The probability that you roll a 5 on a six-sided die is start fraction one over six end fraction . The probability that you flip

a coin that lands on heads is start fraction one over two end fraction. The probability that you roll a 5 on a six-sided die and you flip a coin that lands on heads is start fraction one over 12 end fraction. What is the probability of flipping a coin and it landing on heads, given that you rolled a 5 on a six-sided die? Are these two events independent?

I am not sure about the probability but I cant tell you these events are independent because u don't need to roll a five for a coin to land on heads

Let:

F - <span>5 on a six-sided die,</span>
H - coin lands on heads

We also know that:

P(F)=\dfrac{1}{6}\qquad\qquad P(H)=\dfrac{1}{2}\qquad\qquad P(F\cap H)=\dfrac{1}{12}

Calculate:

P(H|F)=\dfrac{P(F\cap H)}{P(F)}=\dfrac{\frac{1}{12}}{\frac{1}{6}}=\dfrac{1\cdot6}{12\cdot1}=\dfrac{6}{12}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{2}}

In this case events are independent when:

P(H|F)=P(H)

Both probabilities equals \dfrac{1}{2}, so H and F are independent.

A spinner has 4 equal sections. after 12 spins, the spinner landed on section a 4 times, section b 5 times, section c 2 times, a
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The Experimental Probability of the spinner stopping on Section A is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of time spinner landed on section A = 4

Number of time spinner landed on section B = 5

Number of time spinner landed on section C = 2

Number of time spinner landed on section D = 1

Total Number of spins = 12

Probability=\frac{Number\:of\;Favorable\:outcome}{Number\:of\:total\;outcome}=\frac{4}{12}=\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, The Experimental Probability of the spinner stopping on Section A is 1/3.
