Answer: The probability is 1/8

Explanation:

Probability is a ratio of the number of relevant outcomes and total number of possible outcomes.

We are flipping the coin three times.

The number of relevant outcomes is 1 (one triple {Head, Head, Tail})

The number of all possible outcomes is the product of 2 possibilities (Head or Tail) on first toss, times another 2 on second, times another 2 on third, so 2^3 = 8.

The probability P = 1/8

What is the average rate of change between f (1) and f (5) in the function f (x) = x2 - x - 6 ?

NISA [10]

Answer:

${ \tt{average = \frac{f(1) + f(5)}{2} }} \\ \\ = { \tt{ \frac{( {1}^{2} - 1 - 6) + ( {5}^{2} - 5 - 6) }{2} }} \\ = \frac{ - 6 + 14}{2} \\ \\ = { \tt{4}}$

JKLM is a rhombus. KM is 6 and JL is 8. Find the perimeter of the rhombus. image of rhombus JKLM with diagonals JL and KM inters

VLD [36.1K]

If a quadrilateral is a rhombus then:

i) all its sides have equal length,

and

ii) the 2 diagonals are perpendicular and bisect each other.

The 2 diagonals of rhombus JKLM intersect at N.

Then m(MNJ)=90°, |JN|=4 and |NM|=3 units

thus, by the Pythagorean theorem,

$|MJ|= \sqrt{ 3^{2} + 4^{2} }= \sqrt{9+16}= \sqrt{25}=5$

The perimeter of the rhombus is 4*5 units=20 units.

Answer: 20 units
