If 20 coins are tossed, find the probability that they'll all land on tails.

1 answer:

5 0

The odds of 1 coin landing tails is 1/2, for 2 coins it would be 1/4, 3 would be 1/8, 4 would be 1/16, etc.

the way you find this is by doing 1/2^n where n is the number of coins you have. if you plug in 20, you get 1/1,048,576

Gnesinka [82]

Answer: There are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of nickels, y = Number of quarters.

As per given,

x+y = 205 ...(i)

0.05x+0.25y = 31.85 ... (ii) [1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $ 0.25]

Multiply (ii) by 20, we get

x+5y=637 ...(iii)

Eliminate (i) from (iii)

4y = 432

⇒ y = 108 [Divide both sides by 4]

Put value of y in (i), we get

$108+x=205\Rightarrow\ x= 97$

Hence, there are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
