Roll two 6-sided dice and examine their sum.

1 answer:

5 0

a) How long will it take to roll "snake-eyes" (a pair of ones)?
P(a pair of ones) = 1/36
Therefore, it takes 36 rolls to roll "snake-eyes".

b) What is the probability of rolling a sum of 7 on the first roll?
P(a sum of 7) = 6/36 = 1/6
P(a sum of 7 on the first roll) = 1/6

c) What is the probability of rolling a sum of 7 on the fourth roll?
P(a sum of 7 on the fourth roll) = (5/6)^3 * 1/6 = 125/1296

d) What is the probability of rolling a sum of 7 by the fourth roll?
P(a sum of 7 by the fourth roll) = 1/6 + (5/6) * 1/6 + (5/6)^2 * 1/6 + (5/6)^3 * 1/6 = 1/6 + 5/36 + 25/216 + 125/1296 = 671/1296

e) What is the probability of it taking more than 10 rolls to roll the sum of 7?
P(more than 10 rolls to roll the sum of 7) = 1 - P(no sum of 7 in the first 10 rolls) = 1 - (5/6)^10 = 1 - 0.1615 = 0.8385

3(x^2+4x)+4(y^2-2y)=32

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

3x^2 + 12x + 4y^2 - 8y = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x^2+4x)+4(y^2-2y)=32

At first we have to break the parenthesis to get the variables in normal position. To break those, we have to multiply each with the help of algebraic expression:

or, (3*x^2) + (3 × 4x) + (4 × y^2) - (4 × 2y) = 32

or, 3x^2 + 12x + 4y^2 - 8y = 32

Since the equation does not have anything to add or deduct, therefore, it is the answer.
