To find:The event.
Answer to Problem 4WE
The event is {(3,6),(4,5),(4,6),(5,4),(5,5),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5)(6,6)}.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The sum of the numbers showing on the two dice is greater than 8.
Calculation:
In the experiment, two dice thrown one is red and the other is blue.
The possible numbers on the dice are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
There are 36 possible combinations there, out of which the sum of the numbers showing on the two dice is greater than 8, the required event is
{(3,6),(4,5),(4,6),(5,4),(5,5),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5)(6,6)}
Thus, the event is {(3,6),(4,5),(4,6),(5,4),(5,5),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5)(6,6)}
