Answer:

The probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is \frac{1}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If you roll two fair dice repeatedly.

To find : What is the probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 ?

Solution :

When two dice are rolled the outcomes are

(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)

(2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4,1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)

Total number of outcomes = 36

Favorable outcome get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is (1,3) ,(2,2) and (3,1) = 3

The probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is

P=\frac{3}{36}

P=\frac{1}{12}

Therefore, The probability that you will get a sum of 4 before you get a sum of 5 is \frac{1}{12}

What is the set of all solutions to the equation \sqrt{x + 2}= {-x} x+2 ​ =−xsquare root of, x, plus, 2, end square root, equals
NARA [144]

Answer:

x = 2 or x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\sqrt{x + 2}= {-x}

Required

Find the possible values fo x

\sqrt{x + 2}= {-x}

Square both sides

( \sqrt{x + 2})^2= ({-x})^2

x + 2 = x^2

Equate to 0

x^2 - x - 2 = 0

Expand

x^2 + x -2x - 2 = 0

Factorize:

x(x + 1) - 2(x + 1) = 0

(x -2)(x +1) = 0

Split:

x - 2 = 0 or x + 1 = 0

x = 2 + 0 or x = 0-1

x = 2 or x = -1
