Answer:

It is better to bet on 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

We are rolling two 6-sided numbered cubes and placing bets on the 'sum of the outcome'.

So, the pair of numbers will be the possible options for the outcome to be their sum.

Now, the possibility to have the sum of 3, 4, 7 and 11 are:

3 = 1+2 i.e. only one pair is the possibility

4 = 1+3 = 2+2 i.e there are two pairs as the possibility

7 =  1+6 = 2+5 = 3+4 i.e. there are three possible pairs

11 = 5+6 i.e. only one pair is the possibility

So, the maximum possibility of a sum to be the outcome is when the sum = 7 i.e. there are 3 possible pairs for the sum to be 7.

Hence, 7 has the highest possibility to become the outcome.

So, It is better to bet on 7.

To solve for this, we need to figure out the sum of any two numbers on the dice that will become a pair factor for the listed answers.
What I mean by that is that we need to find the probability between how many two numbers will sum up to the answer.

3 can be 1 + 2, that's it. 3 has a probability of (1).
4 has a sum of 1 + 3, and 2 + 2, that's it. 4 has a probability of (2).
7 has a sum of 1 + 6, 2 + 5, and 3 + 4. 7 has a probability of (3).
11 has a sum of 5 + 6, that's it. 11 has a probability of (1).

The numbers in parenthesis are the probabilities.
7 has the highest number, so 7 has the highest probability.

Your answer is: 7.

I hope this helps!

How do I construct angle XYZ with a measure of 2 times the measure of angle ABC
Serjik [45]
I can’t understand why everyone complicates this question. It can be easily solved by similar triangles.


In this png, we have something to make sure.

∠B=∠DAB
∠
B
=
∠
D
A
B
(Yes, dab)

This also means AD=BD
A
D
=
B
D
.

This is our basic construction of D, which is going to help us.

∠ADC=∠DAB+∠B=2∠B=∠CAB
∠
A
D
C
=
∠
D
A
B
+
∠
B
=

∠
B

∠CAD=∠CAB−∠DAB=∠B
∠
C
A
D
=
∠
C
A
B
−
∠
D
A
B
=
∠
B

These are based on the fact that ∠A=2×∠B
∠
A

∠
B

Actually these conditions suffice. Because I am just proving that △ACD∼△BCA

Similarity makes us realize the following:

ACBC=ADAB
A
C
B
C
=
A
D
A
B

and

ACBC=CDAC
A
C
B
C
=
C
D
A
C

So

AC×AB=BC×AD
A
C

A
B
=
B
C
×
A
D

and

AC2=BC×CD
A
C
2
=
B
C
×
C
D

So

BC2=BC×(BD+CD)=BC×(AD+CD)
B
C

=
B
C

(

=

(

=AC×AB+AC2
