Step-by-step explanation:
1.
when 3 coins are flipped the following outcomes are possible
h = heads, t = tails
h h h
h h t
h t h
h t t
t h h
t h t
t t h
t t t
yes, there have to be 8 options, because we have 3 positions with 2 possible outcomes. that means
2×2×2 = 2³ = 8 possibilities.
2.
at least 2 tails means 2 or 3 t in the list item :
h t t
t h t
t t h
t t t
3.
so, 4 out of the 8 possible outcomes. the probability is then therefore
4/8 = 1/2 = 0.5
Answer:
<u>The negative solution is -4</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
x = a number
4x = x² - 32 (4 times a number is 32 less than the square of that number)
2. Let's solve for x and find the negative solution:
4x = x² - 32
-x² + 4x + 32 = 0
x² - 4x - 32 = 0 (Multiplying by - 1)
(x - 8) (x + 4) = 0
(x₁ - 8) = 0
(x₂ + 4) = 0
x₁ = 8
<u>x₂ = -4</u>
<u>The negative solution is -4</u>
(15 x g) + 1
is your answer
hope this helps
