1/2*1/2*1/2=1/8

Therefore, the probability of tails being occurred 3 times is 1/8.

Hope this helps!

For three tosses of the coin all the possible outcomes are:
.
H-H-H
T-H-H
H-T-H
H-H-T
T-H-T
T-T-H
H-T-T
T-T-T

These eight possible outcomes are the sample space.
To find the probability of tossing tails tree times look down the sample space list and find any outcome that has exactly two H's.
The possibilities are only T-T-T.
This means that one of the eight possible outcomes contain exactly three tails. Therefore,
the probability of throwing exactly two heads in three tosses of the coin is 1 out of 8,

Let x be the amount of cement and y be the amount of sand. If the ratio of cement to sand for mortar is 1:3, then $\frac{x}{y} = \frac{1}{3}$ and y=3x.

So, if Sandy puts in x=7 shovels of cement, then she puts $y=3\cdot 7=21$ shovels of sand.

Answer: 21 shovels of sand.

Correct Inputs :-

In ΔABC right angled at A, D and E are points on BC, C such that BD = CD and AD ⊥ BC

$\underline{\underline{\large\bf{Solution:-}}}\\$

$\longrightarrow$ Let us know about definition of altitude first. The altitude of a triangle is the perpendicular line segment drawn from the vertex to the opposite side of the triangle.

$\leadsto$ Median is the line segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.

Let us Check all options one by one

CD is line segment which starts from vertex C but don't falls on opposite side AB thus it is not an altitude.❌

BA is line segment which starts from vertex B and falls perpendicularly on opposite sides AC and is thus an altitude.✔️

AD is line segment which starts from vertex A and falls perpendicularly on opposite side BC and is thus an altitude.✔️

AE is a line segment which starts from vertex A but doesn't falls perpendicularly on opposite side BC and is thus not an altitude.❌

AD falls on BC with D as mid point because BD = CD and is thus a median. ✔️
