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.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first integer will be "l" so the second will be l + 1, third will be l + 2, fourth will be l + 3, and the fifth will be l + 4. The question says "the greatest is g" so that means that the fifth integer is the greatest meaning that is the value of g. Now that we know the value of g, we can substitute it into the equation they gave us and simplify.

l+(l+4)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Elanor wants to estimate the number of frogs in a reservoir.
She catches 90 frogs from the reservoir and marks them with a non-harmful dye.
Elanor then returns the frogs to the reservoir.
The next day she catches another 70 frogs and 10 of these are marked with the dye.
Work out an estimate for the total number of frogs in the reservoir.

Answers

Answer:

approximately 150 frogs

Step-by-step explanation:

To find your estimate, you have to add 90 + 60 because from the 70 that Elanor caught the second day, 10 of them were the ones that she had caught the day before so you have to do 70 - 10 = 60. Therefore, 90 + 60 = 150 estimated frogs.

What were Malcolm's and Ravi's maximum speeds?

Answers

Answer:

Malcom's maximum speed = 200 km/h

Ravi's maximum speed = 320 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m = Malcom's maximum speed

Let r = Ravi's maximum speed

Average of their maximum speed would be represented as [tex] \frac{m + r}{2} = 260 [/tex]

[tex] m + r = 520 [/tex].

Make m the subject of the formula by subtracting r from both sides:

[tex] m = 520 - r [/tex]. Let this be equation 1.

Given that Malcom's speed (m), when doubled is 80 km/h more than that of Ravi (r). This can be expressed as: [tex] 2m = r + 80 [/tex]. This is equation 2.

Plug in (520 - r) into equation 2 to replace m:

[tex] 2(520 - r) = r + 80 [/tex]

[tex] 1040 - 2r = r + 80 [/tex]

Solve for r. Subtract 1040 from both sides:

[tex] 1040 - 2r - 1040 = r + 80 - 1040 [/tex]

[tex] - 2r = r - 960 [/tex]

Subtract r from both sides

[tex] - 2r - r = r - 960 - r [/tex]

[tex] - 3r = - 960 [/tex]

Divide both sides by -3

[tex] \frac{-3r}{-3} = \frac{-960}{-3} [/tex]

[tex] r = 320 [/tex]

To find m, plug in the value of r into equation 1.

[tex] m = 520 - r [/tex]. =>Equation 1

[tex] m = 520 - 320 [/tex]

[tex] m = 200 [/tex].

Malcom's maximum speed = m = 200 km/h

Ravi's maximum speed = r = 320 km/h

let the cp be rs x. if a man gains 20% profit by selling an article for rs 816. find cp​

Answers

Answer:

Let, the c.p be x.

Given,

profit % = 20%

S.P = rs 816

c.p = x

We know,

profit = p% of c.p

         = [tex]\frac{20}{100}[/tex] * x

         = [tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex]

now,

   C.p = profit + s.p.

        x = [tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex] + 816

        x = [tex]\frac{x+ 4080}{5}[/tex]

       5x = x + 4080

       5x-x = 4080

       4x = 4080

         x = [tex]\frac{4080}{4}[/tex]

         x = Rs 1080

Hence, the c.p is Rs. 1080

Clifton drove for 3 hours at 52 mph. How fast must he drive during the next hour in order to have an average speed of 55 mph?

Answers

Answer:

64 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Speed for the first 3 hours = 52 mph

Average speed for 4 hours = 55 mph

To find:

Speed for the next hour = ?

Solution:

Formula for average speed is given as:

[tex]Average\ Speed = \dfrac{Total\ Distance}{Total \ Time \ Taken}[/tex]

Formula for Distance:

[tex]Distance =Speed \times Time[/tex]

Distance traveled in first 3 hours:

[tex]Distance =52\times 3 = 156\ miles[/tex]

Let the speed for the next hour = u mph

Distance traveled in 1 hour = [tex]u \times 1 = u\ miles[/tex]

Total distance traveled = (156 + u) miles

Total time = 4 hours

Average Speed = 55 mph

Putting the values in formula:

[tex]55 = \dfrac{156+u}{4}\\\Rightarrow 220 = 156+u\\\Rightarrow \bold{u = 64\ mph }[/tex]

So, the answer is: 64 mph

Answers

179 is the answer

hope it helps

Answer:

179 = CLXXIX = 100 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 10 − 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers close to CLXXIX

Below are the numbers CLXXVI through CLXXXII, which are close to CLXXIX. The right column shows how each roman numeral adds up to the total.

176 = CLXXVI = 100 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1

177 = CLXXVII = 100 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 + 1

178 = CLXXVIII = 100 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 1

179 = CLXXIX = 100 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 10 − 1

180 = CLXXX = 100 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 10

181 = CLXXXI = 100 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1

Shawn wanted to model the number 13,450 using 13,450 using base-ten blocks how many large cubes, flats, and longs does he need to model the number

Answers

Answer:

13 cubes, 4 flats, 5 longs

Step-by-step explanation:

Base-ten is basically just analyzing the place values of each number in the given value.

A cube represents 1,000, a flat represents 100, and a long represents 10.

Looking at the number 13,450, we can see that there are 13 thousands in this (13,000). This means that we will need 13 cubes.

We can also see that there are 4 hundreds in this (400), meaning we need 4 flats.

Also, there are 5 tens in this (50), so we need 5 longs.
