Answer:

0.29125 or 29.125%

Step-by-step explanation:

For the five fair coins, the probability of coming up head when flipped is 0.5, so for two flips: 0.5*0.5 = 0.25, for each of these coins. So, the probability to take on of them is 5/8, and the probability of coming up with head: (5/8)*0.25 = 0.15625.

For the unfair coins, the probability of coming up with heads is 0.6, so for two flips: 0.6*0.6 = 0.36 for each unfair coins. The probability to chose one of them is 3/8, and the probability of coming up with head: (3/8)*0.36 = 0.135.

These probabilities are dependent, so to have the total probability we must sum them:

P = 0.15625 + 0.135

P = 0.29125 or

P = 0.29125 x 100% = 29.125%

A triangle has angles measuring 15° and 45°. What is the measurement of the triangle’s third angle?
nexus9112 [7]
First you need to know that the internal angles of a triangle always equals 180°. Therefore:

15+45= 90°

Then since the angles should equal 180, you do:

180-90=90

So the missing angle equals 90°

Answer:

1 is 28 as it is just asking the area (At least I think)

2 is 22 as it is perimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

4x7 is 28 (For one)

8 (4+4) + 14 (7+7) = 22

Have a great day!

A positive integer is 5more than 23 times another. Their product is 6732. Find the two integers
aliina [53]

One integer is m.

The other integer is n.


n = 23m + 5

mn = 6732


m = 6732/n


n = 23 * 6732/n + 5


n = 154,836/n + 5


n^2 = 154,836 + 5n


n^2 - 5n - 154,836 = 0


n = [5 +- sqrt(25 + 4 * 154,836)]/2


n = (5 +- 787)/2


n = 396 or n = -391


We discard -391 because the problem is looking for positive integers.


mn = 6732


m = 6732/n = 6732/396


m = 17


Answer: The integers are 17 and 396.
