Answer:

The probability that a fair coin lands tail up is 1/2, which is equal to 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two possible outcomes when a coin is flipped (saving for the case when the coin lands on its side.)

  1. The coin lands head-up;
  2. The coin lands tail-up.

If the coin is fair, the two outcomes should be equally likely. In that case, apply the following formula:

\begin{aligned}&\text{Probability that the coin lands tail-up}\\ =&\frac{\text{Number of outcomes that the coin lands tail-up}}{\text{Total Number of equally-likely possible outcomes}}\\=&\frac{1}{2} \\=& 0.5 \end{aligned}.

Credit for the phrasing of this probability formula goes to the Khan Academy article "Probability: the basics".

The value of Adam's model railway is $550.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:(c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The initial value of Adam's model is A_o=\$550

the value increases exponentially with the rate of r\%

Time period t=5\ years

Final amount A=\$736

Exponential growth is given by

\Rightarrow A=A_o(1+r)^t

Putting values

\Rightarrow 736=550(1+r)^5\\\\\Rightarrow (1+r)^5=1.338

\Rightarrow 1+r=1.05999\\\Rightarrow r=0.05999\ or\ 5.99\%\approx 6\%

Option (c) is correct

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

$84

Step-by-step explanation:

720x30=21600

21600/100=216

216=markdown (as a number instead of a percentage)

Now subtract that like this

720-216=504

504= sale price

Then do this

504-420=84

<em><u>Therefore it is $84</u></em>
