Answer:

0.9375

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of coin tosses = 7

Probability that number of heads obtained will be between 2 and 7 inclusive?

x = 2,3,4,5,6,7

Probability (P) = number of required outcomes / total possible outcomes

For a coin toss = 1 Head (H), 1 tail (T)

P(H) = 1 / 2

P(X) = C(7,x) * (1/2)^7

P(X) = C(7, x) / 0.5^-7

P(X) = [C(7,2) + C(7, 3)+ C(7,4) +C(7,5) + C(7,6) +C(7,7)] / 128

P(X) = (21 + 35 + 35 + 21 + 7 + 1) / 128

P(X) = 120 / 128

P(X) = 0.9375

Identify whether the function graphed has an odd or even degree and a positive or negative leading coefficient.
sukhopar [10]

Answer: odd and positive

How to find number of degrees: Count the number of turns and add one. In this case you have 4 curves, so 4+1= 5.

How to find leading coefficient: look at the RIGHT side of the graph, the arrow is going towards positive infinity, thus making the leading coefficient positive.

A flat rectangular piece of aluminum has a perimeter of 62 inches. The length is 15
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

So, the required width of rectangular piece of aluminium is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Perimeter of rectangular piece of aluminium = 62 inches

Let width of rectangular piece of aluminium = w

and length of rectangular piece of aluminium  = w+15

We need to find width i.e value of x

The formula for finding perimeter of rectangle is: Perimeter=2(Length+Width)\\

Now, Putting values in formula for finding Width w:

Perimeter=2(Length+Width)\\\\62=2(w+15+w)\\62=2(2w+15)\\62=4w+30\\62-30=4w\\4w=32\\w=\frac{32}{4}\\w=8

After solving we get the width of rectangular piece :w = 8

So, the required width of rectangular piece of aluminium is 8 inches
