<h3>What is probability?</h3>

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have:

A coin toss is used to determine which team will receive the ball at the beginning of a football game.

The Cougars always choose tails in the toss.

There will total of 8 cases and in 8 cases there will be three cases in which exactly two heads will come so,

3:8

The cases = {TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, HHT, HTH, HHT, HHH}

Thus, the odds in favor of the Cougars losing the toss in exactly two of three games is 3:8 option second is correct.

Answer:

x ≤3

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4+ 2x)≥ 5x+ 5

distribute

8+4x ≥ 5x+ 5

Subtract 4x from each side

8+4x-4x≥ 5x-4x+ 5

8  ≥ x+ 5

Subtract 5 from each side

8-5 ≥ x+ 5-5

3 ≥ x

x ≤3

Naomi went on a 6.5 mile hike. In the morning she hiked 1.75 miles, rested,and then hiked 2.4 more miles. She completed the hike
Ulleksa [173]
She hiked 6.5 miles in total and it basically tells you she hiked 1.75 miles and 2.4 miles in the morning which equals 4.15 miles in the morning. to find how many miles she walked in the afternoon you just subtract the morning miles 4.15 from the total miles 6.5
6.5-4.15=2.35
then to find how many more miles she walked in the morning you just subtract the morning from the afternoon
4.15-2.35=1.8 miles

she hiked 1.8 more miles in the morning

The following table shows the probability of rolling the numbers 1 through 6 on a fair die.
satela [25.4K]
First of all find the mean that is:

Mean = (1+2+3+4+5+6)/6 = 3.5

1) Draw a frequency distribution table as shown here below


X                X - Mean      (X-Mean)²


1                1-3.5                 (-2.5)²
2                2-3.5                 (-1.5)²
3                3-3.5                 (-0.5)²
4                4-3.5                 (0.5)²
5                5-3.5                 (1.5)²
6                6-3.5                 (2.5)²
---              -------              -------------
∑=21         ∑=0                ∑ = 17.5  Note than the number of classes is n= 6

Variance  = σ² = 17.5/<span>6 = 2.917

</span>Standard deviation = √σ²  = √2.917==> σ =1.708 (answer C)
