Suppose each of 12 players rolls a pair of dice 3 times. Find the probability that at least 4 of the players will roll doubles at least once. (Answer correct to four decimal places.)

Our answer is 0.8172

Step-by-step explanation:

P(doubles on a single roll of pair of dice) =(6/36) =1/6

therefore P(in 3 rolls of pair of dice at least one doubles)=1-P(none of roll shows a double)

=1-(1-1/6)3 =91/216

for 12 players this follows binomial distribution with parameter n=12 and p=91/216

probability that at least 4 of the players will get “doubles” at least once =P(X>=4)

=1-(P(X<=3)

=1-((₁₂ C0)×(91/216)⁰(125/216)¹²+(₁₂ C1)×(91/216)¹(125/216)¹¹+(₁₂ C2)×(91/216)²(125/216)¹⁰+(₁₂ C3)×(91/216)³(125/216)⁹)

=1-0.1828

=0.8172

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
