8 0

Answer:

\large\boxed{\large\boxed{Probability=1/256\approx  0.0039}}

Explanation:

Since, there are two possible outcomes for every toss (head or tail), the sample space for<em> a coin tossed 8 times</em> is 2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2 = 2⁸ = 256.

<em>Landing on heads all 8 times</em> is just one of the possible outcomes: HHHHHHHH ⇒ 1.

Hence, the <em>probability </em>is calculated from its own definition:

Probability = number of favorable outcomes / number of possible outcomes

  • Probability=1/256\approx  0.0039\text{         }\leftarrow answer

butalik [34]

Answer:

The equation is following the mathematical rule of multiplying exponents.

Step-by-step explanation:

As an example to back up the answer, when you have half of a dollar, that is $0.50, if you took a half (1/2) of $0.50 that would be one fourth (1/4) of a dollar, but half of 50 cents ($0.50) A similar thing is happening with this problem. When you have two numbers (2 and 4) when you multiply them together, they equal to eight (8) for this problem, when you multiply two exponents together, you are raising the coefficient (a real number like 6) to the power of 2, and then taking that number and multiplying it by the power of 4. This is similar to the half of 50 cents, is equal to 1/4 of dollar  ($0.25)

Hope this helps explain multiplying exponents together, and the mathematical rule behind it.

Your inequality is (x being number of people):
175≥35+10x+3x

First, combine like terms so your new inequality is:
175≥35+13x
Then subtract 35 from both sides which makes it:
140≥13x
then divide 140 by 13 making it:
<span>10.769≥x
</span>But because you can't have .769 of a person the actual answer is 10
then you have to subtract 1 because he isn't including himself and there is the answer!:
9≥x
