If you roll 5 dice what is the probability of getting exactly 3 dices with 4 and two something other than 4

When you roll a die, you get 4 with probabiliy 1/6 and something other than 4 with probability 5/6.

You want to get 4 three times, this happens with probability (1/6)^3.

You want to get something other than 4 two times, this happens with probability (5/6)^2.

Finally, we have to count all the combinations of three rolls ending in 4 and two rolls ending in something other than 4. For example, you might have

44NN4

4N4N4

N44N4

(where '4' represents a roll ending in 4 and 'N' represents a roll ending in something other than 4)

The number of different combinations is given by the binominal coefficient (5 3), because choosing the roll that must end in 4 automatically fixes also those that won't end in 4:

\displaystyle \binom{5}{3}=\dfrac{5!}{3!2!}=\dfrac{5\times 4\times 3\times 2}{3\times 2\times 2}=10

So, the final anwer is

10\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^3\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2

Hi :) how to do question 7 ?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that the equation of a circle is written this way :

(x-a)²+(y-b)²=r² where (x,y) are the coordinates of the cercle's points and (a,b) the coordinates of the cercle's center and r the radius .

Our task is to khow the values of a and b :

  • We khow that the center is lying on the line 3x+2y=16⇒ 2y=-3x+16⇒ y= \frac{-3}{2}x+8  
  • We khow that the points P and Q are two points in the cercle
  • Let Ω be the center of this cercle
  • we can notice that : PΩ AND QΩ are both equal to the radius ⇒ PΩ=QΩ= r
  • So let's write the expression of this distance using vectors KHOWING THAT Ω(a,b)
  • Vector PΩ(a-4,b-6) and Vector QΩ(a-8,b-2)
  • PΩ=\sqrt{(a-4)^{2}+(b-6)^{2}  } and QΩ=\sqrt{(a-8)^{2}+(b-2)^{2}   }
  • Let's substitute a by x and b by y
  • PΩ=QΩ we substitute each distance by its expression
  • After simplyfying the expressions we get finally : -12+8x-8y=0
  • now we have -12x +8x-8y=0 and the line equation 3x+2y-16=0
  • these are simultanious equations so after solving them we get x=3.8 wich is approximatively 4 and y=2
  • we substitute a by 4 and y by 2 in PΩ to get the radius
  • we get r = \sqrt{(4-4)^{2}+(2-6)^{2}  } = 4
  • so r²= 16
  • then the equation is : (x-4)²+(y-2)²=16
