Suppose a die is tossed 5 times. what is the probability of getting exactly 2 fours?

Mathematics

Tasya [4]2 years ago

Answer:

the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of obtaining a number that is four = ¹/₆

The probability of obtaining a non 4 number = 1 - ¹/₆ = ⁵/₆

The number of ways 2 fours can be arrange in five numbers = ⁵C₂ = 10 ways

If the die is tossed five times, the probability of the events is calculated as;

P = 10 x (¹/₆)² x (⁵/₆)³

P = 10 x (¹/₃₆) x  (¹²⁵/₂₁₆)

P = 10 x 0.02778 x 0.5787

P = 0.16

Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16

1)

here, we do the left-hand-side

\bf [sin(x)+cos(x)]^2+[sin(x)-cos(x)]^2=2
\\\\\\\
[sin^2(x)+2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^2(x)]\\\\+~ [sin^2(x)-2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^2(x)]
\\\\\\
2sin^2(x)+2cos^2(x)\implies 2[sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)]\implies 2[1]\implies 2

2)

here we also do the left-hand-side

\bf \cfrac{2-cos^2(x)}{sin(x)}=csc(x)+sin(x)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2-[1-sin^2(x)]}{sin(x)}\implies \cfrac{2-1+sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}\implies \cfrac{1+sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{sin(x)}+\cfrac{sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}\implies csc(x)+sin(x)

3)

here, we do the right-hand-side

\bf \cfrac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}=\cfrac{csc(x)-tan(x)}{sec(x)+cot(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{csc(x)-tan(x)}{sec(x)+cot(x)}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{sin(x)}-\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}}{\frac{1}{cos(x)}-\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{\underline{sin(x)cos(x)}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{sin(x)cos(x)}}{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}\implies \cfrac{cos(x)-sin^2(x)}{sin(x)+cos^2(x)}

Can some one help me with 1,3,and 5
FrozenT [24]

1. 2/100 or 1/50, as 0.02 is equal to 2 hundreths. Simplifying gets you 1/50

3. 1/2 or 50/100, as 0.50 is equal to 0.5 which is equal to 50 hundreths. Simplify to get 1/2

5. 88/100 or 44/50 , as 0.88 is equal to 88 hundreths. After simplifying, you get 44/50

Depending on your teacher, you may be told to not simplify. It depends
