Calculate the probability of landing at most 1 head when a 0.6-biased coin is tossed

Mathematics
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

\frac{2^{n-1}}{5^n}(2n+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the coin is 0.6 biased means p=0.6=\frac{6}{10}=\frac{3}{5}

q =1-p=1-\frac{3}{5}=\frac{2}{5}

We have to find the at most one head means sum of probability of 0 head and 1 head

So p=p(x=0)+p(x=1)

From binomial distribution the probability is given by p=^nC_rp^rq^{n-r}

So probability p=^nC_0\frac{3}{5}^0\frac{2}{5}^{n-0}+^nC_1\frac{3}{5}^1\frac{2}{5}^{n-1}=\frac{2^{n-1}}{5^n}(2n+3)

Simple geometry problem
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I gather that you need to find the area of the sector and then subtract from it the area of the segment to get the area of the triangle (although there are other ways in which to find the area of the triangle).

The area of a sector is:

A=\frac{\theta}{360}\pi r^2 where our angle is given as 34, pi is 3.1415, and the radius is 5:

A=\frac{34}{360}(3.1415)(25) and if you multiply and divide that all out you get that the area of the sector is:

A = 7.417

Now subtract from it the area of the segment, 2.209. to get the area of the triangle:

7.417 - 2.209 = 5.208

Help me solve this problem
Gennadij [26K]

The value of GK = 18.6, GM = 14.5 AND JZ = 19.9.

From the figure:

MZ is a perpendicular bisector of ∆GHJ.

GM = MJ

GM = 14.5

KZ is a perpendicular bisector of ∆GHJ.

GK = KH

GK = 18.6

Z is the circumcenter of ∆GHJ.

JZ = GZ

JZ = 19.9

Therefore the value of GK = 18.6, GM = 14.5 AND JZ = 19.9.

Stan invests $5000, some at 6% interest and the rest at 4.5% interest. If x is the amount he invests at 6%, then the amount inve
Bumek [7]
Let's say that Stan invested $1500 at 6%.  To find how much he invested at 4.5% would be 5000 - 1500 = $3500.  Now we have a pattern.  Now let's say stan invested x dollars. Even though it is unknown, we can set up how much is left.  So subtract x from 5000 or 5000 - x which is C
