Hello!!

Obviously, there are many possibilities for a real world problem. But, here's one option.

"Jeanette owes her friend, Debbie, a sum of money that is a multiple of 8. During the summer, Jeanette earns 60 dollars by selling cookies at a bake sale. After paying Debbie back for the borrowed sum of money, Jeanette has 28 dollars left. What was the sum of money divided by 8 that Jeanette owed Debbie?"

Hope this helps!! Let me know if you have ANY questions.

Is a triangle with the given side lengths of 15cm, 17cm, and 19cm a right triangle?

Alexandra [31]

Lets see!
We need to use the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) to check.
So..
15^2+ 17^2 = 19^2
225+ 289= 361
Hm 225 and 289 do NOT equal 361 therefore it is NOT a right triangle.

A fair coin is flipped twelve times. What is the probability of the coin landing tails up exactly nine times?

seraphim [82]

Answer:

$P\left(E\right)=\frac{55}{1024}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a fair coin is flipped twelve times.

It means the number of possible sequences of heads and tails would be:

2¹² = 4096

We can determine the number of ways that such a sequence could contain exactly 9 tails is the number of ways of choosing 9 out of 12, using the formula

$nCr=\frac{n!}{r!\left(n-r\right)!}$
