Look at it this way:
When you flip a coin, the probability of it landing with EITHER side showing
is 100%.
This leads us to the rule ...
The sum of the probabilities of
all possible outcomes is 100%.
For a coin: (probability of heads) plus (probability of tails) = 100%.
That just says: We're 100% sure that the coin will land with either
heads or tails up.
An "honest" coin gets heads 50% of the time and tails the other 50%.
But if the coin is all bent and squashed and has a feather stuck to
one side and a wad of gum on the other side so that it comes up
heads 70% of the time, then the coin isn't 'honest'. But it still has to
land EITHER heads OR tails, so the sum of the probabilities is still 100%.
So the probability of heads is 30%.
The answer to this question has to be D. 42.75 square inches.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A regular polygon is a shape with equal sides and angles. Because of this, we can write the following equation to set two sides equal to each other:
Solving, we will get a in terms of b:
Now we can substitute a for (b+3) into our equation:
Therefore, the length of each side of this polygon is .
Since the perimeter of the polygon consists of all five sides, the perimeter is:
Answer: 3j-6k+4
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to distribute the 3 to the j and the -2k since they are both in the parentheses. So it would look like (3*j) +(-2k*3)+4 and if you simplify that it is 3j-2k+4. After that there are no like terms so that is your answer.
Answer: Choice A) An economic theory that is shared by the discipline of Psychology
Through the research I've found so far, the articles mention that economic choices have a psychological link. This is because economics is basically the study of human psychology (more or less) in terms of how to allocate resources and how best to use them. The law of diminishing marginal utility is basically the idea where the concept "more is always better" is simply not true. An example would be that you are at a restaurant and there's an endless buffet. The food isn't infinite and neither is the capacity of your stomach. After a certain point, you'll find that eating another burger isn't as satisfying as eating the first few burgers. You can think of it as a graph where the curve may start with a sharp increase, but eventually it levels off.
Side note: The term "affective habituation" may be used in psychology textbooks as something very similar to the law of diminishing marginal utility.
