You and your friend are playing a game. The two of you will continue to toss a coin until the sequence HH or TH shows up. If HH shows up first, you win. If TH shows up first, your friend wins. What is the probability of you winning?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability of friend A winning with HH = 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event, A is P(A) given by the relationship;

P(A) = (The number of required outcome)/(The number of possible outcomes)

The parameters given are;

The condition of friend A winning = Coin toss sequence HH shows up

The condition of friend B winning = Coin toss sequence TH shows up

The number of possible outcomes = TT, TH, HH, HT = 4

(TH and HT are taken as different for the game to be fair)

The number of required outcome = HH = 1

Therefore;

The probability of friend A winning with HH = 1/4.

Ikyume is 62m away from Amadi, on a bearing of 012°. Becky is 42m away from Ikyume and on bearing of 082°. How far is Amadi from Becky, and on what bearing?

Answers

Answer:

Amadi is 86m far from Becky

Amadi is on the bearing of 78° .

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given ,

let I represent Ikyume

A represent Amadi  and B represent Becky

From the information in the diagrammatic expression shown below:

Using cosine rule;

i² = a² + b² - 2ab cos (I)

i² = 42² + 62² - 2(42×62) cos (110°)

i² =  1764 + 3844 - 5208 (- 0.342)

i² =  1764 + 3844 -  ( - 1781.136)

i² = 1764 + 3844 + 1781.136

i² = 7389.136

i = [tex]\mathtt{\sqrt{7389.136}}[/tex]

i = 85.96

i [tex]\simeq[/tex] 86 m

Amadi is 86m far from Becky

From  point I , 12° = 12° at point A (alternate  angles)

In that quadrant = 90 - 12° = 78°

Therefore, Amadi is on the bearing of 78° .

need help with my hw make H the subject of the formula x = 5h + 8

Answers

Answer:

h = (x - 8)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out expression

x = 5h + 8

Step 2: Isolate variable h (Subtract 8 on both sides)

x - 8 = 5h

Step 3: Isolate h (Divide both sides by 5)

(x - 8)/5 = h

Step 4: Rewrite

h = (x - 8)/5

What is a21 of the arithmetic sequence for which a7=−19 and a10=−28? A. -35 B. 35 C. -58 D. -61

Answers

Answer:

a21 = -61

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d[/tex]

[tex]-19=a_{1}+(7-1)d[/tex]

[tex]-28=a_{1}+(10-1)d[/tex] (subtract to eliminate a₁)

9 = -3d

d = -3

-19 = a₁ + (6)(-3)

-1 = a

a21 = -1 + (21 - 1)(-3)

= -61

Answer:

-61 (Answer D)

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for an arithmetic sequence with common difference d and first term a(1) is

a(n) = a(1) + d(n - 1)

Therefore, a(7) = -19 = a(1) + d(7 - 1), or a(7) = a(1) + d(6) = -19

and a(10) = a(1) + d(10 - 1) = -28, or a(1) + d(10 - 1) = -28

Solving the first equation a(1) + d(6) = -19 for a(1) yields a(1) = -19 - 6d.  We substitute this result for a(1) in the second equation:

-19 - 6d + 9d = -28.  Grouping like terms together, we get:

3d = -9, and so d = -3.

Going back to an earlier result:  a(1) = -19 - 6d.

Here, a(1) = -19 - 6(-3), or a(1) = -1.

Then the formula specifically for this case is a(n) = -1 - 3(n - 1)

and so a(21) = -1 - 3(20) = -61 (Answer D)

D( Geese fly in V formation. The V forms a right angle that has 16 geese on 1 side and 12 geese on the other side. How many gesse would fill in the gap between the ends of each sides of the V formation?

Answers

Answer:

20 gesse will fill the gap

Explanation:

We were told that the V forms a right angle which means the angle is at 90 degrees.

From trigonometry, for a right angle triangle we have the opposite, hypotenose and adjacent, then here the 12 side is the opposite and 16 sides is the adjacent, then the hypotenose will be the gap we are looking for using below expression

a²+ b²= c²

So,

12²+ 16²= c²

144 + 256 = c²

c=√(144 + 256)

c = √400

c=20

Therefore, 20 gesse will fly in the missing gap of the V formation.

A plane can be named by a single letter, such as L in this problem, or by any three non-collinear points that lie on the plane. Non-collinear points are points that do not all lie in a single line.

Points M, N, O, and U lie on plane L, so you can choose any 3 of the 4 points to name the plane with, but make sure all 3 points are non-collinear.

To name plane L with points, you cannot use points MNO together since they are collinear, but you can name it using point U plus any two of the points M, N, and O.

After years of maintaining a steady population of 32,000, the population of a town begins to grow exponentially. After 1 year and an increase of 8% per year, the population is 34,560. Which equation can be used to predict, y, the number of people living in the town after x years? (Round population values to the nearest whole number.) y = 32,000(1.08)x y = 32,000(0.08)x y = 34,560(1.08)x y = 34,560(0.08)x

Answers

Answer:

y = 32,000(1.08)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth equation is y = a(1 + r)^x, where a is the initial amount, r is rate as a decimal, and x is the time.

In this situation, 32,000 is the initial amount (a) and 0.08 is the rate (r)

If we plug these into the equation, we get the equation y = 32,000(1.08)^x

So, y = 32,000(1.08)^x is the correct answer.

Write an equation in Ax+By=C

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

3x + 2y = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of the line using a point and the slope we use the formula

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where

m is the slope

(x1 , y1) is the point

From the question

slope = -3/2

Point = (4,8)

So the equation of the line is

[tex]y - 8 = - \frac{3}{2} (x - 4)[/tex]

Multiply through by 2

2y - 16 = -3( x - 4)

2y - 16 = - 3x + 12

3x + 2y = 16 + 12

We have the final answer as

3x + 2y = 28

Answers

Kofi is older than kweku

kofi's age = (5x-4) years

kweku's age = (2x+1) years

a. write down an expression, interns of x,for how much old is Kofi than kweku

Equate the ages of Kofi and kweku

(5x - 4) = (2x + 1)

5x - 4 = 2x + 1

5x - 2x = 1 + 4

3x = 5

3x - 5

B.) if Kofi is tens years older than kweku, find the value of x and the ages of Kofi and kweku

Then,

(5x-4) = (2x + 1) + 10

5x - 4 = 2x + 1 + 10

5x - 2x = 1 + 10 + 4

3x = 15

x = 5

Kofi's age : 5x - 4

372 to the nearest 100

Answers

Answer: 400

Explanation: To round 372 to the nearest hundred, we first find the digit in the rounding place which in this case is the 3 in the hundreds place.

To decide whether to round up or down, we look

at the digit to the right of the 3, which is 7.

According to the rules of rounding, if the digit to the right of the

rounding place is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.

So in this problem, since 7 is greater than or equal to 5, we round up.

This means that we add 1 to the 3 in the rounding place

to get 4 and all digits to the right of 4 become 0.

So 372 rounded to the nearest hundred is 400.

Can someone please help me with this question? The y is throwing me off.

Answers

Answers:

x = 21

y = 8

=========================================================

Explanation:

Since the y is giving you trouble, I recommend ignoring it for now. Luckily we don't need the y value at first.

Let's solve for x.

The two angles (10x-61) and (x+10) form a straight angle which is 180 degrees.

So,

(10x-61) + (x+10) = 180

10x-61 + x+10 = 180

11x - 51 = 180

11x-51+51 = 180+51 .... adding 51 to both sides

11x = 231

11x/11 = 231/11 .... dividing both sides by 11

x = 21

Since x = 21, the upper right angle (10x-61) is equal to

10x-61 = 10*21-61 = 210-61 = 149

-------------

We can now focus on the (18y+5) angle. This is set equal to 149 since vertical angles are congruent

18y+5 = 149

18y+5-5 = 149-5 ... subtracting 5 from both sides

18y = 144

18y/18 = 144/18 .... dividing both sides by 18

y = 8

--------------

Or we could add the angles (18y+5) and (x+10), set them equal to 180, and solve for y like that

(18y+5)+(x+10) = 180

18y+5 + x+10 = 180

18y+5+21+10 = 180 .... plug in x = 21

18y+36 = 180

18y+36-36 = 180-36 ... subtract 36 from both sides

18y = 144

18y/18 = 144/18 .... dividing both sides by 18

y = 8

We get the same result.

--------------

As a check, plugging y = 8 into 18y+5 should lead to 149

18y+5 = 18*8+5 = 144+5 = 149

This confirms the y value answer
