  1. My hypothesis is that "R" stands for rolls and "P" stands for patterns. we did 2 rolls and found 4 patterns so a good test would be to roll the dice more times to find more patterns.

    H: 4, 2, and 5 have nothing to do with the r or p..?
    T: All 4's- 0r or 0p
    All 2's- 0r or 0p
    All 5's- 0r or 0p
    H: 3, 1, and 6 have something to do with the rule.

    (I wasnt sure what to do, I hope this is right.)

    1. THis looks pretty goo you are missing the observation that allowed you to create your hypothesis...
      O:Observation
      H:Hypothesis
      T:Test
      R:result

  3. Hypothisis:4 and 2 have nothing to do with R and P
    1=1R
    1,3,5 have something to do with the R and P
    Test:roll all 2's- 0R 0P
    roll all 4's- 0R 0P
    roll all 1's- 5R
    roll1's, 3's, and 5's- 5R
    ( not sure how to get the P's)

    1. OK same thing what evidence do you have to support 4&2 have nothing to do with the rule?
      This is good but you need the observation see above for sara's. You are on the right track and should be prepared for the quest on Wed.

    2. the observation I made to say that 4 and 2 have nothing to do with R and P is because when you look at the set of dice, you see that the 4 and 2 are diffrent yet R and P remained the same

  4. R means roll number, because in class the first roll had R1 and the second R2. P means pairs, or numbers the two rolls have in common. In class there was a roll with P4 that had four numbers in common with the roll before it, and these two have P2, and two numbers in common. We can test it by rolling more die and seeing if my hypothesis still applies.

  5. The "R" stands for rolls and the "P" stands for patterns. Therefore this means that both outcomes came from two rolls and have 2 patterns. There's 1,2,3 and 4 in the first outcome which could be one pattern and another pattern from there could be all of the even numbers. There are two 6's in the second outcome and all of the odds numbers could be another pattern.

  6. R stands for rolls and p stands for patterns. We had four rolls and patterns in. The both rolls in class. 2 sixes, two twos, and two ones. Therefore, there were more than 2 ps in the experiment.

  7. Okay that is a hypothesis. Where is it coming from what is the evidence that allowed you to create it?
    SO reading this again I think the observation is each roll contained similar die.
    THe way it reads above there are six dice?

    ALSO not sure why their is not more posts on this the test is WED, Check Calendar.

  8. Observation: Numbers 2,4 didn't change the number of R's or P's
    H- 2, 4, and 6 have nothing to do with R and P.
    H- R stands for Roses and P stands for Petals
    T-All 2's= 0R 0P
    T-All 4's=0R 0P
    O-1,3,5 change the number of R's and P's
    H-1,3,5 have something to do with R and P
    H-R's are the centers of 1,3,5 and P's are the dots surrounding the the center rose.
    T-two 1's two 3's one 5= 5R and 8P

  9. O- there are 5 dice that get rolled twice. the first outcome is 3,4,1,6 and 2. The second roll has 3,6,1,6 and 5. Both rolls contain the numbers 3, 1, and 6.
    H- R stands for the number of rolls (there were two combinations of rolling 5 dice, therefore 2 rolls) and P stands for the least amount of possible pairs ( for example in the first and second rolls, both contained the numbers 3, 1 and 6, so there are at least 2 pairs of matching dice)
    T- roll more dice and find pairs. The R should equal 3 for the third roll, 4 for the fourth roll, etc. and the P should equal the least possible pairs of dice.

    ReplyDelete
  10. O: both have 1,3,6. There are 3 pairs 3's 1s and 6s. there are 5 die. the other numbers are 2,4,5, but have no pairs.
    H: 2,4,5 have nothing to do with r or p. r stands for roses and p stands for petals.
    T: roll all 2's, 4s or 5s. Also than make rolls with them not included so its all 1s,3s,and 6s

  11. Observations: The 2, 4, and 5 don't effect the R or P. The R and P did not change but these numbers did.
    Hypothesis: A 1 gives you 1P, a 3 gives you 1R and 1P, and a 6 gives you 1P. A number only counts once per roll
    Test:Roll all 2's 5's and 4's and Roll all 1's 3's and 6's

  12. O:-have same number of 3's in same place
    -have same number of 1's in same place
    -first roll doesn't have 5, second roll doesn't have 4
    -both have at least one 6
    -first roll has 2
    -difference is 2nd and last rolls
    -doesn't have to do with 3 and 1
    -deals with 4, 2, and ; 6 is tricky because it's not in each roll an equal amount of times
    H: The 4, 2, and 5 definitely have something to do with it; I'm not sure about 6.
    T: Could roll all 4's, 2's, and 5's or a roll made up of just 4's, 2's, and 5's.

  13. 1st roll - 2P
    2nd roll - 2P
    H: P is however many prime numbers there are in the roll
    Observations to support: The first roll has 3 4 1 6 2 - 3 is prime and so if 2 - none of the others are - 2 prime numbers
    The second roll has 3 6 1 6 5 - 3 is prime and so is 5 - none of the others are - 2 prime numbers

    1st roll - 2R
    2nd roll- 2R
    H: R is how many numbers there are in the roll that are greater than 2 and that are evenly divisible by 2 (meaning you would get a whole number)
    Observations to support: The first roll has 3 4 1 6 2 - There are only 2 numbers (4 and 6) that are greater than 2 and
    are also divisible by it
    The second roll has 3 6 1 6 5 - There are also only 2 numbers (6 and 6) that are greater than 2 and are also divisible
    by it
    Test: Roll all prime numbers
    Roll all numbers greater than 2 that can be divided but it
    Roll the same exact things again

  14. "R" means rolls and "P" stands for pattern. The R's continually grew as more rolls were rolled. "P" stands for the patterns that are odd. If there was a pattern that was 2 6's it would not count towards R. We could test the hypothesis by rolling more.

  15. O- there are two rolls... 1st Roll: 1,2,3,4,6 2nd Roll: 1,3,5,6,6
    Each roll has 2R and 2P
    H- 1,3 affect the R and P since they are the same in both rolls (6 is excluded because the number of sixes change between rolls), 2,4,5, 6 do not affect it since they change but the R and P stay the same. Rolling a number one grants one R and one P and rolling a number three grants one R and one P. If each roll has only one 1 and one 3 that supports the 2R 2P for each roll.
    T- Roll anything without 1 or 3.
    R- R and P should both be 0.

  16. R stands for rolls and P stands for patterns. With the two rolls came two patterns that were different. The pattern was the differences. By testing our hypothesis two or three more times, we would be able to come up with more observations to support the hypothesis.

  17. O: 2 and 4 don't change how many P's or R's there are.
    H- 2 and 4 don't effect the P's or R's.
    T: Only 2's= 0R and 0P
    T: Only 4's=0R and 0P
    O:1,3 and 5 change how many P's and R's there are.
    H: 1,3 and 5 effect the number of P's and R's.
    H: R's are Roses and are the center of odd die like 1,3 and 5.
    H: P's are Petals and are the dots on the outside of die with Roses on it(Die 1,3, and 5).
    T: A roll with die(4,1,2,5,1) would have 3 R's and 4 P's.

  18. Observations:
    Roll one: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ; P-6, R-3
    Roll two: 1, 2, 3, 2, 5 ; P-6, R-3
    Roll three: 1, 1, 1, 1, 6 ; P-0 R-4

    Hypothesis: Twos and fours do not affect the outcome of the Ps or Rs because, when one of these numbers is rolled, the Ps and Rs do not change (see rolls one and two).

    Test:
    Test roll one: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 ; P-0, R-0
    Test roll two: 4, 4, 4, 4, 4 ; P-0 R-0

    Result:
    The hypothesis is not proven untrue. However, if any of the Ps or Rs in the test rolls had been anything other than 0, the hypothesis would have been proven incorrect due to the fact that the twos and/or fours were affecting the resuult.

  19. Observation- There are 5 dice that get rolled twice.
    -Outcome #1- 3,4,1,6 and 2
    -Outcome #2- 3,6,1,6 and 5
    - Both rolls have the numbers 3,1 and 6
    - Hypothesis:
    -2,4 and 6 have nothing to do with the R and P
    - The R's Grew constantly as more dice were rolled
    - The P's stands for the patterns
    -all 2's and 4s = 0R 0P
    Test:
    Roll more dice to find more patterns.

  20. o: both have at least one 1,3,6 different first group has a 2 and 4 group two has another 6 and a 5 both have at least 2 odds and 2 evens
    H: a pair off odd and even 1 give you one r and a 1 or 3 gives you p
    T: roll another turn of die and test

    ReplyDelete
  21. O: The Rolls both have a 1, 3, and 6 in common.
    H: The 2's, and 5's have nothing to do with the R or P. I think that the rile is divide the Maximum by the second highest number to get the P. Then to get the R, you can divide the difference by the minimum.
    T: Roll all 3s to see if the R and P values go R=0 and P=1

    ReplyDelete
  22. O: Both rolls have 1,3, and 6 in common.
    H: 2's and 5's have nothing to do with with R or P, and 1, 3, and 6 have something to do with the rule.
    T: Roll all 1's, 3's or 6's to test if the R and P values are equal.

  23. O: Both of the rolls have 1, 3, and 6 in common.
    H: 1, 3, and 6 have something to do with the rule and the 2's and 5's have nothing to do with the R or P.
    T: Keep rolling until you get all 1's, 3's, and 6's to see if the R and P are equal.
