A nickel and dime are flipped. what is the probability of getting tails , then heads?

1 answer:

6 0

The probability of getting heads on the toss of a coin is 0.5. If we consider all possible outcomes of the toss of two coins as shown, there is only one outcome of the four in which both coins have come up heads, so the probability of getting heads on both coins is 0.25.

Answer:

1.27

Took what each block represented and added them together.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first block represents .89, and the second represents .38.

To add these, we just line them up and add as we usually would.

.89 + .38 = 1.27

A landscaper is designing a flower garden in the shape of a trapezoid. She wants the shorter base to be 3 yards greater than the

wariber [46]

The formula for the area of a trapezium is as follows:

area=12(a+b)h

 Let a be the shorter base. Then a = h + 3.
Let b be the longer base. Then b = h + 7.

Substituting these values for a and b in the general formula gives: 
area = 225 = 12(h+3+h+7)h = h^2+5h

So you need to solve the following quadratic:

h^2+5h−225=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=5, c=-225.

h=−b±√b2−4ac2ah=−(5)±√(5)2−4(1)(−225)2(1)h=−5±√9252h=−5/2+5/2√37 or h=−5/2+−5/2√37

Answer:h=−5/2+52√37 or h=−5/2+−5/2√37

Answer:

$5.75 + \frac{x}{2} = - 5 \\ \frac{x}{2} = - 5 - 5.75 \\ \frac{x}{2} = - 10.75 \\ x = - 21.5$
