we are given

A coin is flipped until 3 heads in succession occur

so, firstly, we will find sample space

S={HHH , THHH , HTHHH, TTHHH , TTTHHH , HTTHHH , THTHHH , HHTHHHH, ......}

now, we are given that

list only those elements of the sample space that require 6 or less tosses

so, we can see that sample space

S={HHH , THHH , HTHHH, TTHHH , TTTHHH , HTTHHH , THTHHH , HHTHHHH, ......}

There are infinite such possibilities

so, there are infinite number of elements in space

and we know that

discrete sample space will always have finite elements

but we have infinite number of sample space elements here

so, this is not discrete sample space...........Answer

The length of time a person takes to decide which shoes to purchase is normally distributed with a mean of 8.21 minutes and a st
MaRussiya [10]

Correct answer is: P(x<6) is 0.123 and it is usual.

Solution:-

Given that the time a person takes to decide which shoes to purchase follows normal distribution. Which has mean = 8.21 minutes and standard deviation 1.90

Then probability of individual takes less than 6 minutes is

P(X<6) = P(z

           = P(z

           = 0.1230

Typically we say an event with a probability less than 5% is unusual.

But here P(X<6) = 0.123 is greater than 5% hence this is usual.

Answer:

  $110

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a, b, and c represent the earnings of Alan, Bob, and Charles. The problem statement tells us ...

  a + b + c = 480 . . . . . . the combined total of their earnings

  -a + b = 40 . . . . . . . . . . Bob earned 40 more than Alan

  2a - c = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . Charles earned twice as much as Alan

Adding the first and third equations, we get ...

  (a + b + c) + (2a - c) = (480) + (0)

  3a + b = 480

Subtracting the second equation gives ...

  (3a +b) - (-a +b) = (480) -(40)

  4a = 440 . . . . . . . . simplify

  a = 110 . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of a

Alan earned $110.

_____

<em>Check</em>

Bob earned $40 more, so $150. Charles earned twice as much, so $220.

The total is then $110 +150 +220 = $480 . . . . as required
