\frac{(15 * 0.8) + x}{30} = 0.9
12+x=27
x=15

They have alrady won 12 games (80% of 15) and need to win 15 more. 

Check:
\frac{15+12}{30}=\frac{27}{30} = 90\%

What is the probability of rolling a 3 on two consecutive rolls of a fair 6-sided die?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

\frac{1}{36} chance

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time you roll a die, you have a \frac{1}{6} chance of rolling a 3. It's even rarer to roll two 3s in a row, and to find a consecutive probability, we have to multiply the two probabilities. In this case, both probabilities are \frac{1}{6}.

\frac{1}{6}\cdot\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{36}

Hope this helped!

 what is 16/10 as a mixed number in simplest form. I don't get it?
Ivenika [448]
16/10 as a mixed number is 1 6/10.

I got this answer by finding out how many times 10 goes into 16, evenly. I got 1, and put that as a whole number. 6 was leftover, so I put that for the numerator. Then, I kept the denominator same, which was 10.


1 6/10 simplified is 1 3/5.

I got this answer by finding out what number goes both into 10 and 6, evenly. The GCF, or Greatest Common Factor, was 2. I divided 6 by 2 and 10 by 2. I then got 3 and 5.
3 was the numerator, and 5 is the denominator.

Again, 16/10 in simplest form is 1 3/5.

Assuming boys and girls are equally​ likely, find the probability of a couple having a baby girl when their sixth child is​ born
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:  The required probability of having 6th girl is 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that boys and girls are equally likely.

We are to find the probability of a couple having a baby girl when their sixth child is​ born, given that the first five children were all girls.

Since the events of having a boy and a girl are independent of each other, so

the probability of having 6th girl dose not depend on the birth of the first five girls.

We know that there are only two possible cases (either a boy or girl will born).

So, sample space, S = {G, B}  and the event E of having a girl is, E = {G}.

That is, n(S) = 2 and n(E) = 1.

Therefore, the probability of event E is given by

P(E)=\dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5.

Thus, the required probability of having 6th girl is 0.5.
