A 12-sided die is rolled. The set of equally likely outcomes is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12). Find the probability of rolling a number greater than 12.
The probability of rolling a number greater than 12 is
(Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)

Answer:

[tex]P(x>12) = 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x = \{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12\}[/tex] --- outcomes

[tex]n(x) = 12[/tex] -- sample size

Required

[tex]P(x > 12)[/tex]

This is calculated as:

[tex]P(x > 12) = \frac{n(x > 12)}{n(x)}[/tex]

[tex]n(x>12) = 0[/tex] because none of the outcomes is greater than 12:

So:

[tex]P(x > 12) =\frac{0}{12}[/tex]

[tex]P(x>12) = 0[/tex]
