You can see the three diagram attached. Each link is labeled with the probability: you have probability 1/6 that a six is rolled, and 5/6 that it is not rolled.


To answer the questions, find the path that brings you to the desired outcome, and multiply all the labels you meet.


First question:

To get three sixes, you have to choose the left path at each roll. The probability is always 1/6, so the answer is


\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{6^3}


Second question:

To get no sixes, you have to choose the right path at each roll. The probability is always 5/6, so the answer is


\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} = \frac{5^3}{6^3}


Third question:

To get exactly one six, it can either be the first, second or third roll.


In all cases, you have to choose the left path once and the right path twice: left-right-right mean that you get the six in the first roll, right-left-right means that you get the six in the second roll, right-right-left means that you get the six in the third roll.


In every case, the left turn has probability 1/6, and the right turn has probability 5/6. The probability of each combination is thus


\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} = \frac{5^2}{6^3}


And since there are three of these combinations, The answer is


3\frac{5^2}{6^3}


Fourth question:

Since the question suggests to use what we already achieved, let's do it: having at least one six is the complementary event of having no sixes at all. If an event has probability p, its complementary has probability 1-p. So, since the probability of no sixes is known, the probability of at least one six is


1 - \frac{5^3}{6^3}

Answer:

6\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, so basically I'm pretty sure that you add all of them together and put it as a fraction over 3 so basically  \frac{20}{3} then simplify it into 6\frac{2}{3}

Find radius and center
Sliva [168]

Answer:

(0,0) and r=3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the radius and center rewrite the equation in vertex form (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2 = r^2.

First move x and y to the other side so they have positive signs. Then move 9 across to the other side too.

-9 = -y^2 -x^2\\x^2 + y^2 -9 = 0\\x^2 + y^2 = 9

Here you can see there is no h or k meaning h=0 and k=0. The radius is the square root of 9 which is 3.
