Answer: Sequence B is more probable than A.

Step-by-step explanation:

This two sequences are not equally probable. Sequence B is more probable than A due to the equal chances of getting head (H) and a tail (T). The probability of getting a head is equal to the probability of getting a tail which is 4/8 i.e 0.5

The sequence A is less probable because the head(H) occur more than tail (T). The probability of head occurring is almost a sure event i.e 1 which is not feasible.

Given right triangle ABC with altitude BD drawn to hypotenuse AC. If AC =16 and DC=5 what is the length of BC in the simplest ra
Nana76 [90]

The length of BC is 4 \sqrt{5}.

Solution:

Given ABC is a right triangle.

AC is the hypotenuse and BD is the altitude.

AB and BC are legs of the triangle ABC.

AC = 16 and DC = 5

<u>Leg rule of geometric mean theorem:</u>

$\frac{\text { hypotenuse }}{\text { leg }}=\frac{\text { leg }}{\text { part }}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{AC}{BC}=\frac{BC}{DC}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{16}{x}=\frac{x}{5}$

Do cross multiplication.

\Rightarrow  16\times 5 = x\times x

\Rightarrow  80= x^2

\Rightarrow  16\times 5= x^2

Taking square root on both sides.

\Rightarrow  \sqrt{16\times 5} = \sqrt{x^2}

\Rightarrow  \sqrt{4^2\times 5} = \sqrt{x^2}

square and square roots get canceled, we get

\Rightarrow  4\sqrt{ 5} = x

The length of BC is 4 \sqrt{5}.
