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}

If a statistic used to estimate a parameter is such that the mean of its sampling distribution is equal to the actual value of t
zimovet [89]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. <span>If a statistic used to estimate a parameter is such that the mean of its sampling distribution is equal to the actual value of the parameter, then it is a biased estimator. Hope this answers the question.

Duru has an ice-cream stand, which she opens on days that are forecasted to be warmer than 10°C.
Amanda [17]

Answer:

P(c(t)) =  20t-120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P(n) = 2n - 20

C(t) = 50 + 10(t - 10)

Required

Determine P(C(t))

The implication of the question is to solve for P(C(t))

Given that

C(t) = 50 + 10(t - 10) and P(n) = 2n - 20

P(c(t)) would be

P(c(t)) = 2(50 + 10(t - 10)) - 20

P(c(t)) = 2(50 + 10t - 100) - 20

Collect Like Terms

P(c(t)) = 2(50  - 100+ 10t) - 20

P(c(t)) = 2(-50+ 10t) - 20

Open Bracket

P(c(t)) = -100+ 20t - 20

Collect Like Terms

P(c(t)) =  20t-100 - 20

P(c(t)) =  20t-120

The dialogue of a square is X units what is the area of the square in terms of X
LenaWriter [7]

The area of the square in terms of x unit is x²/ 2

<h3>Diagonal of a square</h3>

The expression for the diagonal of a square is written as'

d^2=s^2+s^2

Where

  • s² is the area of the square
  • d² is the diagonal of the same square

But from the given question we have that the diagonal of the said square is 'x'

Now, let's substitute the values into the expression of the diagonal given above,

d^2=s^2+s^2

d² = s² + s²

We have,

x² = s² + s²

Collect and add like terms

x² = 2s²

But we know that s² represents the area of the square

So,

x² = 2 × area

Make 'area' subject of formula

Area = x²/ 2

Now, we can say that the area of the square in terms of x units is x²/2

Therefore, the area of the square in terms of x unit is x²/ 2
