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.

$\begin{matrix}
V=\pi r^2\left(\frac{h}{3}\right)\\\\
108=\pi \left(6\right)^2\left(\frac{h}{3}\right)\\\\
\pi \left(6\right)^2\left(\frac{h}{3}\right)=108\\\\
\pi \left(36\right)\left(\frac{h}{3}\right)=108\\\\
12\pi h=108\\\\
\frac{12\pi h}{12\pi }=\frac{108}{12\pi }\\\\
h=\frac{9}{\pi }\\\\
\mathbf{h\approx 2.86\:units}
