9,​ 10, 11, 12. Because there are 11​ outcomes, he​ reasoned, the probability of rolling a three must be one eleventh

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

For 2 dice, we have 36 possibles outcomes:

D₁ = {1,2,3,4,5,6}

D₂ = {1,2,3,4,5,6}

U = ({1,1};{1,2};{1,3};...;{2,1};{2,2};...;{6,6})

This way, it's 6 for D₁ and 6 for D₂, 6.6 = 36

The possible 3 that might appear when rolling a pair of dice would be

{1,2} and {2,1}, so, 2.

The probability of rolling 3 is 2/36 = 1/18

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

If you add 5 to a, it will be greater than b

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if you have the inequality y<x+5 a=x b=y so by adding 5 to a meaning x 5+a will still be greater than b(y) with out changing the sign or inequality.
