You have a 4/7 chance that both will be gold

The exact vaule of cos(247.5 degrees)

Leni [432]

$cos(247.5 deg)=cos( \frac{495deg}{2})
 = - \sqrt{ \frac{1+cos(495deg)}{2} } 
 = -\sqrt{ \frac{1- \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{2} }{2} } 
 = \frac{ \sqrt{2- \sqrt{2} } }{2}$

lorasvet [3.4K]

Since q+d=19, we can re-write this as d=19-q. Using the second equation 0.25q+0.1d=4 we can multiply both sides by 100. So we get 25q+10d=400. So now we can plug d=19-q into 25q+10d=400. So now we get, 25q+190-10q=400. Subtracting both sides by 190, we get 15q=210 and that q=14 plugging that in d=5

A random variable x takes four possible values, 0, 2, a, and b, where a and b are unknown numbers. if pr[x = 0] = 0.2, pr[x=2] =

Alexus [3.1K]

$\displaystyle\sum_{x\in\{0,2,a,b\}}\mathbb P(X=x)=1$
$\mathbb P(X=0)+\mathbb P(X=2)+\mathbb P(X=a)+\mathbb P(X=b)=1$
$0.2+0.4+0.3+\mathbb P(X=b)=1$
$\implies\mathbb P(X=b)=0.1$

$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle\sum_{x\in\{0,2,a,b\}}x\mathbb P(X=x)=2.8$
$0\mathbb P(X=0)+2\mathbb P(X=2)+a\mathbb P(X=a)+b\mathbb P(X=b)=2.8$
$0.8+0.3a+0.1b=2.8$
$0.3a+0.1b=2$

$a+b=6\implies0.3a+0.1b=0.2a+0.1(6)=2$
$0.2a+0.6=2\implies0.2a=1.4\implies a=7$
