Capitolo 2, Problema 19a
If two six-sided dice are rolled, what is the probability that the total number of spots showing is 4?
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the total number of possible outcomes when two six-sided dice are rolled. Since each die has 6 faces, the total number of outcomes is 6 × 6 = 36.
Determine the specific outcomes that result in a total of 4. These outcomes are pairs of numbers (x, y) where x + y = 4. For example, (1, 3), (2, 2), and (3, 1).
Count the number of favorable outcomes from the previous step. Ensure that all combinations are included and no duplicates are counted.
Calculate the probability by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. Use the formula: \( P = \frac{\text{Number of Favorable Outcomes}}{\text{Total Number of Outcomes}} \).
Simplify the fraction, if possible, to express the probability in its simplest form.

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Probability
Probability is a measure of the likelihood that a particular event will occur, expressed as a number between 0 and 1. In the context of rolling dice, it quantifies the chance of obtaining a specific outcome, such as a total of 4 spots. The probability can be calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes.

Probability
Sample Space
The sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment. For rolling two six-sided dice, the sample space consists of all combinations of the two dice, which totals 36 outcomes (6 sides on the first die multiplied by 6 sides on the second die). Understanding the sample space is crucial for calculating probabilities accurately.

Favorable Outcomes
Favorable outcomes refer to the specific results that satisfy the condition of the probability question. In this case, to find the probability of rolling a total of 4, we need to identify all combinations of the two dice that add up to 4. These combinations are (1,3), (2,2), and (3,1), totaling three favorable outcomes.

Domanda del libro di testo
In pea plants, the appearance of flowers along the main stem is a dominant phenotype called 'axial' and is controlled by an allele T. The recessive phenotype, produced by an allele t, has flowers only at the end of the stem and is called 'terminal.' Pod form displays a dominant phenotype, 'inflated,' controlled by an allele C, and a recessive 'constricted' form, produced by the c allele. A cross is made between a pure-breeding axial, constricted plant and a plant that is pure-breeding terminal, inflated.
If the plants with terminal flowers produced by the cross in part (c) are saved and allowed to self-fertilize, what is the expected phenotypic distribution among the progeny?

Suppose that all of the F₂ progeny with terminal flowers, i.e., plants with terminal flowers and inflated pods and plants with terminal flowers and constricted pods, are saved and allowed to self-fertilize to produce a partial F₃ generation. What is the expected phenotypic distribution among these F₃ plants?
