50% chance of getting heads or 25%

The answer depends on how many times you flipped it.
If you flipped the coin once, the probability is zero. No coin has 2 heads.

If you flipped the coin twice, the probability is 1 out of 4. This is because there are four possible outcomes when you flip a coin twice (both heads, both tails, first time head second time tail, first time tail second time head). Hope this helps!

An advertising agency notices that approximately 1 in 50 potential buyers of a product sees a given magazine ad, and 1 in 8 sees

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Probability = 0.12025

Step-by-step explanation:

P (Am) = 1/50 = 0.02 {Magazine ad}

P (At) = 1/8 = 0.125 {Television ad}

P (Am ∩ At ) = 1/100 = 0.01 {Both ads}

P (Am U At) = P (Am) + P (At) - P (Am ∩ At )

= 0.02 + 0.125 - 0.01

P (Am U At) = 0.135 {Person sees either ad}

P (Am' ∩ At') = 1 - P (Am U At)

P (Am' ∩ At') = 1 - 0.135 = 0.865 {Person sees none ad}

Prob (Purchase) = Prob (Purchase with ad) + Prob (purchase without ad)

P (P/ A) = 1/4 = 0.25 , P (P / A') = 1/10 = 0.1

P (P) = (0.25) (0.135) + (0.1) (0.865)

= 0.03375 + 0.0865

0.12025

Suppose you choose a team of two people from a group of n > 1 people, and your opponent does the same (your choices are allow

jonny [76]

Answer:

The number of possible choices of my team and the opponents team is

$\left\begin{array}{ccc}n-1\\E\\n=1\end{array}\right i^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

selecting the first team from n people we have $\left(\begin{array}{ccc}n\\1\\\end{array}\right) = n$ possibility and choosing second team from the rest of n-1 people we have $\left(\begin{array}{ccc}n-1\\1\\\end{array}\right) = n-1$
