Find the set of outcomes that occur when we flip 3 coins and obtain at least two tails.

1 answer:

5 0

First, I would show all the outcomes possible. To determine the number of the total outcomes, you use the formula: rⁿ, where r is the number of outcomes in 1 flip, and n is the number of lips. Thus, 2³ = 8 outcomes. These outcomes are:

1. HHH
2. TTT
3. HHT
4. HTT
5. HTH
6. THH
7. TTH
8. THT

From the given outcomes, there are 3 outcomes that has at least two tails. These are the ones in bold characters.

I need help. this is the problem x^2/3+10=7x^1/3

Arlecino [84]

$\it x^{\frac{2}{3}}+10=7x^{\frac{1}{3}} \Leftrightarrow (x^{\frac{1}{3}})^2-7x^{\frac{1}
 {3}} +10=0 
\\\;\\
We\ note\ x^{\frac{1}{3}} =t \ \ and \ the \ equation \ will \ be:
\\\;\\
t^2-7t+10 = 0 \Leftrightarrow t^2 -2t-5t+10=0 \Leftrightarrow t(t-2) -5(t-2)=0$

$\it \Leftrightarrow (t-2)(t-5)=0 
\\\;\\
t-2=0 \Rightarrow t=2 \Rightarrow x^{\frac{1}{3}}=2 \Rightarrow (x^{\frac{1}{3}})^3 =2^3 \Rightarrow x = 8
\\\;\\
t-5=0 \Rightarrow t=5 \Rightarrow x^{\frac{1}{3}}= 5 \Rightarrow (x^{\frac{1}{3}})^3 = 5^3 \Rightarrow x = 125$

S = {8; 125}
