I got 30%
60% as a decimal is 0.6
18% as a decimal is 0.18
0.6 times 30% or 0.3 is 0.18

Let the event to win the first game is F and to win the second game is S.

This question is from conditional probability and hence we use the below formula.

P(S/F)=\frac{P(F and S) }{P(F)}

Now, we have been given that

P(F and S)=0.18\\
P(F)=0.60

On substituting these given values in the formula, we get

P(S/F)=\frac{0.18}{0.60} \\
\\
P(S/F)=0.3=30\%

Therefore, the probability for winning the second game is 30%

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 3 on a standard pair of six-sided dice?
salantis [7]

To solve this problem, let us recall that the formula for probability is:

Probability = total number of successful events / total events

 

Where in this case, an event is considered to be successful if the sum is 3 on the pair of six sided dice.

 

First, let us calculate for the total number of events. There are 6 numbers per dice, therefore the total number of combinations is:

total events = 6 * 6 = 36

 

Next, we calculate for the total number of combinations that result in a sum of 3. We can identify that there are only two cases that result in sum of 3. That is:

1st case: first dice rolls 1, second dice rolls 2

2nd case: first dice rolls 2, second dice rolls 1

 

Hence, total number of successful events = 2. Therefore the probability is:

Probability = 2 / 36 = 1 / 18 = 0.0556 = 5.56%

Answer: D. Subtracting 9 from each side

Step-by-step explanation:

Always start with numbers without variables first before doing anything with x. And make sure one side must not equal 0 unless you're doing polynomials.

Use inductive reasoning to describe the pattern. Then find the next two numbers in the pattern. –3, 9, –27, 81, . . .
SashulF [63]
Divide each number by the previous number. You always get -3.
The pattern is to multiply a number by -3 to get the next number.
The next two numbers are -243, 729
