The probability that the next toss will be heads is 1/8.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

The likelihood of an event occurring is described by probability. We frequently have to make forecasts about the future in real life. We may or may not be aware of the outcome of an event. When this happens, we declare that there is a chance the event will take place.

Using the probability formula, one can determine the likelihood of an event by dividing the favorable number of possibilities by the total number of options. Since the favorable number of outcomes can never be greater than the entire number of outcomes, the probability of an event happening can range from 0 to 1.

Probability of getting two tails and next heads in three tosses is,

=1/2*1/2*1/2

=1/8

The limit is equivalent to the value of the derivative of $\cos x$ at $x=\dfrac\pi2$ . (See definition of derivative)

$(\cos x)'=-\sin x\implies (\cos x)'\bigg|_{x=\pi/2}=-\sin\dfrac\pi2=-1$

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (9, −3) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x−3y=6 ?

vlabodo [156]

2x - 3y = 6
-3y = -2x + 6
y = 2/3x - 2....the slope here is 2/3. A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 2/3
(9,-3)...x = 9 and y = -3
now we sub and find b, the y int
-3 = 2/3(9) + b
-3 = 6 + b
-3 - 6 = b
-9 = b

so ur parallel equation is : y = 2/3x - 9 <== or 2x -3y = 27

1. Simplify the expression:<br> 4+36+(10-8)’-3+7<br> A. 130<br> B. 100<br> C. 38<br> D. 37

Alika [10]

Answer:

The answer isn't in the options anyway I'll write it. the answer is 46.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to BODMAS rule - addition should be done first so

4+36= 40 and -3 +7 = 4 so 40+4 ,= 44

then we should do subtracting so, 10-8 = 2

to conclude we should bring the equation to an end so,

44+2 = 46

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU
