Answer:

0.003

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A roulette wheel consists of 38 numbers 1 to 36, 0, and double 0.

Smith bets that the outcome will be one of the numbers 1 through 12.

To find: probability that Smith will lose his first 5 bets

Solution:

Probability refers to chances of occurrence of some event.

Probability = Number of favourable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

Total number outcomes = 38

As Smith bets that the outcome will be one of the numbers 1 through 12, number of favourable outcomes is equal to 12.

So,

probability that Smith will loss his first bet = \frac{12}{38}=\frac{6}{19}

Therefore,

Probability that Smith will lose his first 5 bets = (\frac{6}{19} )^5=0.003

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the range is written as (min y value, max y value)

the domain is written as (min x value, max x value)

question 6

the min y value on the picture is -3, while the arrows point upward, so the max is infinity, so the domain is [-3,∞), with a bracket on -3 because -3 is included

[-3,∞)

question 7

the min x value is the leftmost point, which is at x = -3, while the max is the rightmost point at x = 3, and both are included in the domain so there should be brackets on both

[-3,3]

question 8

the arrow on the left points to the left and up infinitely, so the min is -∞, the arrow on the right points to the right and up infinitely, so the max x value is ∞

(-∞,∞)

question 9

the min value is the bottommost point at y = -2, and the arrow points upward infinitely so the max y value is ∞

[-2,∞)

question 10

the arrow on the left points to the left infinitely so the min x value is -∞, the arrow on the right points to the right infinitely so the max x value is ∞

(-∞,∞)
