A red die is tossed and then a green dieis tossed. What is the probability thatthe red die shows a six or the green dieshows a s

mr_godi [17]

Let's call the event of the red die to show a six as event A, and the event of the green die to show a six as event B.

The theoretical probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes. On both dices, we have 6 possible outcomes(the numbers from 1 to 6), with one favourable outcome(the number 6), therefore, the probabilities of those events are:

$P(A)=P(B)=\frac{1}{6}$

Each roll is independent from each other, then, the probability of both events happening simultaneously is given by their product:

$P(A\:and\:B)=P(A)P(B)$

Using the additive rule of probability, we have the following equation for our problem:

$\begin{gathered} P(A\:or\:B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\:and\:B) \\ =P(A)+P(B)-P(A)P(B) \\ =\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{6^2} \\ =\frac{2}{6}-\frac{1}{36} \\ =\frac{12}{36}-\frac{1}{36} \\ =\frac{12-1}{36} \\ =\frac{11}{36} \end{gathered}$

the probability that the red die shows a six or the green die shows a six is 11/36.

I think you mean length times width, which is more simply written as lw.

Need help with equations with variables on both sides, giving 100 points, tysm if you help :) 6 (2x-4) = 8(x +2) A. 3 B. 10 C. 2

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B. 10

C. All real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 (2x-4) = 8(x + 2)

Distribute the numbers outside of the factors:

12x - 24 = 8x + 16

Subtract both sides by '8x'

12x - 8x - 24 = 8x - 8x + 16

4x - 24 = 16

Add '24' to both sides:

4x = 40

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 10. Therefore, <u>B. 10</u> is the correct answer.

3(4p - 2) = -6(1 - 2p)

Distribute the numbers similarly to the example before:

12p - 6 = -6 + 12p

Subtract '12p' from both sides:

12p - 12p -6 = -6 + 12p - 12p

0 -6 = -6

Add '6' to both sides:

0 - 6 + 6 = -6 + 6

0 = 0

Therefore, the solution consists of <u>all real numbers.</u>

A study was conducted to determine whether magnets were effective in treating pain. The values represent measurements of pain us

amm1812

Answer:

Given:

Sham: n= 20, x=0.44, s=1.24,

Magnet:n= 20, x =0.49, s= 0.95

For Sham:

Sample size, n = 20

Sample mean = 0.44

Standard deviation = 1.24

For Magnet:

Sample size = 20

Sample mean = 0.49

Standard deviation = 0.95

The null and alternative hypotheses:

H0: s1²=s2²

H1: s1² ≠ s2²

a) To find the test statistics, use the formula:

$\frac{s1^2}{s2^2}$

$\frac{1.24^2}{0.95^2} = \frac{1.5376}{0.9025} = 1.7037$

Test statistics = 1.7037

b) P-value:

Sham: degrees of freedom $= n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19$

Magnet: degrees of freedom $= n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19$

The critical values:

[Za/2, df1, df2)], [(1 - Za/2), df1, df2]

$f[0.05/2, 19, 19], f[(1 - 0.05/2), 19, 19]$

$f[0.025, 19, 19], f[0.975, 19, 19]$

$(2.526, 0.3958)$

The rejection region:

Reject H0, if F < 0.3958 or if F > 2.526

c) Conclusion:

Since the critical values of test statistic is between (0.3958 < 1.7037 < 2.526), we fail to reject null hypothesis H0.

There is insufficient evidence to to support the claim that those given a sham treatment have reductions that vary more than those treated with magnets
