The problem is that 7^2 is 7*7, and the same for 8^2. The right answer is the square root of 15, or 3.87
Answer: 17/60
Step-by-step explanation:
Change all of the fractions to have a common denominator:
LCM of 10, 12, 15 is 60
You get 12/60, 25/60, and 54/60.
54/60 is what he had at the start, and so you can just subtract what he gave away
54/60-12/60=42/60
42/60-25/60=17/60
17 is a prime number so you cannot simplify the fraction
Answer:
0.1319 or 13.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this using the binomial probability formula.
The fact that "obtaining at least two 6s" requires you to include cases where you would get three and four 6s as well.
Then, we can set the equation as follows:
P(X≥x) = ∑(k=x to n) C(n k) p^k q^(n-k)
n=4, x=2, k=2
when x=2 (4 2)(1/6)^2(5/6)^4-2 = 0.1157
when x=3 (4 3)(1/6)^3(5/6)^4-3 = 0.0154
when x=4 (4 4)(1/6)^4(5/6)^4-4 = 0.0008
Add them up, and you should get 0.1319 or 13.2% (rounded to the nearest tenth)
