The probability that the number 4 has appeared at least once is:

  1. A \(\frac{ 2 }{ 5 }\)
  2. B \(\frac{3}{5}\)

  4. D \(\frac{3}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{ 2 }{ 5 }\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Sample space for sum = 6: \(S = \{ (1,5), (2,4), (3,3), (4,2), (5,1) \}\) Number of outcomes in S: \(|S| = 5\) Outcomes where 4 appears at least once and sum is 6: \(A \cap S = \{ (2,4), (4,2) \}\) Number of outcomes in \(A \cap S\): \(|A \cap S| = 2\) Probability:…
