Answer:

1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

We are considering that we have 2 dices with 6 faces each (so, the probability to gettig any face in any dish is 1/6). To get an 11, we only have two ways to obtain it:

Dice 1= 6 and Dice 2 =5

or

Dice 1= 5 and Dice 2 =6

So, the probability of the event is given as:

P(Dice1=5 ∧ Dice2=6) ∪ P(Dice1=6 ∧ Dice2=5) = P(Dice1=5) x P(Dice2=6) + P(Dice1=6) x P(Dice2=5) = 1/6 x 1/6 + 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36 + 1/36 = 2/36 = 1/18.

As 1/18 = 0,055, and 0,055 > 0,05, we consider the event as not significative (according to the definition of significance in the sentence).

Answer:

When you throw a dice, the total number of options that you can get is the product of the number of options for each dice, this means that the total number of combinations is:

c = 6*6 = 36 combinations.

Now, the combinations where the dice add to 11 are:

5 in one dice and 6 in the other.

6 in one dice and 5 in the other.

so out of 36 combinations, we have 2 options where we have an 11.

then the probability is the combinations that add to 11 divided by the total number of combinations:

p = 2/36 = 1/18 = 0.056

the probability is greater than 0.05, so it is significant.

Bernie has $16000 invested, part at 3% and the remainder at 5%. If the yearly interest on each investment is the same, how much
Snowcat [4.5K]
If the interest is the same for both accounts then:

.03x=.05(16000-x)

.03x=800-.05x

.08x=800

x=10000, since the interest is the same for both we can just double the interest from one investment to find the total interest earned each year...

.03(10000)2=$600.00

Help!! Number 39 please

Keep in mind you would need a total of 120 ounces.
A: Corn cereal comes in 12 oz boxes and the person used 5 boxes, thus taking 60 oz away from the total, leaving 60 oz. Next, you’d have to divide 60 oz by 4 (since that’s how many boxes of wheat cereal were used). Resulting in a wheat box being worth 15 ounces!!
B: 12c+ 15w= 120 (c= corn cereal, w= wheat cereal)
C: 5 boxes of corn cereal with 4 boxes of wheat cereal; 0 boxes of corn cereal with 8 boxes of wheat cereal; 10 boxes of corn cereal with 0 boxes of wheat cereal.
