Divide the limit by the weight of one book to find the number of books allowed.

70/12 = 5.833 books

You cannot send a part of a book, so round down. The answer is 5 books.

You are given 3 to 1 odds against tossing three tails with three​ coins, meaning you win ​$3 if you succeed and you lose ​$1 if
valentina_108 [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

  • To find the E(X) expected value, you come up with the different probabilities for each outcome
  • your set of outcomes after 3 tosses would be = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT} where H is heads and T is tails
  • Each element has a probability of 1/8 so let x represent number of tails
  • Probability(x)=P(x)\\P(0)=\frac{1}{8} \\P(1)=\frac{3}{8} \\P(2)=\frac{3}{8} \\P(3)=\frac{1}{8}
  • The E(x)=Summation (x times P(x))
  • E(X)=(0)(0.125)+(1)(0.375)+(2)(0.375)+(3)(0.125)=1.5
  • Now which probability is 1.5 tails? None, so it is either 2 tails or 1 tails
  • So you can expect to lose money in 1 game
  • But as you play more games the probability of getting 3 tails becomes more and more likely, so you can expect to win in a 100 games

2m divided by 3/9; m = 3/2
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Not completely sure but I think 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this equation, you would need to first multiply m by 2 to get 2 m. 3/2=1.5; 1.5*2 =3. 3/9 simplifies to 1/3

Then you would want to solve. So, you would need to divide 2 by 1/3 which would give you 9.

Determine the graph of the polar equation r =6/2-2cos theta<br> (picture provided)
vredina [299]

Answer:

Choice D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to write the polar equation of the conic section in standard form by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2;

r=\frac{3}{1-cos(theta)}

The eccentricity of this conic section is thus 1, the coefficient of cos θ. Thus, this conic section is a parabola since its eccentricity is 1.

The value of the directrix is determined as;

d = k/e = 3/1 = 3

The denominator of the polar equation of this conic section contains (-cos θ) which implies that this parabola opens towards the right and thus the equation of its directrix is;

x = -3

Thus, the polar equation represents a parabola that opens towards the right with a directrix located at  x = -3. Choice D fits this criteria
