Question

Amber rolls a 6-sided die. On her first roll, she gets a "6". She rolls again.(a) What is the probability that the second roll is also a "6".P(6 | 6) =(b) What is the probability that the second roll is a "4".P(46) =

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

Given the word problem, we can deduce the following information:

1. Amber rolls a 6-sided die.

2. Amber gets a "6" on her first roll.

a)

To determine the probability that the second roll is also a "6", we note first that a 6-sided die has these values: 1,2,3,4,5,6

As we can see, there's only one 6 value on a 6-sided die while the total .So, the probability would be:

P(6 | 6) =1/6

b)

To determine that the second roll is a "4", we use the same reasoning above. Therefore, the probability is:

P(4 | 6) =1/6
