(NOTE: H1 = heads on the first roll, H2 = heads on the second roll, etc.)
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.

lisabon 2012 [21]

we are given:

Selling price=$40.00

Fixed cost=$72000.00

Cost per piece=$32.00

Let x products be sold to break-even then

\\ \ 40x=7200+32x\\ \\ \ \Rightarrow 40x-32x=7200\\ \\ \ 8x=7200\Rightarrow x=\frac{7200}{8}=900\\

Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Jacinda:  d = 10 * t  ( a rate: 10 miles per hour )
Raj :  d = 1.5 + 4.5 * t
Jacinda will catch up with Raj when:
10 t = 1.5 + 4.5 t
10 t - 4.5 t = 1.5
5.5 t = 1.5
t = 1.5 : 5.5 = 0.27 hours = 16.2 min  =  16 min 12 seconds
