Answer:

The probability of friend A winning with HH = 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event, A is P(A) given by the relationship;

P(A) = (The number of required outcome)/(The number of possible outcomes)

The parameters given are;

The condition of friend A winning = Coin toss sequence HH shows up

The condition of friend B winning = Coin toss sequence TH shows up

The number of possible outcomes = TT, TH, HH, HT = 4

(TH and HT are taken as different for the game to be fair)

The number of required outcome = HH = 1

Therefore;

The probability of friend A winning with HH = 1/4.

Answer:

the percent reduction is <u>33.6%</u> and the number of people who were issued a parking ticket are <u>42</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Last month in the village of 125 people were issued a parking ticket.

This month only 83 people were issued one.

Now, to find the percent reduction from this month to last month and the number of people who were issued a Parking ticket.

So, the reduction of the number of people who were issued a Parking ticket from this month to last month are:

125 people - 83 people = 42 people.

Thus, 42 people reduction from this month to last month.

Now, to get the percent reduction:

\frac{42}{125}\times 100.

=\frac{4200}{125}

=\ 33.6\%

Therefore, the percent reduction is 33.6% and the number of people who were issued a parking ticket are 42.

To determine the number of squirrels in a conservation area a researcher cashers tags and releases 114 squirrels you later catch
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

336 squirrels

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a Mark-Recapture method.

-The population is estimated using the formula:

N=\frac{MC}{R}

where:

  • N-is the estimated population size.
  • M-is the number of individuals tagged
  • C- is the total number captured the second time(both tagged and untagged)
  • R-is the total number of tagged individuals recaptured.

#We substitute our values as follows to estimate N:

N=\frac{MC}{R}\\\\=\frac{114\times 97}{33}\\\\=335.0909\approx336

Hence, there are approximately 336 squirrels in the conservation area.

*population is always rounded up to the next whole number.
