The more times you do a test, the more accurate the results will be.

Since there are only 2 options/sides the probability should be 1/2 for both heads and tails. 

Her error was both mathematical (her experimental probability number didn't make sense) and her lack of sufficient testing.

In AVWX, XV<br> W X and mW<br> - 27°. Find m_X.
SashulF [63]

Answer:

m<X = 126^{o}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given isosceles triangle, we have;

<W and <V as the base angles

So that,

m<W = m<V = 27 (base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal)

Thus,

m<X + m<V + m<W = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle)

m<X + 27 + 27 = 180

m<X + 54 = 180

m<X = 180 - 54

       = 126

m<X = 126^{o}

Compared to last year, the population of boom town has increased by 25%. The population is now 6,600. What was the population la
prisoha [69]

Answer:

5280people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Percentage increase of population  = 25%

Population now = 6600

Unknown:

Population last year = ?

Solution:

Let the population last year = y;

   Then;

   Percentage of last years population plus the population of last year should give us this year's population;

         (\frac{25}{100} of y) + y  = 6600  

           0.25y + y = 6600

            1.25y = 6600

                   y = \frac{6600}{1.25}   = 5280people

Last year, there was 5280people in the locality.

Please help me out..
sdas [7]

Answer:

x=41

y=139

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y = 180  since they form a straight line

y is 3x +16

y = 3x +16

Replace y in the first equation

x+3x +16 = 180

Combine like terms

4x +16 = 180

Subtract 16 from each side

4x+16-16 =180-16

4x =164

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 =164/4

x = 41

y = 3x +16

y = 3*41 +16 = 123+16 =139
