Melissa rolls 2 fair dice and adds the results from each. Work out the probability of getting a total of 12
1 answer:
The probability of getting a total of 12 is 1/36
Further explanation:
When two fair-dices are rolled, and the total outcomes are 36.
Which means that our sample space has 36 elements
Let A be the event that the sum of both dice are 12
Only one outcome from the sample space sums up to 12
A = {(6,6)}
So,
=1/36
The probability of getting a total of 12 is 1/36

Answer: First Option
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder is:
Where d is the diameter of the cylinder and h is the height.
Notice that the term d is squared. This means that to increase the volume of a cylinder it is more efficient to increase its diameter as well. Therefore, look for the cylinder with the largest diameter among the options.
The first cylinder is 90 ft in diameter and 40 ft in height and its volume is
You can verify that it is the tank that has the highest volume
