U toss two number cubes. If a sum of 7 or 11 comes up, you get 7 points, if not you lose 2 points. The probabilities for each of the sums is:

P(2) = 1/36 P(3) = 1/18 P(4) = 1/12 P(5) = 1/9

P(6) = 5/36 P(7) = 1/6 P(8) = 5/36 P(9) = 1/9

P(10) = 1/12 P(11) = 1/18 P(12) = 1/36

up

step-by-step explanation:

the orientation of the parabolas can easily be found by analysing the power of x and y and their signs. if x is squared , parabola opens up and also if its coefficient is negative it opens down. if y is squared , the parabola opens right and also if its coefficient is negative it opens left. however in order to do the above analysis our equation must be in standard form .

our parabola is

which is not standard form of any parabola . hence we square on both hand side and convert it into standard form.

hence we see that x is squared and its coefficient is non negative . there for it opens up.
