We should each take these probabilities first individually.
Probability of tails in a coin toss = 1/2
Probability of <span>drawing letter T from the alphabet = 1/26
Probability of 2 tails in 2 coin toss = 1/4
Sample space = {HH, TT, HT, TH}

Add these together since these events happen after another = 1/2 + 1/26 / + 1/4 = 41/52

The final probability is 41/52</span>

P(A) = P(8) + P(9) + P(10) = 3/10 so P(A complement) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 3/10 = 7/10 - D

Calculate the area of triangle ABC with altitude CD, given A (6,0) B(1,5) C (2,0) and D (4,2)
Elina [12.6K]
So hmm check the picture below

the height or altitude is CD
and the base is AB

how long are those? well \bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\&#10;\begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;A&({{ 6}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;B&({{ 1}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})\\\\&#10;C&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;D&({{ 4}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})&#10;\end{array}\qquad &#10;%  distance value&#10;d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;AB=\sqrt{(1-6)^2+(5-0)^2}\qquad \qquad CD=\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(2-0)^2}

Prove that if xy &gt; 0, then either x &gt; 0 and y &gt; 0 or x &lt; 0 and y &lt; 0
Rufina [12.5K]

The rule of product states that:

  • (+) \cdot (+) = (+)
  • (+) \cdot (-) = (-)
  • (-) \cdot (+) = (-)
  • (-) \cdot (-) = (+)

So, a product is positive if and only if both factors have the same sign, and is negative if only if the factors have opposite sign.

5+-4*1/3<br><br> Show work pls
polet [3.4K]
To solve this, we need to follow <em>PEMDAS </em>(Order of Operations)

P: Parenthesis
E: Exponents
M: Multiplication
D: Division
A: Addition
S: Subtraction

Following this order of math will get you your answer for any math problem.

First we'll do -4*1/3, which gets us -4/3. Then we'll add 5 to get 3 \frac{2}{3}
