If two dice are rolled one time, find the probability of getting: a sum grater than 10\

1 answer:

4 0

If two dices are rolled once, you would have a total number of 6*6=36 possibilities.
To get a sum greater than 10:
A) one of your dices could be showing a 5, the other a 6. That’s two possibilities. Dice A being the 5 or dice B being the 5.
B) both of your dices could be showing 6s.
That’s one possibility.
So your overall possibility to get a sum greater than 10 is (1+2)/36 3/36=1/12
One twelfth.

$y=-1.5 x^{2} +6 \\ \\ x=-3 \Rightarrow y=-1.5*(-3)^2+6 =-1.5*9+6=-13.5+6=-7.5\\ \\x=-2 \Rightarrow y=-1.5*(-2)^2+6 =-1.5*4+6=-6+6=0\\ \\x=-1 \Rightarrow y=-1.5*(-1)^2+6 =-1.5*1+6=-1.5+6=-4.5\\ \\x=0 \Rightarrow y=-1.5*0^2+6 =6$

$x=1 \Rightarrow y=-1.5*(1)^2+6 =-1.5+6=-4.5\\ \\ x= 2 \Rightarrow y=-1.5*2^2+6 =-1.5*4+6=-6+6=0\\ \\x=3 \Rightarrow y=-1.5*3^2+6 =-1.5*9+6=-13.5+6=-7.5$
