This is a permutation problem in which you are to arrange the objects and the order doesn't matter. You can easily calculate it using your scientific calculator. Just use the formula nPr, where n is the total number of objects taken r at a time.

PAYMENT = 7 letters => 7P5 = 2520
There are 2,520 ways

For butterfly, its quite tricky because there are two letters. Oder does matter here, since no matter which t comes first, that is still the same. So, this is what you do:

BUTTERFLY = 9 letters
9P5 ÷ 2! => since there are two same letters
15120 ÷ 2 = 7560
There are 7560 ways.

Explanation:

The number of times the 6-sided number cube will be rolled will is

750

Let the numbers greater than 4 be represented below as

E_1\begin{gathered} E_1=\lbrace5,6\rbrace \\ n(E_1)=2 \end{gathered}

The number of sample space will be

n(S)=6

The probability of rolling a number greater than 4 will be calculated below as

\begin{gathered} Pr(E_1)=\frac{n(E_1)}{n(S)} \\ Pr(E_1)=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3} \end{gathered}

Hence,

To calculate the number of times a number greater than 4 will be rolled will be calculated below as

\begin{gathered} =Pr(E_1)\times750 \\ =\frac{1}{3}\times750 \\ =250times \end{gathered}

Hence,

The final answer is

\Rightarrow250\text{ }times

Answer:

D. 48

Step-by-step explanation:

In the experiment, 16/40 landed exactly on heads. If you do 16/40 * 3/3 = 48/120.

This means that you can estimate 48 of the next 120 trials have 2 coins showing heads.
