Answer:
a = 112
Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,
s = 7
b = 13
c = (-24)
Let's solve for a now.





Hope this helps you.

Answer:
a) 32
b) 
Step-by-step Explanation:
Initial pattern has 7 sticks.
Second one has 7+5 sticks.
Third has 7+5+5 sticks.

Sixth has 7+5+5+5+5+5=32 sticks.
$n^{th}$ has $7+ 5(n-1)$ sticks.
Answer:
a) S = {1, 2, 3}
b) P(odd number) = 
c) No
d) Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The sample space is the set of all possible outcomes. By definition, the elements of a set should not be repeated. Hence, the sample space S = {1, 2, 3}
However, the sample is not equiprobable because each element has different probabilities.
b) P(odd number) = 
Note that the odd numbers are 1 (on three faces) and 3 (on one face).
c) The fact the die has been biased does not change the possible outcomes. It only changes the probability of getting any given number.
d) Because the 3-face has been loaded, this probability changes. In fact, it is calculated thus:
Let's assume the probability for 1 or 2 is
. Then that of 3 is
(because it is twice the others). The sum of probabilities must be 1.



P(odd number) =
Prob(1) + Prob(3)
=
= 
The size of something. Typically something that is very large.
