Three unbiased dice are thrown. Find the probability that
(i) they all show different numbers,
(ii) at least two show the same number.

Hi, I m doing a very silly mistake here
I m getting the answer as
2x + 5x^2/2 + 1/x +4 + c

while the answer in MS is
2x+5x^2/2 +1/2-x + c
Can anyone correct me ?

Let the length of one square be x and the other square be y.
Sum of perimeters = 4x + 4y
1. 4x + 4y = 52

Sum of areas = x^2 + y^2
2. x^2 + y^2 = 89

  • From 1. x = (52 - 4y)/4 => x = 13 - y
  • Put this in 2.
  • (13 - y)^2 + y^2 = 89
  • 169 - 26y + y^2 + y^2 = 89
  • 2y^2 - 26y + 80 = 0
  • y = 8 ; y = 5
  • Put these values in x = 13 - y
  • 13 - 8 = 5 or 13 - 5 = 8
  • So length of one square = 8 cm;
  • length of the other square = 5 cm

How do i calculate upper and lower bounds? Can someone help? If we have a number , say 27. What's the upper and lower bound and how do i derive them?

it is given in the question. Like they must have told u nearest to cm or something like that. let's make it nearest to cm in ur case.
1 cm /2 = 0.5cm
U.B = 27 + 0.5 = 27.5
L.B = 27 - 0.5 = 26.5
