What is the probability that when we roll 5 fair 6-sided dice, at most 4 of them will show a 1?
lions [1.4K]
If you're rolling 5 dice, and all dice have a 1 on them, then you still have a 4/5 chance that four of the five dice will show 1.

What is 5(n-1)=2(n-4)-6
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

6n - 6 = 2 (n+1)

Simplify 2 (n+1)

6n - 6= 2n +2

Move all terms related to n to the left side of the equation

4n -6 =2

Move all terms not related to n to the right side of the equation

4n =8

Divide each term by 4 then simplify

n=2

Can you please give the answer for this problem? :<br> 18+11v=w-13t for t
Kay [80]
18+11v=w-13t
18+11-w=-13t
13t=w-11v-18
t=1/13w - 11/13v - 1 5/13

Hope this helps :)
