The answer is false.

Exactly <em>1 </em>tail would mean the probability is 1/2.

When tossing 2 coins the probability of getting one tail is:

P(HT)+P(TH)

P(HT)=(1/2)^2=1/4 and P(TH)=(1/2)^2=1/4

P(HT or TH)=1/4+1/4=2/4=1/2

One day a store sold 21 sweatshirts. white ones cost​ $9.95 and yellow ones cost $ 11.50. in​ all, ​$235.30 worth of sweatshirts
FromTheMoon [43]
For this problem you have yo set up two equations.

White shirts = w Yellow shirts = y

1st: w + y = 21
2nd: 9.95w + 11.50y = 235.30

Now we're going to do system of equations using substitution.

If w + y = 21, then y = 21 - w
If y = 21 - w, then you can substitute this in the second equation for y.

9.95w + 11.50(21 - w) = 235.30
9.95w + 241.5 - 11.50w = 235.30
-1.55w + 241.5 = 235.30
-1.55w = -6.2
w = 4, so 4 whites shirt were sold.

Now I'm finding out how many yellow shirts were sold using one of the two equations at the top.

w + y = 21
4 + y = 21
y = 17

So 17 yellow shirts were sold and 4 white shirts were sold.

the number of three-digit numbers with distinct digits that be formed using the digits 1,2,3,5,8 and 9 is . The probability that
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

a)120

b)6.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

No. of digits given= 6

Digits given= 1,2,3,5,8,9

Number to be formed should be 3-digits, as we have to choose 3 digits from given 6-digits so the no. of combinations will be

6P3= 6!/3!

      = 6*5*4*3*2*1/3*2*1

      =6*5*4

      =120

Now finding the probability that both the first digit and the last digit of the three-digit number are even numbers:

As the first and last digits can only be even

then the form of number can be

a)2n8 or

b)8n2

where n can be 1,3,5 or 9

4*2=8

so there can be 8 three-digit numbers with both the first digit and the last digit even numbers

And probability = 8/120

                          = 0.0667

                          =6.67%

The probability that both the first digit and the last digit of the three-digit number are even numbers is 6.67% !
