Which of the following could be the probability distribution for a loaded number cube?

<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

The requirements for a probability distribution are this

  1. The individual probabilities must be between 0 and 1, inclusive of both endpoints. We can say 0 \le p \le 1 where p is an individual probability.
  2. The probabilities must sum to 1.

Condition #1 shown above allows us to rule out choice C due to -0.10 not being in the interval from 0 to 1.

We can also rule out choice D since the probabilities sum to this

0.20+0.15+0.20+0.20+0.20+0.20 = 1.15

The sum is too large. The sum needs to be 1.00 or just 1.

So that leaves choice A or choice B as the possible answer. Both distributions fit conditions #1 and #2 as shown above (I'll let you confirm these facts). However, choice A is ruled out because that distribution is considered fair. Each probability for choice A is equal, so each side of the cube is equally likely to be landed on.

For choice B, the probabilities are different, so we don't have a fair cube here and it is considered loaded or biased.

What is the gradient of the graph shown?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

gradient = \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the gradient m using the gradient formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 6, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{2-0}{0-(-6)} = \frac{2}{0+6} = \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}
