An 8-sided fair die is rolled twice and the product of the two numbers obtained when the die is rolled two times is calculated. (a) Draw the possibility diagram of the product of the two numbers appearing on the die in each throw

Question Completion

(b) Use the possibility diagram to calculate the probability that the product of the two numbers is

I) A prime number

ii) Not a perfect square

iii) A multiple of 5

iv) Less than or equal to 21

v) Divisible by 4 or 6

I) 0.125  (ii)0.828125   (iii)0.234375   (iv) 0.625   (v)0.65625

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space for an 8-sided fair die rolled twice is:

(a) The possibility diagram of the product of the two numbers appearing on the die in each throw

(b)

I) A prime number

Number of Products which are prime numbers = 8 

ii) Not a perfect square  

Number of products which are perfect squares =11

iii) A multiple of 5

Number of Products that are multiples of 5=15

iv) Less than or equal to 21

Number of products less than or equal to 21=40

v) Divisible by 4 or 6

Products Divisible by 4 or 6= 42

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11 -1> 1 -1+ a

-12 > a
