<span>It's easy enough. Solving looks like that: p(roll of 8)+p(roll of 12) =</span>\frac{5}{36} + \frac{1}{36} = \frac{1}{6} ; \frac{1}{6} *9 +\frac{5}{6}*2 = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{5}{3} = -\frac{1}{6} Hope everything is clear.

Answer:  -\frac{1}{6}

 

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the total outcomes when two dices are thrown = 36

Also, the total outcomes of getting the sum of 8 or 12 in throwing = {(2,6)(6,2)(3,5),(5,3),(4,4)}= 6

Hence, the probability of getting the sum of 8 or 12 in throwing two dices

= \frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}

Also,  the probability of getting the sum of 8 or 12 in throwing two dices = 1-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{5}{6}

Thus, the expected point he can earn in one throw = 9\times \frac{1}{6}-2\times {5}{6} = \frac{9}{6}-\frac{10}{6}=-\frac{1}{6}

The solution for this problem is:
\frac{4}{9}(x + 3)=g \\ 4(x+3) = 9g \\ (x+3)= \frac{9g}{4}   \\ x= \frac{9g}{4} -3

Answer:

1. 4 as that is when he is closest.

2. 3 is when he is waiting as the graph is horizontal showing no movement
