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

<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.

Find x if AB = 9, BC = 2x - 5,<br> and AC = x + 9
Oxana [17]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the fact that line segments AB and BC are parts of the whole line segment AC, we can write the following equation:

AB + BC = AC

Now, using the given values, we can substitute in for the equation and solve for x:

AB + BC = AC

9 + 2x - 5 = x + 9

2x + 4 = x + 9

x = 5

Thus, we have found that for these sets of equations for these line segments, our value for x should be 5.

Cheers.

Pls help in this aaaaaa

The question is incorrect. X is not defined UNLESS the hexagon is a regular hexagon, which means that all sides are equal (given) AND all angles are equal (not given).

Error in question aside, and  ASSUMING the hexagon is regular, you can apply the principle that
1. the sum of exterior angles of ANY polygon is 360.
2. the sum of exterior angles and interior angles at EACH vertex is 180.
3. Multiply sum from (2) above by the number of vertices and subtract 360 gives the sum of the interior angles.
4. IF the polygon is regular (all angles equal), then each interior angle equals the result from (3) divided by n, the number of vertices.

Example for a regular heptagon (7 sides, 7 verfices).
1. Sum of exterior angles = 360
2. sum of interior and exterior angles at EACH vertex=180
3. multiply 180 by 7, subtract 360
180*7-360=900
4. since heptagon is regular, each interior angle equals 900/7=128.57 deg.
