If the first roll is a 4, the possibilities to add less than 8 are that the second cube roll is 1, 2 or 3.

These are 3 different events out of 6 possilbe ones, which is 3 / 6 = 1 / 2; i.e. half of times.

Then the answer is the first option: 1 / 2

Answer:  The correct option is (a) one over two.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Jack rolls a number cube twice. We are to find the probability that the sum of the 2 rolls is less than 8 given that he first roll is a 4.

A cube rolls 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. So, the sample space will be

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

That is, n(S) = 6.

Since the first roll is a 4, so the options for the second roll are 1, 2 and 3 so that the sum is less than 8.

Therefore, if 'A' is the event that the sum is less than 4, then

A = {1, 2, 3}.

That is, n(A) = 3.

So, the probability of happening of event A is given by

P(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}.

Thus, the required probability is one over half.

Option (a) is correct.

What are the hypotheses for testing to see if a correlation is statistically significant?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For testing of significance of correlation coefficient denoted by r, we create hypotheses in three ways

They are one tailed, two tailed.  One tailed can be stated as right tailed and also left tailed.

The null hypothesis would normally be as r=0

Verbally we can say this there is no association between the dependent and independent variable (linear)

Against this alternate hypothesis is created as

either r not equal to 0

or r>0 or r<0

If r not equal to 0, we say two tailed hypothesis test

If r>0 is alternate hypothesis, it is right tailed test

If r<0 is alternate hypothesis, then it is left tailed test.
