Answer:

x>3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the inequation 3(8-4x) < 6(x - 5)

Dividing both sides in the above in equation by 3 we get

(8-4x)<2(x-5)

Distributing 2 over (x-5)

(8-4x)<2x-10

8-4x<2x-10

adding 10 and 4x on both hand sides we get

8+10<2x+4x

18<6x

Dividing both sides by 6 we get

3<x

Hence the solution to the given in equation is x>3

By definition of conditional probability,

$P(X_1=4\text{ or }X_2=4\mid X_1+X_2=7)=\dfrac{P((X_1=4\text{ or }X_2=4)\text{ and }X_1+X_2=7)}{P(X_1+X_2=7)}$

$=\dfrac{P((X_1=4\text{ and }X_1+X_2=7)\text{ or }(X_2=4\text{ and }X_1+X_2=7))}{P(X_1+X_2=7)}$

Assuming a standard 6-sided fair die,

if $X_1=4$ , then $X_1+X_2=7$ means $X_2=3$ ; otherwise,
if $X_2=4$ , then $X_1=3$ .

Both outcomes are mutually exclusive with probability $\frac1{36}$ each, hence total probability $\frac2{36}=\frac1{18}$ .

Of the 36 possible outcomes, there are 6 ways to sum the integers 1-6 to get 7:

(1, 6), (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 3), (5, 2), (6, 1)

and so a sum of 7 occurs $\frac6{36}=\frac16$ of the time.

Then the probability we want is

$P(X_1=4\text{ or }X_2=4\mid X_1+X_2=7)=\dfrac{\frac1{18}}{\frac16}=\frac13$
