a coin is tossed, then a letter in the word accomplishment is chosen at random. find the probability of heads, then a vowel

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{52}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Coin toss:

$Total\ outcome=\{H,T\}\\\\Favourable\ outcome=\{H\}\\\\P(Head)=\frac{Favourable\ outcome}{Number\ of\ total\ outcome}\\\\P(Head)=\frac{1}{2}$

Letter Selection:

$Number\ of\ total\ outcomes=26\ \ \ \ \ \ \ as\ total\ letters\ are\ 26\\\\Favourable\ outcomes=5\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ as\ there\ are\ 5\ vowels\\\\P(vowel)=\frac{Favourable\ outcomes}{Number\ of\ total\ outcomes}\\\\P(vowel)=\frac{5}{26}$

$These\ two\ events\ are\ independent.\\\\Hence\ probability\ of\ head\ and\ then\ vowel=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{5}{26}=\frac{5}{52}$

in an ordered pair,the x-coordinate represents the number of hexagons and the y-coordinate represents the total number of sides.

AysviL [449]

The y-coordinate is 42.

Hexagons have 6 sides. Since the x-coordinate is 7, there are 7 hexagons. 7 hexagons * 6 sides each = 42 sides for the y-coordinate.
