its unlikley because 1 out of 6 chances that youll land on a six or something and a 50 50 chance that you'll land on heads or tails. Unlikcry for te dice rills and likekly for the coins toss
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n, d, q represent the numbers of nickels, dimes, and quarters. The problem statement tells us ...
n +d +q = 37
n = d +4
q = n +2
___
Rearranging the second equation gives ...
d = n -4
Substituting that into the first, we get ...
n + (n -4) +q = 37
2n +q = 41 . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify
Rearranging the third original equation gives ...
n = q -2
Substituting into the equation we just made, we get ...
2(q -2) +q = 41
3q = 45 . . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify
q = 15 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Joe has 15 quarters.

<em>Check</em>
The number of nickels is 2 fewer, so is 13. The number of dimes is 4 fewer than that, so is 9. The total number of coins is 15 + 13 + 9 = 37, as required.
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Use Pythagorean Theorem
If you are looking for leg given the other sides of the right triangle: just do bigger square minus small square
and take square root
so 29^2 - 20^2
And then sqrt it!
sqrt(29^2-20^2)

Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each time after the person gets off the scale, the reading is 2 lb the person's weight must be near the mean of
148-2, 151-2, 150-2, 152-2; that is to say, near the mean of 146, 149, 148, 150 = (146+149+148+150)/4 = 148.25
We could estimate the uncertainty as <em>the standard error SE
</em>
where
<em>s = standard deviation of the sample
</em>
<em>n = 4 sample size.
</em>
Computing s:
So, the uncertainty is 1.479/2 = 0.736
<em>It is not possible to estimate the bias, since it is the difference between the true weight and the mean, but we do not know the true weight.
