Answer:

There’s only one way to get 12 when 2 dice are tossed, both have to equal 6. There are 6 ways tossing a single die can come out (1,2,3,4,5,6), so if you toss dice, the second die could have any one of six values with each of the numbers that could result from the first toss (e.g., 1 from die 1 and 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 from die 2). So, considering there are 6 ways to fill each of two slots, there are 6 x 6 = 36 possible outcomes of tossing two dice. Only one of them equals 12, so p(12 given 2 dice tossed) = 1/36 = 0.02777777777778.

Each contestant in the Hunger Games must be trained to compete. Suppose that the time it takes to train a contestant has mean 5

LiRa [457]

Answer:

11.51% probability that it will take less than 450 days to train all the contestants.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
