In a dice game played with three fair six-sided dice, the objective is to collect 6s. after the first roll, any dice showing a 6 are reserved, and the other dice are rolled again. what is the probability that a second roll will result in two dice showing a 6?

Since we're talking about "a second roll", we must consider all the possible outcomes of the first.

Case 1: the first roll had no 6s.

This happens with probability

$\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^3$

(you want one of the other 5 numbers in all dice). In this scenario, the second roll involves all three dice, and we want exactly two 6s. Using Bernoulli's distribution, we know that this happens with probability

$\displaystyle\binom{3}{2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2\cdot \dfrac{5}{6}$

Case 2: the first roll had one 6.

This happens with probability

$\displaystyle\binom{3}{1}\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2\cdot \dfrac{1}{6}$

In this scenario, the second roll involves two dice, and we want them both to show 6. This happens with probability

$\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2$

Case 3: the first roll had two 6s.

In this case, the second roll would involve the only remaining dice, so there's no way you can have two 6s in the second roll

Case 4: the first roll had three 6s.

In this case there is no second roll, because all three dice have already shown 6, and are thus reserved.

So, if we sum all possible scenario, multiplied by the probability that that scenario would occur, we have this global probability for the first scenario

$\displaystyle \left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^3\cdot\binom{3}{2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2\cdot \dfrac{5}{6} = \binom{3}{2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^4$

and this global probability for the second scenario

$\displaystyle\binom{3}{1}\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2\cdot \dfrac{1}{6}\cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2 = \binom{3}{1}\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2\cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^3$

Their sum is

$\displaystyle\binom{3}{2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^4 + \binom{3}{1}\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2\cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^3 = \left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2\cdot \left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2 \left(\binom{3}{2}\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2+\binom{3}{1}\cdot\dfrac{1}{6}\right)$

Both binomial coefficients evaluate to 3, so we can simplify the expression as follows:

$\displaystyle\left(\dfrac{5}{36}\right)^2\left(3\left(\dfrac{5}{6}\right)^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\right)$

This approximates to 0.05, or 5%

region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true ⇒ answer a

step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the graph and the inequality to solve the question

- the inequality y > -x - 2

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = -2 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , -2)

∵ the sign of the inequality is >

∴ we shad the part over the line

region a and b

- the inequality y < 2x + 1

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = 1 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 1)

∵ the sign of the inequality is <

∴ we shad the part under the line

region b and c

∵ the common region between the two lines is region b

∴ region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true

Bwill make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y> -x- 2 true. o a. region b o b. region c o c. r

Hurry and answer this! circle x with a radius of 6 units and circle y with a radius of 2 units are shown which steps would prove the circles similar? translate the circles so they share a common center point, and dilate circle y by a scale factor of 4. translate the circles so the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle, and dilate circle y by a scale factor of 4. translate the circles so they share a common center point, and dilate circle y by a scale factor of 3. translate the circles so the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle, and dilate circle y by a scale factor of 3
