Find the probability of rolling a sum of 10 or a sum that is an odd number when two number cubes are rolled.

7/12 chance

Step-by-step explanation:

(1 2 3 4 5 6)

(1 2 3 4 5 6)

All the possibilities:

(1, 1) (2, 1) (3, 1) (4, 1) (5, 1) (6, 1)

(1, 2) (2, 2) (3, 2) (4, 2) (5, 2) (6, 2)

(1, 3) (2, 3) (3, 3) (4, 3) (5, 3) (6, 3)

(1, 4) (2, 4) (3, 4) (4, 4) (5, 4) (6, 4)

(1, 5) (2, 5) (3, 5) (4, 5) (5, 5) (6, 5)

(1, 6) (2, 6) (3, 6) (4, 6) (5, 6) (6, 6)

There are 18 odd sums.

(1, 1) (2, 1) (3, 1) (4, 1) (5, 1) (6, 1)

(1, 2) (2, 2) (3, 2) (4, 2) (5, 2) (6, 2)

(1, 3) (2, 3) (3, 3) (4, 3) (5, 3) (6, 3)

(1, 4) (2, 4) (3, 4) (4, 4) (5, 4) (6, 4)

(1, 5) (2, 5) (3, 5) (4, 5) (5, 5) (6, 5)

(1, 6) (2, 6) (3, 6) (4, 6) (5, 6) (6, 6)

There are 3 possibilities whose sums add up to 10.

Since there are 36 total possibilities and 21 numbers that fit the rule of having an odd sum or a sum of 10. There is a 21/36 chance or simplified, 7/12 chance.

Explanation

−x^2+5x−10=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=-1, b=5, c=-10.

you plug it in as shown below

and simplify

when you simplify

you get

as shown below

This is no solution....
