You have 20 cookies total in the jar.  The probability of choosing an oatmeal is 4/20, and the probability of choosing a peanut butter cookie is 8/20.  In order to find the probability of pulling a peanut butter cookie OR an oatmeal cookie, we have to add the probabilities together.  8/20 + 4/20 = 12/20 or 6/10 or 3/5.  The answer is C.

What is the probability of flipping a coin 10 times and getting tails 7 times ? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a perc
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Option C: 11.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of elements in sample space when a coin is flipped 10 times will be:

n(S) = 2^{10} \\= 1024

Let A be the event that the tails appear 7 times:

Then,

C_{(n,k)}=\frac{n!}{(k!)(n-k)!} \\where\\n=population\\k=picks\\In our case, k =7\\and\\n=10\\C_{(10,7)}= \frac{10!}{(7!)(10-3)!}\\= 120\\So, \\P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{n(S)} \\P(A) = \frac{120}{1024} \\= 0.1171\\

Converting into percentage:

P(A) = 0.1171*100=11.7%

So, option C is correct ..
