Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) find the total candies
7 + 8 + 5 + 9 = 29
2) a probability can be expressed with a fraction whose denominator is the total candies, while the numerator represents the candies that we want to find
- red = 7/29
- blue = 8/29
- yellow = 5/29
- green = 9/29
3) compound probability
(red + blue)/29 = 15/29
(yellow + green)/29 = 14/29
(blue + yellow + green)/29 = 22/29
Step-by-step explanation:
x-intercept => point (2, 0)
y-intercept => point (0, -4)
3x greater than or equal to 20
3x = 20
X= 7 games for the pass to be better
3(7)=21
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value is the probability times the frequency.
3 = 1/6 × n
n = 18
Note: the use of the word "odds" is very misleading here. Odds are the ratio of number of successes to number of failures:
S / F
Probability is the ratio of number of successes to number of all outcomes:
S / (S + F)
So the probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6. The odds of rolling a 5 is 1/5.
Furthermore, the word "must" is also incorrect. The player didn't <em>have</em> to roll 18 times. They could have rolled three times and gotten a 5 each time. Or they could have rolled 100 times. 18 is simply the most <em>likely </em>number of rolls needed to get three 5's.
