A fair die is rolled in a board game to determine how many spaces a player can move on their turn. It has one of the numbers 1,2

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

(a)6 (b)3 (c)0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a fair die with the numbers 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 on each of its faces.

Event A is the event of rolling an even number

Event B is the event of rolling an odd number.

(a)The sample space for the outcomes in this experiment is {1,2,3,4,5,6}

There are 6 outcomes in the sample space.

n(S)=6

(b)

Event A is the event of rolling an even number

Sample space of A = {2,4,6}

There are 3 outcomes in event A.

n(A)=3

(c)The probability of event A

$P(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(S)} =\dfrac{3}{6} =0.5$

P(A) =0.5 is the probability that you choose an even number.

Into how many segments do n points divide a given line segment?

yulyashka [42]

n points would divide a given line into n+1 segments.

Just assume that you have a line and you added a point to that line, this point would divide your line into two segments.
If you add two points to a line, these two points would divide your line into three segments.
So the number of segments is always greater that the number of points by 1.
