You have 100 quarters in a jar. One of the quarters is double sided (heads). You pick out a random quarter and flip it 7 times,

and get all heads. what is the probability you picked the double sided quarter? Then, given that you flipped it 7 times with all heads, what is the probability that you'll get heads on the 8th flip?

Answer:

Probability of having the double sided coin is 1 %

Probability of getting heads on the next flip is 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given to us in the question we have a total of 100 coins in the bag and only 1 is double heads. Therefore the probability of you picking the double sided coin is \frac{1}{100} or 1 % . This probability is not affected by the fact that the coin you chose got heads 7 times in 7 flips.

Since a coin has 2 sides and you do not know whether the coin you have is the double sided coin then you have to assume that it is a normal 2 sided coin. Therefore a normal 2 sided coin has a probability of \frac{1}{2} or 50% with every flip of getting heads.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

The lengths of two sides of a triangle are given. describe the lengths possible for the third side.
vodomira [7]

Answer:

7m and 17m

Step-by-step explanation:

The length would be between 7m and 17m. This is because since the sum of two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. The sum of the third side and 6 must give us something greater than 12. This means the least the length can be is 7m. Since 6+12=18, the third side also has to be less than 18. This means the greatest the length can be is 17m.

A ship is moving at a speed of 30 km/h parallel to a straightshoreline. The ship is 6 km from the shore and it passes alighthous
natita [175]

Answer:

A)  S = f(d) = √(36 + d²)

B)  d = g(t) = 30t

C)  f o g = √(36 + 900t²)

Explanation:  

A) Express the distance s between the lighthouse and the ship as a function of d, the distance the ship has traveled since noon;that is, find f so that s = f(d)

Refer to the attached image and observe that ship starts moving from point I towards point N which represents the position of ship at noon.

From point I to point N ship covers the distance d.

From point I to point L (lighthouse) the distance is S.

A triangle is formed and we want the distance S so we will apply the Pythagorean theorem

IL² = NL² + IN²

S² = 6² + d²

S = √(36 + d²)

Therefore, the function is S = f(d) = √(36 + d²)

B) Express d as a function of t, the time elapsed since noon;that is, find g, so that d = g(t)

Since the ship is moving at a speed of 30 km/h and let t represents the time taken to move from I to N then

d = 30t

or

d = g(t) = 30t

C) Find f o g. What does this function represent?

Since we have already found f(d) and g(t) we can find f o g.

f(d) = √(36 + d²) and d = g(t) = 30t

substitute d = g(t) = 30t into f(d)

f o g = √(36 + (g(t))²)

f o g = √(36 + (30t)²)

f o g = √(36 + 900t²)

This function simply represents the distance from point I to point N to point L which is the longer distance from the initial position of ship to the lighthouse.

Solve the following equation. x/3 - 4 = 10
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: x=42


Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

- Solve for x.

- Add 10 and 4.

- Multiply the sum of 10 and 4 by 3. You must move it from the left member to the right member. Then, if  3 is dividing x, this will multiply the sum of 10 and 4. So, you have:

x/3=10+4\\x/3=14\\x=42

Therefore, you obtain that the value of x is 42

About how much more grape juice and orange juice is used in the punch
agasfer [191]

3 1/3 --> 3 8/24 --> 80/24

6 1/2 --> 6 12/24 --> 156/24

4 1/8 --> 4 3/24 --> 99/24

1 1/4 --> 1 6/24 --> 30/24

About how much more grape juice <u><em>and </em></u>orange juice is used in the punch

80/24+156/24 = 59/6 or 236/24

99/24+30/24= 43/8 or 129/24

236/24-129/24= 107/24 cups OR 4.458 cups OR 4 11/24 cups

About how much more grape juice <u><em>than </em></u>orange juice is used in the punch

3 1/3 --> 3 8/24 --> 80/24

6 1/2 --> 6 12/24 --> 156/24

approximately -3

hope this helps!
