In order for a game to be fair, both players must have the same chance of winning. Let's examinate the four games:

First game:

First player wins with 1,2,3, second player wins with 4,5,6. Both have 3 chances of winning, with a probability of 1/6 each. So, both players have a winning chance of 3/6=1/2, and thus the game is fair.

Second game:

First player wins with heads side up, second player wins with tails side up. Both have 1 chances of winning, with a probability of 1/2 each, and thus the game is fair.

Third game:

First player wins with 2,4,6, second player wins with 1,3,5. Both have 3 chances of winning, with a probability of 1/6 each. So, both players have a winning chance of 3/6=1/2, and thus the game is fair.

Fourth game:

First player wins with 3,4,5 or 6, second player wins with 1 or 2. Player 1 has four chances of winning, with a probability of 1/6 each, whereas player 2 has 2 chances of winning, with a probability of 1/6 each. So, player 1 has a winning chance of 4/6=2/3, while player 2 has a winning chance of 2/6=1/3, and thus the game is not fair.

Need an answer for both plez.

Answer:

(2, 13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they both equal y, you can equal them to each other.

8x - 3 = 2x + 9

Subtract 2x from both sides.

6x - 3 = 9

Add 3 to both sides.

6x = 12

Now divide 6 on both sides.

x = 2

Now that we have found x, we need to find y. Just plug in x to the equations.

y = 2(2) + 9

y = 4 + 9

y = 13

Now, if the next equal has the same y, then both are true.

8(2) -3 = y

16-3=y

13 = y

So therefor, both x and y are true.
