<h3>The answer as a fraction is 1/2</h3><h3>In decimal form the answer converts to 0.5 which is equivalent to 50%</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
"given that the first die rolled is a 2" means we know 100% that the first die shows a 2. Either we can see the die or a friend is telling us the status. Since we know the first die is a 2, this means we can effectively ignore it. Everything will hinge on the second die. If the second die shows an odd number, something like 1, then 2+1 = 3 is the result which is also odd.
The general rule is odd+even = odd and even+even = even.
Therefore, the two dice must together be even for the sum to be even.
Of the six possible ways to roll a die {1,2,3,4,5,6}, there are 3 even values {2,4,6} so the chances of rolling an even number on the second die is 3/6 = 1/2. Again we dont need to consider the first die at all since everything practically hinges on this second die.
A
No 9 is bigger than the other 2 added together.
B
3+ 6 = 9. A triangle cannot be formed.
C
4+5 = 9. A triangle cannot be formed. The shorter two will just make the length of the longest side. No triangle made.
D
Yes 4+6 > 9 A triangle will be formed.
E
Yes 5 + 5 = 10 which is greater than 9. A triangle will be formed.
