Show all work and solve all parts that are asked: HW 1.y.(Yutnori) Yutnori is played by 2 (groups of) players on a gameboard with pieces thatmove around. Each player takes turns throwing yut sticks - each stick hastwo sides, round and flat, which makes the stick roll. Five combinationsare possible with yut sticks: do, gae, geol, yut and mo. A player achievinga yut or mo is allowed to roll again. Combinations and the number ofmoves they allow on the gameboard are presented in Figure 3 (flat sideup is blank and round side up is filled with x-es). Assuming each of the 4 Yut sticks falls on both of its sides with equalprobability, what is the probability that:a) you roll a yut?b) you roll a geol ?c) you get a second roll?d) you move 6 spaces in your first turn?In reality, a typical Yut stick is designed so that the probability of flat sidefacing up is around 60%. Try to think of what the previous probabilitieswould be in this case.arrow_forwardRylee's car is stuck in the mud. Roman and Shanice come along in a truck to help pull her out. They attach one end of a tow strap to the front of the car and the other end to the truck's trailer hitch, and the truck starts to pull. Meanwhile, Roman and Shanice get behind the car and push. The truck generates a horizontal force of 377 lb on the car. Roman and Shanice are pushing at a slight upward angle and generate a force of 119 lb on the car. These forces can be represented by vectors, as shown in the figure below. The angle between these vectors is 20.2°. Find the resultant force (the vector sum), then give its magnitude and its direction angle from the positive x-axis. 119 lb 20.2° 377 lbarrow_forward
