A biased die has a probability of 1/4 of showing a 5, while the probability of any of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 turning up is the same .

If three such dice are rolled, what is the probability of getting a sum of at least 14 without getting a 6 on any die ?
Option 1 : 5/24
Option 2 : 9/160
Option 3 : 1/30
Option 4 : 7/160

Possibilities of outcomes:
5, 5, 5
5, 5, 4

P(sum at least 14) = P(5,5,4) + P(5,5,5)
= 1/4 x 1/4 x 3/20 + 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4
1/40

Study the steps used to solve the equation. Given: StartFraction c Over 2 EndFraction minus 5 equals 7 Step 1: StartFraction c O
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

  1. addition property of equality
  2. integers are closed to addition
  3. identity element
  4. multiplication property of equality
  5. commutative property of multiplication; reals are closed to multiplication; identity element

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  c/2 -5 = 7

  Step 1: c/2 -5 +5 = 7 +5

  Step 2: c/2 +0 = 12

  Step 3: c/2 = 12

  Step 4: 2(c/2) = 12(2)

  Step 5: c = 24

<u>Find</u>:

  The property that justifies each step of the solution.

<u>Solution</u>:

  Step 1: addition property of equality (lets you add the same to both sides)

  Step 2: integers are closed to addition

  Step 3: identity property of addition (adding 0 changes nothing)

  Step 4: multiplication property of equality

  Step 5: closure of real numbers to multiplication; identity property of multiplication

_____

It is hard to say what "property" you want to claim when you simplify an arithmetic expression. Above, we have used the property that the sets of integers and real numbers are closed to addition and multiplication. That is, adding or multiplying real numbers gives a real number.

In Step 5, we can rearrange 2(c/2) to c(2/2) using the commutative property of multiplication. 2/2=1, and c×1 = c. The latter is due to the identity element for multiplication: multiplying by 1 changes nothing.

Apart from the arithmetic, the other properties used are properties of equality.  Those let you perform any operation on an equation, as long as you do it to both sides of the equation. The operations we have performed in this fashion are adding 5 and multiplying by 2.

The owner of a football team claims that the average attendance at games is over 74,900, and he is therefore justified in moving
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Option c (Upper tailed) is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The average attendance is:

= 74,900

We will have to test:

⇒ H_0:\mu \leq \mu_0

or,

   H_0: \mu \leq 74,900

Verses,

⇒ H_1: \mu> \mu_0

or,

    H_1: \mu >74,900

The other given alternatives aren't connected to the given scenario. So the above is the correct one.

Chuanxi planned a rectangular sidewalk with a length of 21 ft. He made a scale drawing using a scale factor of 1 in. = 7 ft. He
Masteriza [31]
Original Ratio of 1 in = 7 ft so 3 in = 21 ft
Now, New ratio 1 in = x ft so 3 in = 27ft

1/x = 3/27

cross multiply a/b = c/d ad = bc
1/x = 3/27
3x = 27
x = 9

1 in represents 9 ft
