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.
Answer:
The amount in the account after six years is $2,288.98
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount that will be in an account that has a principal that is compounded quarterly.
To calculate this amount, we use the formula below
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
Where P is the amount deposited which is $1,750
r is the rate which is 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045
t is the number of years which is 6 years
n is the number of times per year, the interest is compounded which is 4(quarterly means every 3 months)
we plug these values into the equation
A = 1750( 1 + 0.045/4)^(4 * 6)
A = 1750( 1 + 0.01125)^24
A = 1750( 1.01125)^24
A = 2,288.98
The amount in the account after 6 years is $2,288.98
