Question 105612: I am helping my son 12, with Marking period project.
Child playing a game with 3 frisbee's. There are four possible outcomes: A basket worth 1 point, a basket worth 5 points, a basket worth 10 points, and a miss of all baskets worth zero points.
What are the total possible point combinations for one turn of three frisbee's tossed ?
Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Each Frisbee toss is an independent event.(Three tosses)
Each Frisbee toss can be either 0, 1, 5, or 10 points (Four values at each toss)
If I first toss a 0, then my next toss could be four possible values (0,1,5,10). Since I have 4 possible first tosses, I have 4x4 possible two toss pairs for first and second tosses ((0,0),(0,1),...,(10,5),(10,10)). Same for the third toss, for each of the 16 two toss pairs, I have 4 possible values or 4x16=64 possible three toss values((0,0,0),(0,0,1),...,(10,10,5),(10,10,10)).
Or mathematically
Round 1 : 1 toss combinations
Round 2 : 2 toss combinations
Round 3 : 3 toss combinations
