Question

Please Help!!!!! Trina has two spinners. One spinner has 4 equal sections that are numbered 1 through 4. The other spinner has 5 equal sections that are numbered 1 through 5. Trina spins both spinners at the same time.

The random variable X is the sum of the numbers on which the spinners land. What is P(5≤X≤8) ?  

Enter your answer, in simplest fraction form, in the box

Answer 1

13/20

This is the correct answer! Good luck!

Answer 2

Given:

Spinner 1 = 1, Spinner 2 = 4,5
Spinner 1 = 2, Spinner 2 = 3,4,5
Spinner 1 = 3, Spinner 2 = 2,3,4,5
Spinner 1 = 4, Spinner 2 = 1,2,3,4

There are possibly 13 outcomes.

P(5≤X≤8) = 13/(4*5) = 13/20
