We have two fair three-sided dice, indexed by i = 1, 2. Each die has sides labeled 1, 2, and 3. We roll the two dice independent

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

(a) P(X = 0) = 1/3

(b) P(X = 1) = 2/9

(c) P(X = −2) = 1/9

(d) P(X = 3) = 0

(a) P(Y = 0) = 0

(b) P(Y = 1) = 1/3

(c) P(Y = 2) = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Two 3-sided fair die.

- Random Variable X_1 : Result on 1st die.

- Random Variable X_2: Result on 2nd die.

- Random Variable X = X_2 - X_1.

Solution:

- Possible outcomes of X : { - 2 , -1 , 0 ,1 , 2 }

- The corresponding probabilities for each outcome are:

( X = -2 ): { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 3 }

P ( X = -2 ): P ( X_2 = 1 ) * P ( X_1 = 3 )

: ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

: ( 1 / 9 )

( X = -1 ): { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 2 } + { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 3 }

P ( X = -1 ): P ( X_2 = 1 ) * P ( X_1 = 3 ) + P ( X_2 = 2 ) * P ( X_1 = 3)

: ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

: ( 2 / 9 )

( X = 0 ): { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 1 } + { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 2 } + { X_2 = 3 , X_1 = 3 }

P ( X = -1 ):3*P ( X_2 = 1 )*P ( X_1 = 1 )

: 3*( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

: ( 3 / 9 ) = ( 1 / 3 )

( X = 1 ): { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 1 } + { X_2 = 3 , X_1 = 2 }

P ( X = 1 ): 2* P ( X_2 = 2 ) * P ( X_1 = 1 )

: 2* ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

: ( 2 / 9 )

( X = 2 ): { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 3 }

P ( X = 2 ): P ( X_2 = 3 ) * P ( X_1 = 1 )

: ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

: ( 1 / 9 )

- The distribution Y = X_2,

P(Y=0) = 0

P(Y=1) = 1/3

P(Y=2) = 1/ 3

- The probability for each number of 3 sided die is same = 1 / 3.

Compare the line passing through the points (−3, −11) and (6, 4) to the line given by the equation y=35x−6.

Aleks04 [339]

Let
<span>A------> (−3, −11)
B------> (6, 4)

step 1
find the slope m point A and point B
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)-----> </span>m=(4+11)/(6+3)----> m=15/9---> 5/3

step 2
with m=5/3 and point B (6, 4) find the equation of a line
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y-4=(5/3)*(x-6)---> y=(5/3)x-6

case <span>a. they have the same slope------> is not correct
because
</span><span>y=35x−6------> the slope m=35
</span>y=(5/3)x-6---> the slope m =5/3

case <span>b. they have the same x-intercept.----> is not correct
because
</span>the x-intercept is for y=0

y=35x−6-----> 0=35x-6----> 35x=6-----> x=6/35
the x-intercept is the point (6/35,0)

y=(5/3)x-6----> 0=(5/3)x-6----> (5/3)x=6---> x=18/5
the x-intercept is the point (18/5,0)

case <span>c. the two lines are perpendicular. do. they have the same y-intercept-----> is nor correct
because

if two lines are perpendicular
m1*m2=-1-------> </span><span>this condition is not satisfied
</span>
the y intercept is for x=0

y=35x−6-------> y=-6
the y intercept is the point (0,-6)

y=(5/3)x-6-----> y=-6
the y intercept is the point (0,-6)

they have the same y-intercept but the two lines are not perpendicular

one teacher wants to give each student 7/8 of a slice of pizza. If the teacher has 7 slices of pizza then how many students will

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many slices of pizza the teacher can hand out , you can divide 7 by 7/8 and round down the nearest whole number.

7 ÷ 7/8 = 8

8 is already a whole number. No need to round down.

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.
