B is the answer I think but so t take my word for it
Answer:
D is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to select which of the options is correct.
The correct option is the option D
Since the die is unfair, we expect that the probability of each of the numbers turning up
will not be equal.
However, we should also expect that if we add the chances of all the numbers occurring together, then the total probability should be equal to 1. But this does not work in this case;
In this case, adding all the probabilities together, we have;
1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/2
= 5(1/12) + 1/2 = 5/12 + 1/2 = 11/12
11/12 is not equal to 1 and thus the probability distribution cannot be correct
Answer:
37. {-1, -1}.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll solve the first one . The other can be solved in a similar way. We can use the method of elimination.
x1 - x2 = 0
3x1 - 2x2 = -1
We can multiply the first equation by -2. We then have an equation containing + 2x2 so when we add this to the second equation the 2x2 will be eliminated
So the first equation becomes:
-2x1 + 2x2 = 0 Bring down the second equation:
3x1 - 2x2 = -1 Now adding, we get:
x1 + 0 = -1
so x1 = -1.
Now we substitute this value of x1 in the original first equation:
-1 - x2 = 0
-1 = x2
x2 = -1.
So the solution set is {-1, -1}.
If there are more than 2 equations you can use a combination of substitutions and eliminations.
