A) P(4 heads in a row) = P(H1) x P(H2) x P(H3) x P(H4)

Answer:

Option A) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability refers to the occurrence of some event.

To find: the probability of flipping a coin and getting four heads in a row.

Let H_1,H_2,H_3,H_4 denote heads on the first, second, third and fourth roll.

According to multiplicative law of probability,

The probability of occurrence of two or more events occurring together is equal to the product of the probability of occurrence of each of the events.

Using this rule, the probability of flipping a coin and getting four heads in a row is equal to

P=P(H_1)\times P(H_2)\times P(H_3)\times P(H_4)

Option A) is correct.

How many boys are there in a group of 27 students if there are four-fifths as many girls as there are boys?
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

15 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 27 students. The number of girls is only 4/5 of the number of boys. I started by splitting the class. 14 boys and 13 girls doesn't work, so I changed it to 12 and 15. If it was 12 girls and 15 boys, the girls would have 4/5 of the boys, so it must be 12 girls and 15 boys.
