1/7f- 5 1/2= 9/14. what is f?

1 answer:

8 0

To solve this equation, we have to isolate the variable f, or get it alone on one side of the equation.

1/7f - 5 1/2 = 9/14

To do this, we need to add 5 1/2 to both sides of the equation to 1) cancel out the - 5 1/2 on the left side of the equation, and 2) maintain equality both sides of the equation.

1/7f - 5 1/2 + 5 1/2 = 9/14 + 5 1/2

1/7f = 6 2/14

Next, we have to divide both sides by 1/7, to get rid of the coefficient of f on the left side of the equation.

1/7f ÷ 1/7 = 6 2/14 ÷ 1/7

f = 43

Therefore, the the value of f is 43.

Cadie is going to toss three coins simultaneously. What is the probability that exactly two of the coins will land on heads?

Contact [7]

For each coin, there are 2 outcomes, heads (H) or tails (T), so for the 3 coins, the number of outcomes are:

2 x 2 x 2 = 8 outcomes:

HHH / HHT / HTH / THH / TTT / TTH / THT / HTT

Out of all these outcomes, there are 3 ways, we get exactly 2 Heads:

HHT / HTH / THH

So, the probability of exactly 2 coins landing on Heads is 3/8, or 0.375
