The probability distribution for the face landing down =  4/15

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical descriptions of how likely it is for an event to happen or for a claim to be true. A number between 0 and 1 is the probability of an event, where, broadly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes its certainty.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

If we assign 1 probability x

then 2 has probability  1/2 x.

Similarly,

then 3 has probability = 1/2((1/2)*x) = (1/4)*x

so

then 4 has probability = 1/2((1/4)*x) = (1/8)*x

These probabilities need to sum to 1.

Hence:

                x+\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{1}{4} x+\frac{1}{8} x=1

or equivalently

                   (15/8)*x = 1

                       x = 8/15

the probability distribution for the face landing down  = (1/2)*(8/15)

                                                                                         = 8/30

                                                                                         =  4/15

I understand that the question you are looking for is:

A tetrahedral die has four faces, numbered 1-4. If the die is weighted in such a way that each number is twice as likely to land facing down as the next number (1 twice as likely as 2, 2 twice as likely as 3, and so on) what is the probability distribution for the face landing down?

What expressions equal to 1 forth of 52
Klio2033 [76]
Remember that x/4 and 1/4*x is the same thing.

1/4*52 is therefore the same as 52/4. Fractions represent division, so 52 divided by 4 is also correct.
0.25*x is the same as 1/4*x because 1/4=0.25
4% of 52 is incorrect because the decimal form of 4% is 0.04, which is not the same as 0.25

Final answer: B

The hundreds digit and the ones digit of a three digit number are the same. The sum of its tree digits are 16. If the tens digit
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
<h2>727</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

       Let us denote the three digit number by abc, where a is the hundreds digit, b is the tens digit and c is the ones digit.

       Hundreds digit = a = Ones digit = c

       Sum of digits = a+b+c=16

       So, 2c+b=16

       On exchanging tens and ones digit, value increases by 45. So acb is 45 greater than abc.

       acb-abc=45

       100a+10c+b-100a-10b-c=45\\9c-9b=45\\c-b=5

       2c+b=16,c-b=5\\3c=21\\c=7=a\\b=2

∴ Required number is 727
