Kate said to Liam, “If you roll a 5 on a number cube, you win. If I get a head on a coin toss, I win.” Is the game fair or unfair? Explain.



a.No; P(5) and P(Heads) are not basically close.

b.No; Heads is not an option on a number cube.

c.Yes; P(5) and P(Heads) are basically equal.

d.Yes; Rolling a number cube and flipping a coin have no effect on each other.

4 answers

prob(5 on a cube) = 1/6
prob(head on coin toss) = 1/2

So, ... what do you think?
what is meaning of this nonsense
idk really
I hate math either way so yeah:(
