Answer:
-2x +4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write the polynomial p(x) in terms of the factors (x+2) and (x-3) as ...
p(x) = (x+2)(x-3)q(x) +ax +b
Where ax+b is the remainder from division by x^2 -x -6 = (x+2)(x-3). The values of 'a' and 'b' can be found from ...
p(-2) = 8 = -2a +b
p(3) = -2 = 3a +b
Subtracting the first equation from the second gives ...
(3a +b) -(-2a +b) = (-2) -(8)
5a = -10
a = -2
Then the first equation tells us ...
8 = -2(-2) +b
4 = b
So, the remainder from division by (x^2 -x -6) is (-2x +4).
P(Getting # less than 3) = 2/6
P(Getting tails) = 1/2
P(Less than 3 and tails) = 1/2*2/6 = 1/6
Answer: 1/6
