<h2>Answer:</h2>

1. A coin is tossed four times. What is the probability of getting four heads?

Each toss has a 1/2 chance of getting a head.

So the chance of getting all four heads can be calculated as :

1/2\times1/2\times1/2\times1/2=1/16

2. A coin is tossed four times. What is the probability of getting two heads?

Each toss can have 2 results, so 4 flips will have 2^{4} or 16 results.

Getting two heads means getting two tails also. So, we can get the number of times two heads come = \frac{4!}{2!2!} = 6

We can write the groups like - {HHTT,HTHT,HTTH,THHT,THTH,TTHH}

So, the required probability is : 6/16 or 3/8.

3. Not getting two heads means getting 3 tails and 1 head or all tails.

Probability of having all tails = 1/2\times1/2\times1/2\times1/2=1/16

Probability of one head(1st trial) and three tails = 1/16

Probability of one head (2nd trial) and three tails (the 1st, 3rd and 4th trials) = 1/16

Probability of one head (3rd trial) and three tails (the 1st, 2nd and 4th trials) = 1/16

Probability of one head (4th trial) and three tails (the 1st, 2nd and 3rd trials) = 1/16

So, the total probability showing only one or none head and at least three tails = 1/16+1/16+1/16+1/16+1/16=5/16

Select the correct answer. Evaluate the following expression when x = -4 and y = 4. A. B. C. D.
andriy [413]

The value of given expression when x=-4 and y=4 is 1250.

The expression is missing in the question which is \dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}.

We have to solve it for x= -4 and y = 4.

Now putting the value of x and y we get,

\dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}=\dfrac{(-4)^6-(-4)}{4}

\dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}=\dfrac{4096+4}{4}

\dfrac{x^6-x}{4y}=1250

Hence the value of given expression when x=-4 and y=4 is 1250.

Brandon set a goal of running 12 miles per week on Monday he ran 4 3/4 miles on Wednesday he ran 3 1/3 miles on Friday he ran 1
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

9.7303888 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Set target = 12 miles per week.

Miles ran on Monday = 4 3/4 miles

Miles ran on Wednesday = 3 1/3 miles

Miles ran on Friday = 1 11/17 miles

Number of miles covered for the week:

(miles covered on Monday + miles covered on Wednesday + miles covered on Friday)

= (4 3/4 + 3 1/3 + 1 11/17) miles

= (19/4 + 10/3 + 28/17) miles

= (4.75 + 3.33333 + 1.6470588) miles

= 9.7303888 miles
