By using the trial method we get a total number of trials taken by Charlie to see both sides of both the coins is 4.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is the name of the area of mathematics that deals with the examination of random events. The ratio of favorable occurrences to the total number of events is used to calculate an event's probability.

P(E) = F(E)/T (E)P(E)

It stands for the probability that an event will occur.

F(E) = Amount of favorable occurrences

Total number of trials (T(E))

Given that Charlie has 2 fair coins.

If he tosses the pair of coins simultaneously, then the number of samples can be HH, HT, TH, TT.

So to see both sides of both the coins he should toss the coin four times.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 = 1/9 + x ...multiply by LCD of 72

9 = 8 + 72x

9 - 8 = 72x

1 = 72x

1/72 = x

1/8 = 1/10 + x....multiply by 40

5 = 4 + 40x

5 - 4 = 40x

1 = 40x

1/40 = x

1/8 = 1/11 + x....multiply by 88

11 = 8 + 88x

11 - 8 = 88x

3 = 88x

3/88 = x

can all unit fractions be made in more then 1 way like this ?

not to sure because that last one....because it has been that a unit fraction is the outcome of adding together 2 unit fractions...but that last one...3/88 is not a unit fraction

Ms. Novas bought 3 pounds of jelly beans. She kept 8 ounces for her family and gave the rest to her friends. She gave each frien
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A = 40/n

Therefore, she gave each friend 40/n ounces of jelly beans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total amount of jelly beans To = 3 pounds = 3×16 ounces = 48 ounces

Total amount kept for family Ta = 8 ounces

Total amount given to friends = Ti

Number of friends = n

Amount given to each friend = A

Ti = To - Ta

A = Ti/n = (To-Ta)/n

A = (48 - 8)/n

A = 40/n

Therefore she gave each friend 40/n ounces of jelly beans.

An ice cream shop sells 6 different flavors, 4 toppings, and 3 types of cones. How many different combinations of two different
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

360 combinations

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of different combinations of 2 different flavors, 1 topping, and 1 cone, we are going to use the rule of multiplication as:

<u>               6          </u>* <u>        5             </u> * <u>            4           </u>* <u>          3             </u>= 360

       1st flavor           2nd flavor              topping              cone

Because first, we have 6 possible options for the flavor, then we only have 5 possible options for the 2nd flavor. Then, we have 4 options for the topping and finally, we have 3 options for the cone.

It means that there are 360 different combinations of two different flavors, one topping, and one cone are possible
