An experiment consist of rolling 3 fair dice (1 red die, a blue die, and a white die) and recording the number rolled on each di

e. Assume that the dice are fair, so that all outcomes are equally likely.
1. What probability should be assigned to each outcome?
2. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers rolled is 6?
3. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers rolled is at most 5?

In 1, t<span>here are 6 outcomes for each die, so for three dice, the total combination is 6 x 6 x 6 = 216 outcomes. Hence, t</span><span>he probability of any individual outcome is 1/216 </span>

The outcomes that will add up to 6 are 
<span>1+1+4 </span>
<span>1+4+1 </span>
<span>4+1+1 </span>
<span>1+2+3 </span>
<span>1+3+2 </span>
<span>2+1+3 </span>
<span>2+3+1 </span>
<span>3+1+2 </span>
<span>3+2+1 </span>
<span>2+2+2 </span>

<span>Hence the probability is </span><span>10/216 </span>

In 3, the minimum sum of the three dice is 3. so we start with this 
<span>P(n = 3) </span>
<span>1+1+1 ; </span><span>1/216 </span>

<span>P(n = 4) </span>
<span>1+1+2 </span>
<span>1+2+1 </span>
<span>2+1+1 ; </span><span>3/216 </span>

<span>P(n = 5) </span>
<span>1+1+3 </span>
<span>1+3+1 </span>
<span>3+1+1 </span>
<span>1+2+2 </span>
<span>2+1+2 </span>
<span>2+2+1; </span><span>6/216 

The sum in 3 is 10/216 or 5/108</span>

Find the value of 2^-3*3^-2
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

2^{-3}\cdot 3^{-2}

2^-3=\frac{1}{2^3}

3^-2=\frac{1}{3^2}

\frac{1}{2^3}*\frac{1}{3^2}

\frac{1*1}{2^3*3^2}

2^3*3^2=72

=\frac{1}{72}

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Which of the following represents the factored form of f(x) = x3 − 81x?
sladkih [1.3K]
You're original equation has a -81, so the factored form will have to have a positive and negative multiplying one another to achieve that...

f(x) = x(x + 9)(x - 9)

Its super duper easy but im having some trouble<br> so can someone help me?
Klio2033 [76]

together = add

add the fractions

3 7/10 + 5 9/10

add the whole numbers first

3+5=8

add the fractions

7/10+9/10= 16/10

8 16/10

reduce 16/10 divide by 2

16/2= 8

10/2= 5

8 8/5

whole number changes to 9

8-5=3

denominator stays the same

9 3/5

Answer:

9 3/5
