Answer:
80°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the two angles (red and blue) is 145°, so you have ...
(4x +5)° +(6x -10)° = 145°
10x = 150 . . . . . . . . divide by °, add 5, simplify
x = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10
Then the measure of the angle of interest is ...
m∠XMN = (6x -10)° = (6·15 -10)° = 80°
If I had to simplify 15/24 it would be 5/8
Answer:
a) 1/64
b) 1/4096
Step-by-step explanation:
As you can tell from the example, the exponent of 1/2 is the number of heads in a row.
a) p(6 heads in a row) = (1/2)^6 = 1/(2^6) = 1/64
b) p(12 heads in a row) = (1/2)^12 = 1/(2^12) = 1/4096

<em>Additional comment</em>
The probability of a head is 1/2 because we generally are concerned with a "fair coin." That is defined as a coin in which each of the 2 possible outcomes has the same probability, 1/2. Similarly, a "fair number cube" has 6 faces, and the probability of each is defined to be the same as any other, 1/6. Loaded dice and unfair coins do sometimes show up in probability problems.
