Answer:

Probability of landing  cream cheese side up 3 times is tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting cheese side up is one half (\frac{1}{2}.

And this probability does not depend on the result of the last time you dropped it or the result before that.

So every time you drop a piece of toast the probability of getting cheese side up is one half (\frac{1}{2}.

Charlie has already dropped it once (1st time) and it landed on cream cheese side up. So probability for this is 1 because it has already happened.

Next time (2nd time) he drops, the probability of landing cream cheese side up is \frac{1}{2}

When he drops the piece of toast again (3rd time) the probability of landing cheese side up is again \frac{1}{2}.

So the probability of landing  cream cheese side up 3 times is,

1*\frac{1}{2} *\frac{1}{2}

=\frac{1}{4}

Answer:

Long wings: 0

Short wings: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Genotype of the flies: ww

The cross will yield the genotype ww and the flies will express the recessive phenotype which is short wings.

The probability for long wings will be 0 as there is no dominant allele present. The probability for short wings will be 100 as all the flies will have short wings.

Hope that helps.

Convert the function into intercept form. Show your work. y=-x^2+5x+36
UkoKoshka [18]
Y = -x2 + 5x + 36 <span>→ y = -(x2 -5x -36)


</span><span>→ y =  -(x2 - 9x +4x - 36)


</span><span>→ y = -[x(x-9) + 4(x - 9)]


</span><span>→ y = -(x - 9)(x + 4)

Your answer would be </span>y=-(x-9)(x+4).

Select the assumption necessary to start an indirect proof of the statement. If 3a+7 &lt; 28, then a&lt;7.
pashok25 [27]
When applying indirect proofs, we assume the negation of the conclusion is true, and show that this assumption would lead to nonsense, or contradiction.

In our case we assume a is not smaller than 7, that is we assume a≥7.

a≥7 then, multiplying both sides by 3:
3a≥21, then, adding both sides 7:

3a+7≥28,

which is a contradiction because 3a+7 is smaller than 28.

So our assumption is wrong, which means the opposite of it is correct.


Answer: assume a≥7

What is the slope of (15,9), (-14,-9)
Lady bird [3.3K]
The formula for slope:

m = \frac{y_{2} - y_1 }{x_2-x_1}

\frac{-9-9}{-14-15}

-9-9 = -18
-14-15 = -29

\frac{-18}{-29}
