coin $a$ is flipped three times and coin $b$ is flipped four times. what is the probability that the number of heads obtained from flipping the two fair coins is the same?

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that the number of heads obtained from flipping the two fair coins is the same is 35/128.

Probability:

Probability means the fraction of favorable outcome and the total number of outcomes.

So it can be written as,

Probability = Favorable outcomes / Total outcomes

Given,

The coin a is flipped three times and coin b is flipped four times.

Here we need to find the probability that the number of heads obtained from flipping the two fair coins is the same.

We know that,

There are 4 ways that the same number of heads will be obtained;

0, 1, 2, or 3 heads.

The probability of both getting 0 heads is

[tex]$\left(\frac12\right)^3{3\choose0}\left(\frac12\right)^4{4\choose0}=\frac1{128}$[/tex]

Probability of getting 1 head,

[tex]$\left(\frac12\right)^3{3\choose1}\left(\frac12\right)^4{4\choose1}=\frac{12}{128}$[/tex]

Probability of getting 2 heads is,

[tex]$\left(\frac12\right)^3{3\choose2}\left(\frac12\right)^4{4\choose2}=\frac{18}{128}$[/tex]

And the probability of getting 3 heads is,

[tex]$\left(\frac12\right)^3{3\choose3}\left(\frac12\right)^4{4\choose3}=\frac{4}{128}$[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the number of heads obtained from flipping the two fair coins is the same is,

=> (1/128) + (12/128) + (18/128) + (4/128)

=> 35/128.

Answers

5,435,778 in scientific notation will be 5.435778×10⁶.

Scientific notation is the way to represents huge numbers in simple form. This ease understanding and calculation of the numbers. When written in a scientific notation, the number is called coefficient, the number to which power is raised is called base and raised power is called exponent. For instance, in the given answer, 5.435778 is coefficient, 10 is base and 6 is exponent.

While converting the numbers into scientific notation, we need to remember following points -

If the number is greater than 1 or is a multiple of 10, the decimal will be placed on the Left Hand Side. Like in the number in question, decimal moved to left and we got positive exponent. If the number is less than 1, then decimal will be placed at Right Hand Side. In this case, the exponent will be negative. For instance, we will represent 0.005 as 5*10-³.

Rhiannon and Sophie both started saving for a new piano this month. Rhiannon will deposit $35.80 per week, but her bank account is currently overdrawn with a -$253.50 balance. Sophie also has a negative bank account balance of -$78.25 and will deposit $23.30 each week. How many weeks (w) will it take for the two bank accounts to have the same balance?​

Answers

It will take 14.02 weeks for both the accounts to have the same balance

Bank account balance of Rhiannon = -$253.50

Money deposited by Rhiannon in the bank account each week = $35.80

Bank account balance of Sophie = -$78.25

Money deposited by Sophie in the bank account each week = $23.30

Let the number of weeks it takes to have the same account balance be x, therefore formulating the algebric equation we get:

Bank balance of Rhiannon + Money deposited by her each week*No of weeks it will take for the balance to be equal = Bank balance of Sophie + Money deposited by her each week*No of weeks it will take for the balance to be equal

= -253.5 + 35.8(x)  = -78.25 + 23.3(x)

= -175.25 = -12.5(x)

x =  14.02 weeks

Therefore, it will take 14.02 weeks for both the accounts to have the same balance

Answers

The total cost is represented as C = $0.50x + $4300  and the average cost as avgC = $0.50 + $4300/x

We have been given that,

The variable cost for producing the game = $0.50 per unit

The fixed cost for producing the game = $4300

Let the total cost be denoted by C.

And let x be the number of games produced.

a) Total cost = variable cost + fixed cost

          C = $0.50x + $4300

b) Average cost = total cost/number of games produced

                        = C/x

                        = ($0.50x + $4300)/x

                        = $0.50 + $4300/x

The average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [1,1+h] is [1/(h + 6) - 1/6]/h

How to find the average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [1,1+h]?

The function is given as

f(x) = 1/(x + 5)

The interval is given as

[1, 1 + h]

Calculate f(1) as follows

So, we have

f(1) = 1/(1 + 5)

f(1) = 1/6

Calculate f(1 + h) as follows

So, we have

f(1 + h) = 1/(1 + h + 5)

f(1 + h) = 1/(h + 6)

The average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [1,1+h] is then calculated as

Rate = [f(1 + h) - f(1)]/[1 + h - 1]

This gives

Rate = [1/(h + 6) - 1/6]/h

Hence, the average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [1,1+h] is [1/(h + 6) - 1/6]/h

a. Write the inequality that represents the constraint of the situation, where x is the price of the first oil painting, and y is the price of the second.

b. Graph the inequality that represents the constraint on the sale.

Answers

The inequality that represents the constraint of the situation is x+y ≥ 400.

Inequality is defined as the mathematical expression in which both sides are not equal .

In inequalities the two vales are compared by "≤" , "≥" , "≠"  .

For Example : 2x+3y≥4 is an example of inequality .

In the given question

Part (a)

Given Kylie sell first oil painting in $x

and second oil painting in $y.

Kylie is trying to earn at least $400.

the term at least means she can earn $400 or greater than $400, so ≥ sign will  be used,

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

so, the best way to help you is to help you understand how to solve such problems yourself.

let me know if you still don't understand something :

4.

this you can solve just by common sense.

let's see if you understand it with smaller numbers :

1 ball costs $3. how much will 2 balls cost ? well, twice as much : 2×3 = $6.

how much will 3 balls cost ? hmmm ? three times as much : 3×3 = $9.

and so on.

so, how much will 10 balls cost ? right, ten times a much : 10×3 = $30.

now,

8 eggs for 3 cups of flour.

how many eggs for 30 cups of flour ? you notice that 30 is 10 times 3, right ?

yes, ten times a many eggs : 10×8 = 80 eggs.

5.

3 quarters simply means 3/4.

if we want to know how much 3/4 of something is, we have to multiply that something by 3/4.

so, for 60 students :

60 × 3/4 = 180/4 = 45 students bring a lunch from home.

6.

similar to 4.

5 books in 2 days.

how many books in 8 days ?

you notice that 8 is 4 times 2 ?

so, yes, 4 times as many books : 4×5 = 20 books.

7.

now we are getting into areas, where we need more thinking and apply formal mathematics.

10 pounds jam requires 5 pounds apples.

8 pounds jam require x pounds apples.

the easiest way is to use ratios :

jam to apples = 10/5 = 2/1 = 2

8 pounds jam to x pounds apples must follow the same ratio, as we are using the same recipe.

8/x = 2

8 = 2x

x = 4

so, to get 8 pounds of jam we need 4 pounds of apples.

8.

it seems they were very, very hungry ...

Jenny ate 6 1/4 pizzas.

Dolly ate 5 1/4 pizzas.

6 1/4 = (6×4 + 1)/4 = 25/4

5 1/4 = (5×4 + 1)/4 = 21/4

so, Jenny ate 25/4 / 21/4 = 25/21 = 1.19047619... times more pizza.

or in other words she ate

25/4 - 21/4 = 4/4 = 1 more pizza.

9.

so, he wins 5 of every 15, that is a ratio of 5/15 = 1/3.

he had 75 matches. 1/3 of 75 matches (see also 5.) means

75 × 1/3 = 75/3 = 25.

he won 25 matches.
