Question

identify possible and impossible events
determine whether each event is possible or impossible on a 6 - sided cube where the numbers are 1 through 6.
rolling a number greater than 10
rolling an even number
rolling an 8
rolling a number less than 7
rolling a 1

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze each event

• For "Rolling a number greater than 10": A standard 6 - sided cube has numbers 1 - 6. Since 6 < 10, this event is impossible.
• For "Rolling an even number": The even numbers on a 6 - sided cube are 2, 4, 6. So it is possible.
• For "Rolling an 8": A 6 - sided cube has no 8. So it is impossible.
• For "Rolling a number less than 7": All numbers on a 6 - sided cube (1 - 6) are less than 7. So it is possible.
• For "Rolling a 1": 1 is on a 6 - sided cube. So it is possible.

Answer:

Possible: Rolling an even number, Rolling a number less than 7, Rolling a 1
Impossible: Rolling a number greater than 10, Rolling an 8
