Rolling two die, how many ways can a five show up on at least one die

1 answer:

3 0

Total possibilities would be:

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

You want 5 on at-least one, so mark 5th column & 5th raw.
There are 6 in both lines with 1 common = (5,5)

In short, Your Answer would be 11

Hope this helps!

What is the sum of the roots of the polynomial shown below? f(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 - 11x-12

svp [43]

Answer:

Sum of the roots of the polynomial $x^{3}+2 x^{2}-11 x-12 \text { is }-2$

Solution:

The general form of cubic polynomial is $a x^{3}+b x^{2}+c x+d=0$ ---- (1)

If we have any cubic polynomial $a x^{3}+b x^{2}+c x+d=0$ having roots $\alpha , \beta , \theta$

Sum of roots $\alpha + \beta + \theta$ = $\frac{-b}{a}$ ---(2)

From question given that,

$x^{3}+2 x^{2}-11 x-12$ --- (3)

On comparing equation (1) and (3), we get a = 1, b = 2, c = -11 and d = -12

Hence the sum of roots using eqn 2 is given as,

= $\frac{-2}{1}$

= -2

Hence the sum of the roots of the polynomial $x^{3}+2 x^{2}-11 x-12 \text { is }-2$

What is the value of x?

erica [24]

Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x - 4) + (3x + 5) + (2x + 11) = 180°

Combine like terms:

7x + 12 = 180

Subtract 12 on both sides:

7x = 168

Divide 7 on both sides:

x = 24

According to a study conducted by the Gallup Organization, the the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly is 0.10. A rand

notsponge [240]

Answer: 0.1457

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion.

Given: The proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly is 0.10.

i.e. p= 0.10

Sample size : n= 1100

Sample proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly = $\hat{p}=\dfrac{121}{1100}=0.11$

We assume that the population is normally distributed

Now, the probability that the sample proportion is more than 0.11:

$P(\hat{p}>0.11)=P(\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}>\dfrac{0.11-0.10}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.10(0.90)}{1100}}})\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{0.01}{0.0090453})\ \ \ [\because z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}} ]\\\\=P(z>1.1055)\\\\=1-P(z\leq1.055)\\\\=1-0.8543=0.1457\ \ \ [\text{using z-table}]$

Hence, the probability that the sample proportion is more than 0.11 = 0.1457
