Answer: Joe is right, the probability of getting exactly two heads in the four flips is greater than the probability of getting heads on both the first and second flips.

Step-by-step explanation:

First creating a sample space :

HHHH, HHHT, TTHT, HTTH, THHH, TTTT, TTTH, TTHH, HTHH, HTTT, HHTT, THTH, HHTH, THTT, HTHT, THHT

A fair coin (H - HEAD, T - TAIL)

Probability = (required outcome / possible outcome)

Probability getting exactly two heads in first four flips:

= 6/16 = 3/8

Probability of getting head on both the first and second flips :

= 4/16 = 1/4

Therefore Joe is right, the probability of getting exactly two heads in the four flips is greater than the probability of getting heads on both the first and second flips.

If x = 2.7, 5x = ____. (Input decimals only, such as 12.7.)
lukranit [14]

Answer:

5x=13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, we know that 1x=2.7. So, if we want 5x we need to multiply 2.7*5 becuase 1x=2.7, so 5x=2.7*5.

Multiply. 2.7*5=13.5

So, 5x=13.5.

Hope this helps!
