A game starts by flipping a coin. If you get heads, then you get to roll a die and, if you roll a 4, you win the jackpot. If you

get tails, you must pick a card from a deck and, if you get a heart, you win the jackpot. What is the probability of winning the jackpot in this game?

\frac{5}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to win a jackpot.

Let p_{1} be the probability for first method and p_{2} be the probability for second method.

Probability to get a head=p_{head}=\frac{1}{2}

Probability to get a 4 in the die=p_{4}=\frac{1}{6}

Probability to get a head and get a 4 in die=[p_{1}tex]p_{head}\times p_{4}[/tex]=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{6} =\frac{1}{12}

Probability to get a tail=p_{tail}=\frac{1}{2}

Probability to get a heart=p_{heart}=\frac{13}{52} =\frac{1}{4}

Probability to get a tail and get a heart in the deck=p_{tail} \times p_{heart}=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{8}

Total probability to win a jackpot=p_{1}+p_{2}=\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{8}=\frac{5}{24}

So,probability to win a jackpot is \frac{5}{24}

Geometric proofs. I just don’t understand it and my teacher isn’t helping.
pshichka [43]
The midpoint of a line can be represented by the point that is in the very center of the line. A line segment such as AT also represents half of the line. The symbol of the tilde with the equal sign underneath represents congruence meaning the two segments are the same. Therefore each equation shows the same true statement in a different form

Can an object be in pure translation as well as in pure rotation simultaneously?
Inessa [10]
  <span>"Pure translational" motion means the object is moving from place to place but isn't rotating at all. Mathematically, that means every point on the object has the same velocity vector as every other point on the object. For example, say you have a box that's sliding along the ground, and say each corner on the box is moving at 15 feet per second at an angle of 26 degrees west of north. Since every point on the box has the same velocity vector, the motion is "pure translational." 

"Pure rotational" motion means the object is rotating, but its position in space isn't changing. Mathematically, that means that every point on the object moves in a circle around some axis (usually through the object's center of mass).

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
