Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value is the probability times the frequency.
3 = 1/6 × n
n = 18
Note: the use of the word "odds" is very misleading here. Odds are the ratio of number of successes to number of failures:
S / F
Probability is the ratio of number of successes to number of all outcomes:
S / (S + F)
So the probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6. The odds of rolling a 5 is 1/5.
Furthermore, the word "must" is also incorrect. The player didn't <em>have</em> to roll 18 times. They could have rolled three times and gotten a 5 each time. Or they could have rolled 100 times. 18 is simply the most <em>likely </em>number of rolls needed to get three 5's.
I hope this helps you
1/4+3/7
7/7.4+3.4/7.4
7/28+12/28
19/28
2860 times .12 equals $343.20
Answer: y=3*2+2
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 6 = 18...subtract 6 from both sides
-3x = 18 - 6
-3x = 12...divide both sides by -3
x = -12/3 reduces to -4 <===
