 q^16

We know a^b / a^c = a^(b-c)

First with variable p

p^6 /  p ^3 = p^(6-3) = p^3

Then with variable q

q^4 / q^16 = q^(4-16) = q^-12  and a^-b = 1/ a^b = 1 /q^12

p^3 * 1/ q^12

p^3  / q^12
