Look at it this way:
When you flip a coin, the probability of it landing with EITHER side showing
is 100%.
This leads us to the rule ...
The sum of the probabilities of
all possible outcomes is 100%.
For a coin: (probability of heads) plus (probability of tails) = 100%.
That just says: We're 100% sure that the coin will land with either
heads or tails up.
An "honest" coin gets heads 50% of the time and tails the other 50%.
But if the coin is all bent and squashed and has a feather stuck to
one side and a wad of gum on the other side so that it comes up
heads 70% of the time, then the coin isn't 'honest'. But it still has to
land EITHER heads OR tails, so the sum of the probabilities is still 100%.
So the probability of heads is 30%.
60/100 = 8/x
Multiply both sides by 100
60 = 800/x
Multiply both sides by x
60x = 800
Divide both sides by 60
x = 13.3333333333333
0.3 • x = answer
Answer = 4
Answer:
Your answer will be one-third. I hope this will help you.
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we must solve a system of two equations with two unknowns, given by "x" and "y".
We have:
We multiply (2) by -1:
We add (1) and (3):
Clearing x:
We substitute 
in (2)
Thus, the solution of the system is 
Answer:
The solution of the system is
