UNO [17]3 years ago

The number is 10.
x/5 = x-8
You multiply both sides by 5.
x = 5(x-8)
x = 5x-40
Subtract 5x from both sides
-4x = -40
x= -40 / -4
x=10

Discrete MathA coin is flipped four times. For each of the events described below, express the event as a set in roster notation
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

a) 25%

b) 50%

c) 87.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2^4 = 16 number of outcome in total.

a)First and last flips come up heads. There are 4 outcomes here. Probability of the event is 4/16 = 1/4, or 25%.

- HHHH

- HHTH

- HTHH

- HTTH

b) at least 2 Consecutive flips that is heads. There are 8 outcomes. Probability of event is 8/16 = 1/2, or 50%

- HHHH

- HHHT

- HHTH

- HHTT

- THHH

- THHT

- HTHH

- TTHH

c) At least 2 consecutive flips that are the same. There are 14 outcomes. Probability of 14/16 = 7/8, or 87.5%

- HHHH

- HHHT

- HHTH

- HHTT

- THHH

- THHT

- HTHH

- TTHH

Segment FG begins at point F(-2, 4) and ends at point G (-2, -3). Segment FG is translated by (x, y) → (x – 3, y + 2) and then r
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The length of the segment F'G' is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Linear Algebra we define reflection across the y-axis as follows:

(x',y')=(-x, y), \forall\, x, y\in \mathbb{R} (Eq. 1)

In addition, we get this translation formula from the statement of the problem:

(x',y') =(x-3,y+2), \forall \,x,y\in \mathbb{R} (Eq. 2)

Where:

(x, y) - Original point, dimensionless.

(x', y') - Transformed point, dimensionless.

If we know that F(x,y) = (-2, 4) and G(x,y) = (-2,-3), then we proceed to make all needed operations:

Translation

F''(x,y) = (-2-3,4+2)

F''(x,y) = (-5,6)

G''(x,y) = (-2-3,-3+2)

G''(x,y) = (-5,-1)

Reflection

F'(x,y) = (5, 6)

G'(x,y) = (5,-1)

Lastly, we calculate the length of the segment F'G' by Pythagorean Theorem:

F'G' = \sqrt{(5-5)^{2}+[(-1)-6]^{2}}

F'G' = 7

The length of the segment F'G' is 7.
