For an in-class demonstration, a teacher flips a fair coin 5 times, and each of the 5 times it lands on heads. A student argues

that it's more likely to land on tails on the next flip. What, if anything, is incorrect about the student's logic?
A.
The student's logic is incorrect; since a coin being flipped 5 times is 5 independent events, the probability of the next flip landing on heads is still 1/2.
B.
The student's logic is incorrect; since a coin being flipped 5 times is 5 dependent events, the probability of the next flip landing on heads is still 1/2
C.
There is nothing wrong with the student's logic; because a coin being flipped 5 times is 5 independent events, the probability the next flip will land on heads is affected by the previous outcomes.
D.
There is nothing wrong with the student's logic; because a coin being flipped 5 times is 5 dependent events, the probability the next flip will land on heads is affected by the previous outcomes.

The linear function f (x) and g(x) are represented on the graph where g(x) is a tranfomation of f(x) I need help with part A par
Sav [38]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

We can shift f(x) to the left or we can shift f(x) up to make it become g(x)

Part B

y = f(x + k)  k > 0 moves it left

Using the point ( 2,8) for f(x) and ( 0,8) for g(x)

k is 2 units

g(x) = f(x+2)

y = f(x) + k  k > 0 moves it up

Using the point ( 0,-2) for f(x) and ( 0,8) for g(x)

The difference between -2 and 8 is 10

k = 10

g(x) = f(x) + 10

Part C

for the shift to the left    g(x) = f(x+2)

for the shift up g(x) = f(x) + 10

Question 5 <br> show the work please
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

D) 27

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a rectangle so the opposite sides are congruent to each other.

<em />

<em>Long Side:</em>

6x + 6 = 42

subtract 6 from both sides:

6x = 36

divide both sides by 6:

x = 6

<em />

<em>Short Side:</em>

5y + 5 = 30

subtract 5 from both sides:

5y = 25

divide both sides by 5:

y = 5

<em />

<em>The Equation:</em>

2x + 3y

substitute in the values:

2(6) + 3(5)

do the multiplication:

12 + 15

add the values together:

27

For the data set below, calculate the standard deviation to the nearest hundredth decimal place. 27 38 47 42 33 56 37 57 38 52
mihalych1998 [28]
In order to calculate standard deviation, apply the standard deviation formula, which is given in the attached file. In this formula, we are finding the square root of the sum of the square of given values less their mean value (the sum of the given numbers divided to their amount) divided to N-1, where N is the amount of the given numbers. When we calculate the mean, it is 42.7 and the standard deviation is 10.02275
