Answer:

1. 1/6

2. 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that the sum of the two die is 6 and B be an event that the green die is either 4 or 1.

The conditional probability will be given by P (A/B) = P (A∩B)/ P (B).

Now the total sample space consists of 36 outcomes .

And to find (A∩B) we need to find the outcomes in which green die is either 4 or 1 and the sum of the two die is 6.

So when green is 1 red must be 5

So when green is 4 red must be 2

So there are two ways in which green die is either 4 or 1 and the sum of the two die is 6.

Therefore the probability of (A∩B)= P (A∩B)= 2/36= 1/18

Now we find the probability of green die having 4 or 1

So when green is 4 red can have all the numbers from 1- 6

And when green is 1 red can have all the numbers from 1- 6

The total number would be 12 .

So probability of green die having 1 or 4 is given by = P (B)= 12/36

Now the conditional probability = P (A/B) = P (A∩B)/ P (B)=1/18/ 1/3

= 3/18= 1/6

2. Similarly we find the conditional probability of the two die when the red one is 6, given that the sum is 11.

When red is 6 the green must be 5 to get 11. So the probability

=P (A∩B)=  1/36

Now we find the probability of red die having 6 =P(B)= 6/36

Now the conditional probability = P (A∩B)/P(B) =  1/36/ 6/36= 1/6

Lets solve the equation first:
<span> 0.5 – |x – 12| = –0.25
</span>= 1/2 - |x - 12| = -1/4
= 2 - 4<span>|x - 12| = -1
= 4|x - 12| = 3
= |x - 12| = 0.75
positive case, x >= 12
x - 12 = 0.75
x = 12.75
negative case, x < 12
x - 12 = -0.75
x = 11.25
So those are the two solutions.
These apply:
</span>1.) The equation will have no solutions.
2.) A good first step for solving the equation is to subtract 0.5 from both sides of the equation.
<span>3.) A good first step for solving the equation is to split it into a positive case and a negative case.
</span><span>5.) The negative case of this equation is x – 12 = –0.75.</span>
