Zaid has a peculiar pair of four-sided dice. When he rolls the dice, the probability of any particular outcome is proportional t

o the sum of the results of each die, i-e, for any outcome (i, j), 1 i, j 4, P (i, j) = (i + j) p, where p is the constant of proportionality. All outcomes that result in a particular sum are equally likely. (a) What is the probability of the sum being even? (b) What is the probability of Bob rolling a 2 and a 3, in any order?

Answer:   a) \bold{\dfrac{3}{16}}     b) \bold{\dfrac{1}{36}}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

a) In order to get an even number, you have the 3 different scenarios:

1) Even, Even, Even, Even     \dfrac{3\times 3\times 3\times 3}{6^4} \quad = \dfrac{3^4}{6^4}\quad =\dfrac{1}{16}

2) Even, Even, Odd, Odd   \dfrac{3\times 3\times 3\times 3}{6^4} \quad = \dfrac{3^4}{6^4}\quad =\dfrac{1}{16}

3) Odd, Odd, Odd, Odd   \dfrac{3\times 3\times 3\times 3}{6^4} \quad = \dfrac{3^4}{6^4}\quad =\dfrac{1}{16}

<em>Order doesn't matter</em>

Add them up to get your answer: \dfrac{1}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{3}{16}}

b) If one die is a 2 and another is a 3 and the other two dice can be any number, then you have 1 possibility for a 2, 1 possibility for a 3, and 6 possibilities for each of the other two dice.

\dfrac{1\times 1\times 6\times 6}{6^4}\quad =\dfrac{1}{6^2}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{1}{36}}

central angle of a sector is 72° and the sector has an area of 16.2(pie) ft^2. what is the radius of the circle?
Cloud [144]
Sector area = (central angle / 360) * PI * radius^2
sector area = (72 / 360) * PI * radius^2
radius^2 = sector area / [(72 / 360) * PI]
radius^2 = 16.2 * PI / [(1 / 5) * PI]
radius^2 = 16.2 / .2
radius^2 = 81
radius = 9

When Θ = 5 pi over 6, what are the reference angle and the sign values for sine, cosine, and tangent? Θ' = negative pi over 6; s
timama [110]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

\theta=\frac{5\pi }{6}

We need to find reference angle and signs of sinФ, cosФ and tanФ

We know that \theta=\frac{5\pi }{6}radians is equal to 150°

and 150° is in 2nd quadrant.

So, Ф is in 2nd quadrant.

And In 2nd quadrant sine is positive, while cos and tan are negative

The reference angle Ф' is found by: π - Ф

=> Ф = 5π/6

so, Reference angle Ф' = π - 5π/6

Ф' = 6π - 5π/6

Ф' = π/6

So, Option C Θ' = pi over 6; sine is positive, cosine and tangent are negative is correct.

URGENT ANSWER NOW In △ABC, A=59∘, a=20, and c=21. What are the two possible values for angle C to the nearest tenth of a degree?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The two possible values of C are 64.2° and 115.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

* In ΔABC

- a, b, c are the lengths of its 3 sides, where

# a is opposite to angle A

# b is opposite to angle B

# c is opposite to angle C

- m∠A = 59°

- a = 20

- c = 21

* To find the distance m∠C we can use the sin Rule

- In any triangle the ratio between the length of each side

 to the measure of each opposite angle are equal

- c/sinC = a/sinA = b/sinB

* Lets use it to find the m∠C

∵ 21/sinC = 20/sin(59)

∴ sin(C) = 21 × sin(59) ÷ 20 = 0.9000256657

∴ m∠C = sin^-1(0.9000256657)  = 64.16144°

∴ m∠C = 64.2°

∵ The value of sin(C) is positive

∴ Angle C may be in the first quadrant (acute angle)

  or in the second quadrant (obtuse angle)

∴ The other measure of ∠C = 180 - 64.2 = 115.8

* The two possible values of C are 64.2° and 115.8°
