There are six sides on each die. For each possible score on Die 1, there are six possible scores on Die 2. So the number of possible combinations is 6*6 = 36. 
<span>It follows that if the dice are thrown 36 times, you would expect each combination to come up once. </span>

<span>We therefore simply need to know how many combinations add up to less than 5. (I've interpreted this as not including a total of 5 itself). </span>
<span>These combinations are: 1 and 1, 2 and 1, 1 and 2, 2 and 2, 3 and 1, and 1 and 3 ---> six combinations out of 36. </span>

<span>So you'd expect a sum less than 5 six times. </span>

A biased coin is flipped twice.

Answer:

0.48.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways that a tail lands once:-

Tail + head or

head + tail.

Prob(Tail on one throw) = 0.4

Prob(Head on one throw) = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6.

Prob(Tail first then head) = 0.4 * 0.6 = 0.24

Head then tail has the same probability (0.6*0.4).

So the requred probability = 0.24 + 0.24

= 0.48.

No idea how to graph this
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

the graph will start at y1 and go down 1 and right 2 for every point.

Step-by-step explanation: since the x is negative you know that the graph is going to be negative so from left to right it will be going from top to bottom. next you look at the 1/2 which just states that every point on that line will will be 1 down and two right from the previous point. now you look at the +1 which just says that the graph will cross the y axis a 1.
