Answer:

a) \frac{5}{6}

b) \frac{1}{6}

c) \frac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total possible outcomes when a dice is rolled twice

(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)

here total number of possible outcomes is 36

now,

P (Event ) = \frac{\textup{Number of favorable outcomes of an Event}}{\textup{Total possible outcomes}}  

a) P( die shows a different number on each toss )

Favorable outcomes = (1,2) , (1,3) , (1,4) , (1,5) , (1,6) , (2,1) , (2,3) , (2,4) , (2,5) , (2,6), (3,1) , (3,2) ,  (3,4) , (3,5) , (3,6) , (4,1) , (4,2) , (4,3) ,  (4,5) , (4,6) , (5,1) , (5,2) , (5,3) , (5,4) ,  (5,6) , (6,1) , (6,2) , (6,3) , (6,4) , (6,5)

number of Favorable outcomes = 30

thus,

P( die shows a different number on each toss ) = \frac{30}{36}=\frac{5}{6}

b) P( The sum of the dots showing is greater than or equal to 10 )

Favorable outcomes = (4,6) , (5,5) , (5,6) , (6,4) , (6,5) , (6,6)

number of Favorable outcomes = 6

P( The sum of the dots showing is greater than or equal to 10 )

= \frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}

c) P(  total score is less than 4 )

Favorable outcomes = (1,1) , (1,2) , (1,3) , (2,1)

number of Favorable outcomes = 4

P(  total score is less than 4 ) = \frac{4}{36}=\frac{1}{9}

MrRa [10]

Answer:

676 assuming the population is 3800 in 2019. If it's a different year then change t.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(t) = P_{0} (1+r)^t \\\\P(6) = 3800(1-.25)^6 \\=P(6) = 3800(.75)^6\\=676
